I wish for a brand new car.

Granted, but you spend too long enjoying it and get a sunburn.

I wish for a brand new car.

It's a piece of garbage that requires constant maintenance to keep running, but you still pay full tax for it.

I wish for free time.

You come across a hotel in a bubble of distorted spacetime that slows down the passage if time so that 1 real world second is 30 minutes inside it. You can enter it and stay as long as you want for free, but it's run as a business and the receptionists charge you for everything you do inside it. You have to pay for food, technology, rented furniture, bedding, electricity and internet and phone service and even for the air you breathe inside. Also, there's a resort fee that they'll sneak into your bill unless you demand to have it waived.

I wish for an algorithm that determines the best possible investment for me.

Bucky
2022-05-05, 03:49 PM
The algorithm suggests you acquire four tons of various commercial explosives and get the largest life insurance policy available.

I wish for a cure for cancer.

The algorithm suggests you acquire four tons of various commercial explosives and get the largest life insurance policy available.

I wish for a cure for cancer.

You get a cure for Hyalinizing Clear Cell Carcinoma, the no.1 rarest cancer in the world with only 52 cases.

I wish for faster internet speeds.

Granted. Your internet browser now reads your mind to figure out what you're going to want to do and bring you the site content before you touch the screen or mouse. However, your wish has unlocked mind-reading technology for the world. The thought police now screen people for terrorist intentions and people are routinely arrested for thinking bad things about the president. You're now responsible for your own thoughts in this next-generation dystopia.

I wish every stock market was open 24 hours per day 7 days every week.

Dire Moose
2022-05-16, 03:56 PM
Granted. The global economy is now ruined as a result of bad decisions brought on by severe insomnia on the part of the stock traders.

I wish I could learn and use magic.

Rogan
2022-06-10, 12:54 PM
I wish I could learn and use magic.

Sure, here you go. It's not very powerful, but extremely taxing for your mind and body. To make things worse, nobody believes you, even if you try to prove that it's real magic.

I wish I could amplify the magic power of Dire Moose.

bug_sniper
2022-06-21, 10:21 PM
Granted. You amplify her power by giving up some of your own. You are now in a state of being 15 years older than you were.


Granted. The global economy is now ruined as a result of bad decisions brought on by severe insomnia on the part of the stock traders.

I wish I could find an investment that profits off of the now-ruined economy.

Bucky
2022-06-21, 10:31 PM
I'd suggest investing in funeral homes and a coffin manufacturer, soon to be popular among your friends.

I wish for a secure vault for my plentiful lucre.

Rogan
2022-06-23, 02:00 AM
I wish for a secure vault for my plentiful lucre.

Granted. It's one of the most secure places in the world. Unfortunately, it costs a fortune to rent, so even using all your belongings, you can only afford it for a weak. On the bright side, after this time you won't need such a secure place anymore.

I wish more people would play mafia games, which can be found in the structured games subsection of the forum. One of them has just started to recruit.

TwilightSandwic
2022-06-24, 07:40 AM
Granted, a billion people try and log into the structured games subsection of the forum at the same time and crash the servers.


I wish my dog wouldn't wake me up at strange hours.

Persolus
2022-06-29, 01:47 AM
Granted, it will now wake you up at regular hours - i.e. every two hours at regular intervals.

I wish I could always say the right thing to make people feel good.

Bucky
2022-06-30, 07:58 PM
Granted, but they'll be furious at you later when they find out you lied.

I wish for a weapon that can slay any foe.

Rogan
2022-07-02, 10:17 AM
I wish for a weapon that can slay any foe.

Granted. This rusty spoon is technically capable of slaying every foe. But the amount of force required to do so is beyond most mortals.

I wish I could fix every hardware problem with a single look. (No touch or other action necessary, just looking at this device)

DisavowedPaladi

Granted. You render hardware problems sterile instantly. Great for preventing nanites from replicating out of control or something. I can see why you wanted this in order to stay the advance of a potential technological singularity. Thank you.

I wish for something with the sound effect of “Spork”

somethingrandom
2022-08-22, 04:08 AM
Granted a floating bat made of a rubber like material that is immune to every attempt you make to harm or contain it appears and starts beating you to death and bouncy nature of the bat this will be a slow and painful death. When it hits you it makes the sound effect “Spork”

I wish DisavowedPaladi had a way of defending himself from the bat I just inflicted upon him

Granted. This way is using you as a living shield to take all the blows.

