Wish Granted. Magic the Gathering never existed. This is now a site for Ugly Betty fan-fiction.


I wish to hear more about how pepsi never existing means they have made a fortune selling empty bottles, in the form of a haiku.

Aha! My pleas have been heeded! A greater spirit has deigned to bestow us with verse and grant this wish in my lieu.

I have literally no idea what any of this is about, but here it goes:

In a time long past,
The Coca-Cola Kingdom,
Dominated us.

Cruel and merciless,
With tactics fierce and cutthroat,
They crushed all others.

Their riches bought all,
Lobbyists and congressmen,
All were owned by Coke.

They got a tax passed,
To be paid by all but them,
For making soda,

But then came the light,
To the darkness of commerce,
And Pepsi was born.

They could not afford,
The steep and unjust taxes,
On bottled liquid.

And so, in brilliance,
They refused to make a drink,
But crafted bottles.

Meanwhile, Coke changed things,
Because there were no others,
Coke was very cheap.

The liquid, that is.
You still pay a hefty price
Just for the bottle.

But Pepsi products?
They are but glass and label,
America swooned.

Solution? Simple.
Buy Pepsi bottles, but fill
Them all up with Coke.

Fountain pop is cheap,
Coke bottles worse than Pepsi,
Tax circumvented.

So now we all see,
How Pepsi made a fortune
With empty bottles.


Wait, we needed a haiku didn't we?I don't think greater spirits of word do refunds...

Someone also needs to make a wish. This humble djinn cannot read minds.

Oh, you only wanted one? Very well:

Read haikus above,
They will answer your Pepsi
Bottle question now.

There you go, one wish granted, with a twist.

:O no wish for me to grant? ...i wish there was one... JK THATS NOT MY WISH

I wish for some kind of logical reason, if one indeed exists, as to why gamefreak saw fit to make 3 fire/fighting starters in a row, because I just do not understand.

If the next poster doesn't play pokemon and has know idea what I'm talking about, then I wish for a dinosaur

This I grant you! Well, in a sense. There isn't a logical reason. And now you know that. So... yeah.

I wish for the best book in the world.

Here is a copy of "How to Tell if your Cat Is Plotting to Kill You" by Matthew Inman. Unfortunately cats have taken over the world, so you are not going to get the chance to read it.

I wish cats had not taken over the world.

Wish granted! Dogs have taken over the world. Luckily they still love us so were treated pretty well considering our species is now second-class citizens

I wish magic cards weren't so expensive

Wish granted. Magic cards prices have dropped to a penny each over note. Unfortunately, WOTC also went broke overnight for completely unrelated reasons, so it's the end of Magic the Gathering.


I wish dogs had not taken over the world, and as part of this wish I don't want something else non-human to take over the world instead. I also don't want someone human to take over the world either. Everything has to be in its status quo as it was before cats took over the world and dogs took over the world after them, except for the positive benefits of whatever the original wish in this string was. I think TPzombieW was supposed to get a book or something.

wish granted! but the mass of all those conditions you just laid out increased earths density so much that the extra gravity pulled the moon right into planet's surface, wiping out all terrestrial life. hows that for status quo? :V

i wish the back keys' new album was more like there old stuff

This I grant you! The new Black Keys album suddenly sounds a lot like their old stuff... because it's now a greatest hits album!

I wished I had the best playlist of all time.

Wish granted. Unfortunately as a side effect of this the ACT test had to be made easy enough that anyone with a high school education can get a 36 with no trouble. This means that the test is no longer being used as a good judge of overall readiness for college.


I wish the moon did not crash into the Earth, and I want this to be granted without undoing the positive effects of the last wish. I am going to keep chasing this losing streak until we stumble upon good results.

Your wish has been granted. All the negative effects of the last string of wishes is undone, and the positive effects thereof remain. That guy even has his book that he wanted! Everything is now great in the world....which lasts for all of 42 seconds until some loser comes along and makes another wish.

I wish the world wasn't so great, cuz that's boring.

I wish for world peace.

Wish granted. The world is now at peace. Unfortunately, your AC is broken and this summer is particularly hot.

I wish I had a working spaceship with sufficient fuel to go on space adventures.

Wish granted. You get captured by angry aliens for trespassing though.

I wish my AC worked again.

Wish granted. Your AC now works again. Unfortunately, you're never quite comfortable. It seems the optimal setting is between 22 and 23, but the system doesn't have in between settings.

I wish I had every issue of Spider-Man ever published, in mint condition.

Wish granted. You have also gone spontaneously blind however and can't seem to find them.

I wish my ac worked at an optimal setting that is convenient, easily accessible, and something I would enjoy having it at.
