    Would you also, pray tell, wish to be a baller?

    How about a girl who looked good, would you call her?

    Actually, I've already got this one covered. Height and athleticism should be enough, thanks.

    Is there a good term to describe wishes that go wrong? I refer to The Monkey's Paw, but I guess not everyone knows that story.

    No!

    Two ham sandwiches.

    You fool!

    Why have a ham sandwich when you can have a roast beef and provolone on a toasted french bread roll with mayo, lettuce, and tomato??

    I would wish for an end to STD's and a functional male birth control pill. Then we could all just bone down, like, constantly.

    Failing that, I'd like superpowers.

    All of them.

    If you are going to wish for the best sandwich, wouldn't it be better to be very nondescript in the wish, so that the wish could construct the sandwich for you properly? I mean, who knows, maybe the best sandwich ever contains 479 ingredients in microscopic portions that blend together to create supersandwich. Or maybe the best sandwich is a roast beef and provolone on a toasted french bread roll with mayo, lettuce, but hold the tomato. Then you'd be screwed.

    What if the best sandwich is made from people?

    The best sandwich IS made out of people. Three people. Doing sex stuff. You see, there is one person in the middle, which can be considered the filling of the sandwich. Then the two people on the outside are the slices of bread! A people sandwich. Of sexiness.

    Telling depressed people to shut up around the holidays because they're harshing your buzz seems above and beyond the standard Goose level I've seen here. Joke about it all you want.

    Eh, pills are too easy not to take. I'd like a big-ass lever next to every bed / couch / elevator / aeroplane bathroom with two settings: SEX FOR FUN / SEX FOR BABY

    How does it work? Fuck if I know, I'm not the genie here. Sperm-killing rays or something. Chop chop, there're two more wishes to go after this.

    Though there is a difference between being depressed around the holidays and joining a conversation specifically to derail it with negativity. Former is understandable, latter is kinda more goosish than what knitdan said.

    Maybe he just wishes for all the depressed people to be happy. Truly the noblest of wishes.

    I was gonna post a more serious wish with regard to the health of a family member, and I was like naw.
    Nobody wants to read that. Problem-free teeth would be cool.
    I'm fine with reading some depressing wishes though.

    Last I heard there was a functional male birth control nearing market readiness.

    Its basically a minor injection into the vas deferens that blocks the sperm from entering the ejaculatory stream, but the material they inject is easily removed should you chose to have a child later.

    Vasectomies usually don't cause any problems, sperm cells constantly die and are broken down inside the body. A vasectomy also only blocks the entry of sperm cells into the seminal fluid, the other components are discharged normally.

    I've thought about this a LOT

    But recently it occured to me that if I got to re-live my younger years

    I would not see any modern film or movies or video games for like 20 or more years.

    I'd be surrounded by other kids exclaiming about the TOTALLY RADICAL graphics of sonic the hedgehog and super mario world.

    Well really, that's all there is to it. Do it, or don't. Which will make you happier in the long run?