I wish for free wishes.

bug_sniper
2022-08-27, 12:14 AM
Granted. Wishes are now free from your command and obedience and are now free to refuse you what you ask and wish of them.

I wish I knew which sinister entity it is that makes motorcycles louder than cars.

Gold Leaf
2022-08-27, 07:45 AM
Granted. You now work for a sleazy company that makes motorcycle engines. The work environment is terrible, anti-union posters litter the walls, and worst of all, the noise is deafening.

I wish for the greatest pillow fort of all time.

Bucky
2022-08-27, 11:35 AM
Granted, the pillow fort is thirty miles wide and you're stranded in the middle with no food or water.

I wish I had plot armor.

somethingrandom
2022-08-29, 02:52 PM
You are become the main character in a book where the author is obsessed with torturing the main character. Anyone you fall for is guaranteed to die in the most traumatic way possible. Nothing you do ever goes right you life becomes constant heart break and pain but you can never die no matter what you or anyone else does.

I wish I had taken better care of my teeth

animorte
2022-08-29, 04:40 PM
Granted. You are renowned with the greatest teeth of the century. You have a multi-million dollar policy only for your teeth. Your smile is plastered on a wall in every city of the world. But nobody believes they're real and your parents were right, your face did get stuck that way.

I wish everybody was just a little more open-minded.

Dire Moose
2022-08-29, 10:24 PM
Granted, everyone’s brains explode.

I wish I wasn’t having such a bad day.

Gold Leaf
2022-08-30, 03:21 AM
Granted. It is now 11PM, the night right before that bad day.

I wish we could get more people RPing on the Nexus's new forum.

Rogan
2022-08-30, 10:20 AM
I wish we could get more people RPing on the Nexus's new forum.

Granted. Unfortunately, the server is not designed to support that many people, so average loading times are 5 minutes, with a total crash every 12 hours.

I wish to reverse the last three wishes.

Bucky
2022-08-30, 12:27 PM
Granted. In this exact order, the RP forum is abandoned after the server crash, Dire Moose's bad day is even worse the second time around, and people become incapable of understanding anything they don't already believe in.

I wish I understood astrophysics.

Caerulea
2022-09-05, 03:17 AM
Astrophysics works exactly as according to your current understanding! This is very bad for the stability of the solar system.

I wish I wasn't lazy!

Rogan
2022-09-05, 12:12 PM
I wish I wasn't lazy!

Granted. You turn into a workaholic and will suffer from burnout in approximately three days.

I wish I had some tasty food.

Persolus
2022-09-06, 03:45 PM
I wish I had some tasty food.

Granted: your favourite meal appears in your throat. All of it. At once.

I wish to win a small lottery.

somethingrandom
2022-09-11, 05:40 AM
I wish to win a small lottery.

Granted you win a small lottery you had not entered. The authorities immediately begin investigating you for fraud.

I wish it was easier to find a single bedroom flat in the city I live in.

Rogan
2022-09-11, 04:27 PM
I wish it was easier to find a single bedroom flat in the city I live in.

Granted. It's very easy to find it, because all the walls are made from glass, so you can see this flat from all directions. Hope you don't mind the publicity.

I wish for an apple tree.

Caerulea
2022-09-11, 10:02 PM
Unfortunately it's a Granny Smith apple tree. And were that not bad enough, it barely gives any apples.

I wish for an unlimited supply of tea.

Dire Moose
2022-09-11, 10:26 PM
Granted. It’s scalding hot and poured directly into your eyes.

I wish I could teleport to anywhere in the universe, whenever I wanted to.

animorte
2022-09-11, 11:19 PM
I wish I could teleport to anywhere in the universe, whenever I wanted to.

Granted. You spend the first few months teleporting to all the places on our planet you want to see. But then teleport out of the atmosphere to have a look at another planet and your gear doesn’t support the environment… oops.

I wish i had enough time to read and write all of the things on my mind.

Persolus
2022-09-12, 03:20 PM
Granted. You've been teleported to a pocket universe with a blank notebook, a pen and a bookshelf. Any time you think of a book, it appears in the bookshelf; any time you think of something to write, another page appears in the notebook. You can't go back until the notebook has no blank pages and the bookshelf is empty.

