If you had 3 wishes, what would you wish for 🧞‍♂️

You can’t wish for more wishes / you can’t make someone fall in love with you / you can’t bring someone back from the dead.

  • First: Without anything I would consider harm coming to me or to any thing or person I care about, that I should understand every aspect of the wish-granting process in its entirety.

    I'd work out what I wanted the second and third wishes to be from there.

  • World peace (whatever that means, hopefully it doesn't mean the eradication of all human); the conviction, circumstances, and knowledge to live my best life; the answer to the meaning of our existence.

    1. I wish that every human would have their basic needs met (clean water, food, shelter, clothes, etc).
    2. I wish for enough money to be able to live comfortably, travel, pursue my passions, and give generously to others.
    3. I wish to live a long, healthy, fulfilled life.
  • Simple free healthcare, free education, and unlimited hugs

  • 1.) $50 Billion (money doesn’t fix every problem but it fixes lots of them.)
    2.) Disease and war free world.
    3.) A fully programmable holodeck.

    Basically I want to be in Star Trek but rich.

    1. Those around me to be loved and secure.

    2. Be content with what I am and have, but have the motivation and eagerness to always want to do better.

    3. Better Mexican food in Tucson. Hahahaah. I’m kidding. Just better tortillas :P

  • I misread this

    1. A fully programmable holodeck.

    as

    1. A fully programmable haddock.
  • @CuddleDuncan don’t be silly. I’ll have $50 billion; I can always commission a fully programmable haddock. ;)

    1. A Canon EOS 5D Mark IV camera body with 24-105mm f/4 lens ($3,799)
    2. A Canon 600mm f/4 lens ($12,999)
    3. Manfrotto MT190CXPRO4 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Wimberley WH-200 Gimbal Head ($1,026.13)

    I could photograph wildlife to my hearts content.

    I'd wish that everyone in the world had what they needed to be happy, healthy, safe and comfortable.

    That's all. Everything else would fall into place.

    1) A happy life for my daughter
    2) Enough money to pay my bills and provide for her
    3) Time to write

  • @WriterGF Ive known your presence (on the forums) for a while now, & your daughter always comes 1st & tops every list asked here 🌌

  • @BuggleBear said, “ I'd wish that everyone in the world had what they needed to be happy…”

    If that’s the case then more wishes will make me happy. 🤪

    (1) Immortality and Invincibility
    (2) The ability to transport myself to any place or time (past or future) instantly
    (3) The ability to create unlimited money in the currency appropriate to my time and place

    All selfish I'm afraid but I would spend my money wisely.

  • @respectful post stuff ok. Like lots ! 😂

    You have a fan base out here !!!!!!!!

    1. The end of the pandemic
    2. The end of human violence
    3. Unlimited wisdom for all humanity

    End result:
    Zero crime rate, unlimited intelligence, 100% rational humans, exploring galaxies, unlimited science, and more.

    Now go ahead and find me that genie to make these wishes come true!!

    Before you make wishes, people, you need to watch this film. You really do. I mean you do anyway, it's very funny. But before making wishes .... oh dear, you really should watch the film.

  • No person deserves three wishes because people give very little thought, even with the most altruistic intentions, to Pandora’s box of possibilities. Immortality? Watching everyone you ever cared about die but it’s cool because you are a god unto yourself. End of human violence? What is your definition of violence? People are their own worst enemy and I shudder to think what any human with three wishes would ACTUALLY do with them, including myself, because well, semantics are a bitch, human vision of consequences is myopic, and humans are highly fallible. Case in point, I will make a wish despite this:

    1. I wish that these hypothetical wishes are never freely given to people in the event they do become a reality.

    @FunCartel you doin’ okay buddy? :)

    Answering the question what 3 wishes would you wish for is not only a great creative exercise but more importantly we can learn something about ourselves and each other.

    Also I think you should use your other 2 wishes. Have fun. Be creative. It’s okay to dream and do some personal blue skying; even if you risk the chance that you might get something that you deeply want.

    @ShaneMTB I wish people would stop worrying if I am ok. I wish people people would stop telling me what I should do and why in their opinion. You happy now?

    Bonus wish: I wish people would stop sticking their nose in my business as if they know me.

  • [Deleted User]Gabriel2k (deleted user)

    I would wish to always have the time and money to pursue any hobby that I want. Skydiving and scuba diving ain't cheap.

    To fluently speak, write and understand all known languages.

    And I'll just save the last wish just in case.

  • @CuddleDuncan
    I have not seen that movie but I have watched another movie with the same name from 2000 that starred Brendan Fraser and Elizabeth Hurley. I don’t know if the story line is the same but the movie was great and very appropriate for this discussion.

  • @CuddleDuncan: Ooooh, I'm bedazzled. (And Peter Cook doesn't care.)

    It's a very fun film!

    1️⃣ Cancer never existed!!
    2️⃣ my friends and family to be completely healthy
    3️⃣ Financially wealthy

    1. Perfect health (no allergies, perfect cholesterol, no risk for diabetes, etc.)
    2. The ability to easily teleport anywhere (and I can take someone with me if I hang onto them) anytime.
    3. Either the ability to completely control time (so I can sort of hit the snooze button in the mornings for however long I need, re-experience old fond memories, see what-if scenarios, pause time for more productive things such as studying or practicing guitar or singing, etc.) OR the ability to somehow influence/convince anyone of anything instantly. Basically they'll actually want to do something or be convince of an idea. I would definitely use this to bring peace, comfort, happiness, kindness, generosity, everything good in the world. I might also use it for a few things such as getting hired for a new job or a billionaire just deciding to help me out a little haha. I just imagine all the hours of cuddling I could afford with pros, being able to travel the world, donating to good causes, and more.
    1. My children to be healthy and happy
    2. Me and my partner to be together
    3. Unlimited money
  • I love how selfless most of you were in your wishes.

  • I want the knowledge and ability to easily mass manufacture:

    1) batteries made of simple abundant materials that hold 10kWh in 1ml and 0.1 grams
    2) solar panels made of simple and abundant materials that are 100% efficient and are 0.1 grams per square meter

    And for numbers three....

    3) a new food that is easy to grow indoors anywhere, is delicious, nutritious, has high yield, and would balance well with the existing ecosystem if it was grown outdoors.
