Wish #1: Wish for an infinite amount of wishes. Duh!
Wish #2: Wish that the genie (or whoever/whatever is granting my wish) reads my mind and grants the wish according to how I envision it and not any other way. (No Wishmaster shit. :P )
Wish #3 and beyond: Whatever I feel like doing. :lol:

[1] More wishes
[2] An Island fortress with a landmass of the UK and Ireland combine
[3] 10 trillion dollars
[4] A massive completely loyal army with the most modern equipment both existing and theorized.
[5] A huge stock of thermonuclear arms to carry out my planned cleansing
[6] A device, which can alter physics as I see fit
[7] A device, which can open portals to other realities
[8] A Culture Rapid Offensive Unit with the reality portal device onboard to hunt down people I don't like a billion times over throughout the multiverse.
[9] James Cameron to actually make Terminator Three, and with a half billion budget
[10] The ability to alter or reverse the rate at which I age at will.
[11] Less body hair
[12] To be deiced
Now of course if "No wishing for more wishes" is an issue my list would be like this..

[1] Wish I could wish for more wishes :twisted:
[2] Wish for more wishes
[3] Revert to #2 of my first list.

That is the PERFECT way to do this. Since the thread creator didn't give ANY limits on this.

Actually, I would swap 1 and 2. Some how or another I think the Genie would try and twist the first wish. But forcing them into granting the wishes you want the way you want is perfect. Though to be safe, you might want to talk to a lawyer to make the language EXACT and can't be questioned in any way.

Ah...well seeing as I have infinite amounts of wishes, I'd wish that Mr. Lucas would be reverted back to his age when he made A New Hope and would remain in that physical condition forever to produce a never-ending supply of high-quality Star Wars movies. To reinforce that wish, I'd wish that every single one of them was completely perfect and that no one would ever grow tired of watching any of them. I'd also wish that he would make a series of SW vs ST movies. With Mr. Wong's permission, he would make Mr. Wong's fan fic into a series of movies, also perfect in every conceivable way. The production time for every movie would be less than a year, released annually on January 1st. And of course, I would have Mr. Lucas open up Lucasfilm theaters all around the world that would play all of his treasured Star Wars movies 24/7. I could keep going and going, but you get the point. :lol:

Very good points...however how could he twist around, "I wish I had an infinite amount of wishes."? If he could twist that around, that he could probably twist around #2 so it wouldn't matter anyway. LOL

1. Wish to use 3 times the capacity of my brain than I am currently using (most people use less than 10%)

2. The ability to make any and *all* psychic powers available to me (telekenisis, clairvoyance, clairaudience, apportation and the like)

3. To have permanent perfect health/extended lifespan.

Acquiring anything material would be gravy with this line of request... :wink:

This is a common fallacy. You are only actively using about 10% of your brain. Lets just say that 10% is the CPU. It is actively processing information. The other 90% if your RAM and Hard Drive. The reason is we know that the areas of the brain that are "not used" actually hold a lot of our short term memory, long term memory, have to do with our emotions, out character, who we are, our motor control. If we trully only used 10% of our brain that would mean we ought to be able to scope the rest out with an icecream scoop and it wouldn't affect is. Fact of the mater is, frontal lombtomies will lower your ICQ and change your personality, yet those areas "aren't used" like the 10%.

I would wish to have Q's powers as well as the ability to controll them properly and as I so choose. I could do whatever I want then. Literally. I would have absolute power over everything. :twisted: 8)

I would have a team of lawers sit down with me first and for two days strait we would draw a first draft of wishes to be overlooked by a judge and reviewed by said genie to see what exactly the outcome's of said wishes be. Remember ask, dont just say 'I wish.." gotta be specific. Like so.

Spongyblue(wishee) first spirtualy granted motion provided by Genie(wish giver){From this point on referred to as 'wish'}shall be as follows
Article 1 section 1
Spongyblue(wishee) hereby would like to be entilted by Genie(wish giver) by verbal agremeent between the two said parties, the abilities and knowledge to control said abilities of one Lord Darth Vader(TM LucasFilm) along with working,functioning and knowledge to control lightsaber of said individual character. LucasFilm does not have the right to pursue legal action over said spiritual/mystical contract since said parties are not in anyway profiting from said transaction. The Genie(wish giver) shall also not ask for anything from Spongyblu(wishee) in return i.e. soul,life,first born etc.


And that was just section one of the first wish. Keep goin that way till you get your three wishes and the genie cant pull no funcky shit on ya.

OK, my wishes...

1. To be of Amberite like power etc...

I don't think you need much after this.
Maybe just keep 2 wishes in reserve for emergency situations.

Wish 1:
Wish that the genie (or whoever/whatever is granting my wish) reads my mind and grants the wish according to how I envision it and not any other way. (No Wishmaster shit.)
Wish 2: Wish for an infinite amount of wishes.

Wish 3: Wish that only I can wish to the genie. ( just in case )

#4: Wish for every single Al-Quada ( SP?) member, its supporters, and Saddam to suffer in torment of ultimate pain and for the rest of eternity.

As for the rest, everything goes.