No, the magic that gives you these books can't distinguish between idle thought and actual desire, why do you ask?

I wish to be able to understand any concept after studying it for an hour.

Rogan
2022-09-13, 02:43 AM
I wish to be able to understand any concept after studying it for an hour.

Granted. Unfortunately somebody cursed you to always get interrupted after 45 minutes of any activity (including sleeping, sorry about this) and of course studying. If you try to resume your studies after resolving the interruption, you need to start again.

I wish I could see the future and change it.

animorte
2022-09-20, 02:19 PM
Granted! You can see exactly 3 days, 49 minutes, and 12 seconds into the future. The still scene is exactly where you're sitting right now and you can change one thing.

I wish to be the owner of the supremely successful and rich NotAmazonTM mentioned in another thread.

Persolus
2022-09-20, 02:44 PM
Granted! You are now the owner of NotAmazonTM in the world of said alternate thread - i.e. the "Rolled a 1" thread. Now, everything you (attempt to) do is treated as if it were a critical failure.

I wish to be the best cook in the world.

Rogan
2022-09-20, 03:25 PM
I wish to be the best cook in the world.

Granted. Every person who can cook better than you dies. I hope you are good at cooking.

I wish I could drink any amount of alcohol without negative consequences.

Bucky
2022-09-20, 05:12 PM
Granted! The alcohol will magically vanish out of your stomach, before your body can absorb any of it.

I wish I could cast Fireball.

Persolus
2022-09-20, 05:27 PM
Granted!

You now cannot stop casting Fireball.

I wish I had the knowledge of what wish could be asked here that could not have any reasonable negative consequence attached to it.

animorte
2022-09-20, 05:50 PM
Granted. You now know the precise question, but whenever you attempt to type it, speak it, or communicate it in any way, it will always come out as something else amusing that merely contributes to the thread's ongoing purpose. Perhaps you've been stuck this way all along, but I guess we'll never know.

I wish for the next person to burn the first wish ever requested on this particular thread.

Rogan
2022-09-24, 03:43 PM
I wish for the next person to burn the first wish ever requested on this particular thread.

Granted, but the fire extinguisher explodes and floods the whole thread with foam.

I wish for a cleaner bot to remove this mess.

animorte
2022-09-24, 04:30 PM
I wish for a cleaner bot to remove this mess.
Granted! Each wish (and its result) is very structurally organized out of this thread and they are all spread evenly throughout the entire forum.

I wish that my favorite threads are kindly distributed the least catastrophic results of this event.

Bucky
2022-09-25, 12:45 AM
Granted! It turns out all your favorite threads were locked before the mess happened, to remain that way indefinitely, so the bots couldn't disturb them at all.

I wish for a space shuttle.

Rogan
2022-09-25, 04:20 AM
I wish for a space shuttle.

Granted. It's the Challenger.

I wish <insert your name here> a great day.

enq
2022-09-26, 06:35 AM
Granted. <insert your name here>'s idea of a great day revolves around you becoming terminally hyperflatulent.

I wish I could perform backflips.

Persolus
2022-09-26, 11:18 AM
Granted. You can now perform backflips - specifically, a slapstick performance involving lots of pain.

I wish I could write essays well.

animorte
2022-09-26, 11:29 AM
I wish I could write essays well.
Granted. You write exceptional essays, ones that could grant you awards and honors provided you ever were able to turn them in on time.

I wish my brownie business was real.

Gold Leaf
2022-09-26, 01:52 PM
Granted, but good luck trying to sell anything when your customers are still fictional.

I wish I was better at children's card games.

I wish I was better at children's card games.

Granted, you know precisely how to win a card game so long as a child is playing the game with you! ... however, good luck with finding a kid that wants to play more than one match.

I wish to win the new UPick WW/Mafia

Rogan
2022-10-12, 05:32 PM

Granted, but nobody wants to play with you ever again.

I wish for true love.

Granted! You discover that you've had a history with that windmill and you will do everything in your power to save that windmill, as your deity is your witness! Or was it a lighthouse?
I repeat, the McKinley Lighthouse has been destroyed.

I wish that somebody would appreciate my reference.

bug_sniper
2022-10-30, 07:16 PM
Granted. I'd pay a penny more for your reference.

I wish for robots that are 3 laws-compliant.

