if you had one wish.

[Canadamus Prime]

I can't really think of one wish that would make me happy except maybe financial stability, but even then I still won't be happy just less stressed.

I would wish for the super power to turn things I touch into gold, making it very VERY clear that I want total control over this power. None of that Midas touch shit where it's just everything I touch no matter what. I make sure my wish grants me 100% total control over this power. No weird malfunctions, no having it go off while I'm sleeping or making love or anything weird like that.

I get a kick-ass super power, never have to work another day in my life, and there's absolutely no downside

 

[Alcom1]

I would like a duplicate of myself, preferably by some mitotic process so both mes are equal in origin. I'm pretty happy with my life, except my career and hobby choices tend to involve a lot of tedium, and I could get them done faster if there were two of me.

Also, I frequently fail to find friends who share the same gaming interests as me, and a majority of the games I have played I've never been able to enjoy a good multiplayer experience. Where we do share the same gaming interests, my friends still have a habit of getting bored with games a lot earlier than I do. I could use another me to better fulfill my gaming demands.

Personally I'd wish that nobody had physical needs (eating, sleeping, drinking etc.). I don't like having them, they remind me that I'm human and limit my capacity to accomplish things, but I feel like it would solve a lot of problems if nobody was dying of hunger or thirst or whatnot, as well as eliminating all the land usage for keeping everyone fed. You could still do these things, if you so desired, but it's no longer necessary.

 

[Leemaster777]

I've got it all planned out. I'd wish for the Midas touch, except I can totally control it. That more-or-less gives me infinite money as long as I don't just go handing gold to everyone on the street. From there:

Step 1: Use my newfound wealth to buy a small country.
Step 2: Make gold that country's chief export.
Step 3: Use my now even greater wealth to just be an awesome guy.

What does this entail? Well:

Buy Rare back from Microsoft, give them a swift kick in the ass, and get them back to making awesome platformers like they did in the cartridge days. On all platforms.

Pay to have the ending of Samurai Jack finally get made.

Buy the movie rights to Spiderman and the X-Men. Give to Marvel Studios. Cue fireworks.

Oh, and I'm sure I'll support researching alternative fuel, and space travel, and all that boring stuff, too.

 

[Jux]

I would like the power to make people poo out of their mouths.

Edit: As an afterthought, they would also have to eat with their asses.

This is the funniest, and grossest thing I've heard in a long time.

I would wish for omnipotence too probably. Barring that, particle manipulation at the subatomic level would be cool.

 

[Genericjim101]

Mike Carey's "Lucifer" spin-off from Sandman has taught me that omnipotence is boring and trapping. I think I'd rather
wish to be in control of an omnipotent force that be an omnipotent force.

TBH... I'm going with wishing for the detached control of an omnipotent power to solve problems. Most importantly physical impairments. In a benevolent sense not a eugenics sense XD.
