The Genie Game

[Raven]

I saw this on another message board and it's been a big hit, so I thought we could try it over here.

How it's played: You make a wish and the next person to respond plays the part of the Genie granting your wish... but with a twist! In granting that wish something bad must come from it as well.

For example:

Me: I wish I had a boat load of money
Next Person to reply: Granted! But the boat is now too heavy and is sinking.

Then you get to make a wish and the next person grant's it (with a twist) and so on and so fourth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here's a wish to get us started...

I wish I had a brand new car!