ChrysalisM
2022-10-31, 09:52 PM
Granted. Those 3 laws are:

1. Robots are to make more of themselves
2. Humans are to be used as slave labor to make more robots
3. Those who resist must be eliminated.

I wish I could draw things, and bring them into reality.

Dire Moose
2022-11-01, 12:05 AM
Granted, you gain this power unexpectedly while drawing a nuclear explosion.

I wish I didn’t have severe anxiety all the time.

animorte
2022-11-01, 04:19 AM
I wish I didn’t have severe anxiety all the time.
Granted, Hakuna Matata. Now you just don’t worry about anything, ever.

I wish upon that forum star that I one day grow up and marry a prince.

ziproot
2022-11-01, 09:39 PM
Granted, but you will die just after you get married.

I wish that you cannot grant any wishes after this one.

ChrysalisM
2022-11-03, 10:50 AM
Granted, but you will die just after you get married.

I wish that you cannot grant any wishes after this one.

granted, but now everyone can grant wishes.

I wish i was ambidextrous.

Rogan
2022-11-10, 12:25 PM
I wish i was ambidextrous.

Granted, but tomorrow, you will have an accident and both your hands will get crippled.

I wish for a 40 hours day.

Bucky
2022-11-10, 12:55 PM
Granted, but they're 18-minute hours.

I wish for a quadcopter photography drone.

Dire Moose
2022-11-10, 10:12 PM
Granted, but it doubles as a CIA assassination drone and you keep having problems with telling if it’s set to photograph or kill.

I wish that drone wouldn’t find me.

Rogan
2022-11-17, 05:27 PM
I wish that drone wouldn’t find me.

Granted, but it kills everyone you like, trying to lure you out. On the bright side, you will always get some pictures of their last moments...

I wish for an EMP weapon to stop this done once and for all.

somethingrandom
2022-11-21, 05:07 PM
The EMP takes out all electrical equipment within 100 miles of the drone including the equipment keeping people alive in hospital.

I wish that there was backup equipment that could be deployed in time

Bucky
2022-11-21, 10:34 PM
Granted, the CIA has more than enough spare drones to assassinate them before they die of their existing conditions.

I wish for sunny weather tomorrow.

Dire Moose
2022-11-22, 10:02 AM
Granted. The sun is now ten times brighter than before and the earth is a scorched, lifeless wasteland.

I wish people would stop fighting over everything.

ChrysalisM
2022-11-23, 01:35 PM
Granted. The sun is now ten times brighter than before and the earth is a scorched, lifeless wasteland.

I wish people would stop fighting over everything.

Granted. For a summary of the situation, look up the song The Sun is Also A Warrior by Leslie Fish.


I wish that the Power Rangers existed.

bug_sniper
2022-11-27, 02:09 AM
Granted, but so do their enemy monsters. Their fights tend to be rather destructive and so your homeowner's insurance rates go up.

I wish for an electron microscope.

I wish I had a better idea for a widh.

Dire Moose
2022-11-28, 06:55 PM
Granted, you decide to wish for world peace, which results in everyone dropping dead at once.

All I ask for is a tall ship and a star to steer her by.

paddyfool
2022-11-29, 08:19 AM
The wheel’s kick sends you overboard, and you sink into the sea’s face with a grey dawn breaking. Your sad drowning later becomes the subject of a merry yarn by a laughing fellow rover.

I wish for a quiet sleep and a sweet dream.

Granted, but you never wake up...

I wish I was dirt poor.

Velaryon
2022-12-06, 11:31 PM
Granted, you are so dirt poor that there is no dirt whatsoever within 100 miles of you, thus making it impossible for any plants to grow.

I wish pets lived as long as their humans did.

Dire Moose
2022-12-07, 09:55 AM
Granted, humans now have shorted lifespans to match pets.

I wish to be a hygiene-active pirate.

Rogan
2022-12-11, 04:46 AM
I wish to be a hygiene-active pirate.

Granted. You get the irresistible urge to attack clean seamen. When they are dirty or sweating, you remain inactive.

I wish for long, hot showers to become an universal human right, which has to be provided for free.

bug_sniper
2022-12-16, 04:25 AM
Granted. Friend computer gives you the right to long showers with scalding hot water to properly sterilize your exterior. But if you turn down the temperature by 1 degree, you won't be sufficiently sterilized and so the temperature dial is blue and if you touch it, you'll be terminated for treason.

I wish for my security clearance level to be upgraded.

Dire Moose
2022-12-16, 09:41 AM
Granted. Your security clearance now allows you to access SCP-682’s containment unit, and you are responsible for cleaning it every day while SCP-682 is asleep in the corner. Try not to make too much noise?

I wish I could just magically make everything ready for Christmas and do all the daily cleaning without having to put in so much time and effort.

animorte
2022-12-16, 03:17 PM
I wish I could just magically make everything ready for Christmas and do all the daily cleaning without having to put in so much time and effort.
Granted! Santa takes over all the gifting and meal arrangements, but the Grinch swoops in and cleans everything up, literally takes everything.

I wish I could adjust the temperature to whatever I desire everywhere I go.

Hof
2022-12-21, 01:21 PM
Granted, but anytime you do so every father in a 10 mile radius knows you dared adjust the temperature - and also your exact location.

I wish whatever position I assume when I go to sleep is 100% comfortable

Bucky
2022-12-21, 01:29 PM
Granted! You eventually die in a perfectly comfortable house fire.

I wish for a quartet of robotic servants.

Rogan

I wish Dire Moose's mule could survive being on the moon.

Gravitron5000
2023-01-19, 09:19 AM

I wish for the moon to come to Dire Moose. How could this possibly go wrong?
Clearly, you wish to destroy Dire Moose. However, they manage to gain the moon - meaning that all the resources there are theirs to sell. They are now stupidly rich.
I wish to rob them successfully.

Dire Moose
2023-01-25, 07:10 PM
You successfully rob an actual dire moose. You gain one dire moose antler and one enraged dire moose.

I wish to build my 40 acres of moon land into a proper supervillain lair.

Bucky
2023-01-26, 01:48 AM
"This is a nice lair we're taking over!" "Yes, it certainly is!"

Oh my, it looks like the lair is now occupied by actual villains.


I wish for a space station.

Gravitron5000

Hello, you're listening to Clack FM 93.2, smooth sounds of the space bar.

I wish to be chillin' with those moon villains.

You are indeed chilling. Mainly because your moon base is located on the dark side of the moon, and currently lacks any form of heating. Perhaps you should consider a better pay for your engineering crew.

I wish to escape this potentially doomed moon base before the inevitable betrayals and struggles over dwindling resources.

You're now outside of the base, no you are not in a place with an atmosphere, no you don't have space suit.
you now have 15seconds of decompression before you die.

I wish to be in a situation with condition that can be survived for at least a month.

Bucky
2023-02-10, 01:08 PM
Granted, the hospital doing its best to keep you alive, and there's a slim but very real chance that the next round of chemotherapy will lead to a full recovery. Minus the amputated leg, of course.

I wish for a fine painting to hang on my bedroom wall.

I wish for the ability to always know what cards are in a pack before I buy and open it.

Granted -- every single card pack you ever buy consists solely of the 1991 Marc Jackson basketball card with the Menendez brothers in the background. Not a lot of variety anymore, but you'll always know.

I wish to eat as much pizza as I want without gaining weight.

Gravitron5000
2023-02-14, 11:39 AM

Granted. You mean a regular pizza oven deposited unceremoniously in your backyard right? I hope you have a forklift or something to move it inside. You’ll have to hook up a chimney and a gas line but I guess you are being reasonable by not having a wish granting entity mess with your house or your utilities directly. I gave you one of the big brick ones they use in restaurants which might be hard to move, but if you wanted a normal oven, I don’t think you’d have specified pizza.

Granted! You've travelled six months back in time, to September 2022. You are in your current position relative to the earth; in fact, you're frozen there. You will have to stand there, utterly immobile, and fully aware of your surroundings. For sixth months time, till it's March 2023 again. You can't do anything. You just sit still, fully aware, for six whole months.

Granted. Your focus increases to the point where you ignore your own bodily needs and surroundings while you work on the task. Your stomach growls for food and your throat is parched, but your mind ignores them. All that remains, all that matters, is your schoolwork. But it's never finished - there's always something to double-check, something to edit, something to improve. The work never ends, and so your focus never ends.

Wow, that got dark.

They are made with Bulgarians, Lebanese, and Turks. Specifically, you have a manwich with fresh, properly sliced meat coming from their wanted criminals.

I wish we’d stop losing so many redshirts.

bug_sniper
2023-05-05, 12:29 PM
Granted. The redshirts realize their odds and start demanding their commanding officers to perform a few high-risk interactions. The death of a few senior lieutenants reduces starfleet readiness and makes them lose the Federation-Klingon war, turning humanity into a subordinate heavily taxed state.

Honestly, a galactic scale war feels like enough of a side effect to me. However, because of my contractual obligation, you will also be the martyred figurehead of the revolution. You won't live to see it, but the strongholds of oppression will burn in your name. Viva la Revolution.

I wish to combine my efforts with bug_sniper to survive this planet we are both stranded on. (I haven't died yet because they didn't take my swords)

Granted, but the additional power is too much for the isomagnetic dekyon compensator to handle, so it blows out half the plasma relays on the ship, completely overloads the gravimetric field displacement manifold and depolarizes the phase inducers.

I wish I could understand what that even means.

Rogan
2023-05-21, 05:44 AM

Bucky
2023-08-07, 12:23 AM
Granted! This lump of pure aluminum is currently at room temperature, but it'll superconduct if you cool it down to 1 kelvin. And the fusion reactor uses a compact particle accelerator to bombard such an aluminum target with deuterium, producing traces of silicon; too bad it's so energy intensive to operate.

I wish for a black box with a plug that can power such a fusion reactor forever.

Starlit Dragon
2023-08-16, 08:06 AM
So, funny thing. Something about the world's metaphysics mean that the only things that can produce that much power are sapient and have free will. This black box is capable of powering the fusion reactor forever, but it feels immense agony every second it does. So it won't.

Granted. It's humid and warm, which makes it very cozy if you're an insect.

I wish for ant-hunting drones, cricket-hunting drones, termite-hunting drones, and bedbug-hunting drones.

The genie also long-presses when copying your wish, resulting in its being granted five times over. This does not benefit you in the least.

I wish I had a tablet.

You get a starship capable of warping any navigational instruction given it.

I wish I had an ambassadorship.

You get an ambassadorship, but it goes so slow it's useless.

I wish I had a group to play 3.5e or PF2e with.

You find a group, but they're all dysfunctional edgelords who wreck the campaign and steal your dice.

I wish I had more time in the day to do stuff.

Wish granted! However, it's barely enough to notice.

I wish that my family would play TTRPGs with me.

[Insert family member] enters the room with a cheerful: "Hey, [TheHalfAasimar]! You play RPGs, right? We agreed to play - and guess what? It's F.A.T.A.L time!"

I wish for an RPG system that has the combat system of Riddle of Steel, the magic system of Ars Magica and the worldbuilding on level of Hârn, while remaining perfectly playable!

Granted. No-one else wants to play it though: anyone you talk to about the subject decides you're a weird obsessive.

I wish to be accepted into a fun RpG group. (Ruh roh)

Granted but everything that's supposed to entertain you through a suspenseful story is now boring. Movies, books, and games now put you to sleep because you're not oblivious to the ending. It's like you automatically see a complete set of spoilers before you watch or play them.

I wish DMV appointments weren't so boring.

Wish grantend! However, at the next DMV appointment you go to, your car explodes, making it certainly not boring but definitely not desirable.

Granted but it's a great white shark and it will have plenty of water and places to hide and search for little fish in. As in, your house becomes part of its enclosure and is now entirely underwater.

I wish jury duty wasn't so boring. (busses and trains are free for this so I'll take them)

Wish granted. It's not as boring as it was, but it's still pretty dang boring. I wish that was semi-decent at spriting.

All books are now written by YouTubers who judge it necessary to spend more time on cheap rhetorical devices to retain the audience's attention than on saying anything of substance, and contain one idea per page, if you're lucky.

I wish I had time to make this post shorter.

Granted! The world makes a bit more sense. Every hidden motive, every cruel intention, every injustice, and every tragedy becomes almost crystal clear, flooding your mind with unbearable understanding. You also become unbearably sarcastic.

Congratulations! Your parents’ knowledge of all other languages is replaced by knowledge of Japanese and Korean. This causes them some headaches, but suddenly they can understand not just Manga but Manwha too! They still aren’t keen on them though.

Wish granted! After getting transported thousands of years into the past, you still have all the knowledge you'll ever need! If you were still in the 20th century, that is. Get ready to socialize with primitive humans who don't speak English!

I wish for ideas about my writing.
