(If we can get away with this . . .) :evil:
It's the corrupt a wish game. It's very simple. I make a wish, say, "I wish I could fly" and then you corrupt it- in the form of, "Wish Granted, but Corruption here".
So the corruption of my wish would be: "Wish Granted, but you're afraid of heights, so the power is worthless to you".
Then you make a wish.
I'll go first- I wish I had a 120 gb flash drive.

Wish granted, but the internal circuitry is dead, so it doesn't work anyway.
I wish I had more time to further my C++ skills.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
Wish granted, but you can't further your C++ skills as every time you have free time, you're in bed with 40ºC (100ºF) fever.
I wish everything/body used OSS license.
Wish granted, but Microsoft still exists.
I wish I had a MacBook Pro.

Wish granted, but a bunch or crazy little leprechauns came and threw it in a fire.
I wish I had a pony.
But ponies are overrated. The pony eats your flash drive and you get so angry you sell it.
I wish the New York Knicks were at the top of the NBA. (Yeah right! :P)

but then basketball got uninvented and in place of it was TaeKwonDo. I wish I knew how to spell superkalafragilisticixpeeealidoshus the right way, and I wish I was a moderator so I can delete this thread!

wish granted, but then you suddenly develop severe carpal tunnel syndrome making it impossible to type.
I wish I could become a world renown composer of electronic music...
edit... beat me to it
wish granted, but then the entire world began listening to only country music and classic rock.
i wish i could think of another wish.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
Wish Granted!- But it was a really lame wish and got corrupted by a person like me.
I wish country music was banned (Sorry!)
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Wish granted, then they removed the ban a few days later.
I wish i were at home sleeping right now.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
Wish granted, but the mattress was lumpy.
I wish I had JTH's password :evil:
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
wish granted, however you are now also responsible for all of portableapps.com, the release of the new PA suite and all of the digital signatures on any new apps... etc
you're right, my mattress is kinda lumpy lol.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
Wish granted, but he changed it 2.11193 seconds before you used it.
I wish my wish wont't be corrupted.
OliverK> you don't live on a cow
IRC: It brings out the best in all of us...Especially when tired.
Wish Granted, but you screw up the entire thread. (Hehe)
Shoot, I'm going for it -->
Oh, I wish I was an Oscar Meyer Weiner, that is what I'd surely like to be. . .
For if I were and Oscar Meyer wiener, everyone would surely be in love with me
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Wish Granted, but, the Oscar Meyer Weiner changes management, so they change the formula and everybody hates you. }:)
I wish that I am not making a stupid wish.
but "stupid" is changed to pointless.
I wish it was June.
Wish granted, but June is abusive, so now ur looking for a new relationship. (I know you really meant the month, but it was easier to corrupt when taken out of context)
I wish I had $100,000 US.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
Wish granted, you must be very happy :D. But...
there's a market crash, and that amount of money is the same as nothing!!! 
HA!!! HA!!! HA!!! HA!!! HA!!! HA!!! }:)
I wish... I was rich
Wish granted, but after a peaceful change of government in your home country, all the rich must equally divide their $$ among the poor.
I wish i had a watermelon.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
but someone peed in it, oh and it also had maggots in it.
I wish i knew the plural of life. (Not the meaning, just the plural of the word life)
OliverK> you don't live on a cow
IRC: It brings out the best in all of us...Especially when tired.
but you failed math 'cuz you used a calculator to find the cube root of six, and the IQ test says your IQ is 59 (F).
I wish I hade my own computer, that doesn't break, that I can use, and will not be taken away from me.

Wish granted, but it gets lots of viruses.
I wish .NET could be portable without things like thinstall.
cowsay Moo
cowthink 'Dude, why are you staring at me.'
but microsoft decided to sell .NET to thinstall and thinstall ruled the world!!!!!!
(BTW, not breaking counts as no viruses...)
I wish I had a stuffed dolphin named dolphin...
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
granted but it turned out that it was actually a real dolphin and you got arrested for keeping endangered animals. I wish that Toucan 2 would program itself.
but then you'd get arrested for creating a self-evolving super-virus. I wish I had an IBook.
"What about Love?" - "Overrated. Biochemically no different than eating large quantities of chocolate." - Al Pacino in The Devils Advocate
Wish granted, but than you let the iBook fall from the 30th floor accidentally.
I wish I could remember of a funny wish related with the cube root of 216
digitxp changes his sig.
I wish PortableApps hit #1 on Sourceforge and stayed there. (Is anybody willing to corrupt that?)
Sure- I'll take a crack, hehe :evil:
Wish Granted!- But now more people whine (not you) about when the next release will come out, and we can't play our fun little game here anymore because of the torrent of vistors.:evil:
That wasn't such a great corruption
Now the hard part-
I wish I could be, under the sea, in an octopuses garden, in the shade.
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
you picked the wrong sea. Due to Global Warming your sea and shade is gone and there is nothing but salt lakes......
I wish I wouldn't have a exam tomorrow.
"What about Love?" - "Overrated. Biochemically no different than eating large quantities of chocolate." - Al Pacino in The Devils Advocate
but you only didn't have it because you were sick, causing you to miss the next 7 exams as well. Semms you failed at life 101...
I wish I had an Eee PC ant nothing bad would happen to it. ?_? Willing to corrupt that?
OliverK> you don't live on a cow
IRC: It brings out the best in all of us...Especially when tired.
Yeah, sure! Wish Granted, but it is stolen (it hadn't happened it nothing bad, it still is ok, but with another guy).
I wish I stole roamer's EeePC from his wish
(easy to corrupt)
Wish granted, but now that he doesnt have it, bad stuff can happen to it. Your solid state hard drive overheats and explodes.
I wish I didn't have to work to make money.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
Wish Granted
The money comes from a play set.
Thus it didn't work.
Try this-
I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time
The darkness around me - shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Cookie to who gets it
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Wish granted, but your wish made so little sense that the laws of physics could not uphold it and the entire universe was vaporized.
I wish that I had a plethora of possums.
"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." - Rick Cook
Wish granted, but unfortunately you are now a possum as well; merely one in a crowd of thousands. Later, for no apparent reason, they elect you leader of the possums, only to revolt against you after finding your unorthodox style of leadership to be to much for the possum mind to handle; and during the great possum revolt, seeing no other alternative, they eat you to forever secure their freedom.
I wish someone would welcome me to the forums.
granted, but also to welcome you we set your home PC up as the sole PortableApps.com sever, causing it to crash and burn.
I wish to see how small we can get these reply boxes!
But John locks the topic.
I wish that Microsoft would release Vista SP1 sooner.
"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." - Rick Cook
but SP1 was for industrial use only.
I wish I knew more imaginary #'s than i.

but you forget all real numbers.
I wish I had never seen this topic (it's so addicting).
Wish Granted- But aren't you having so much fun?
I wish the new Pidgin Portable would come out.
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Wish granted, but then a new version comes out and you need to wait over and over again.
I wish... (wait a second, I'm thinking) that the new beta of the menu comes out.
but it turns out John made it payware...
I wish I made a flawless wish.
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
Your wish is granted, flawless in every way, however it lasts only for an infinitesimal moment so you don't really get to enjoy it at all...
I wish everyone here at PortableApps peace, longevity, and prosperity.
I said it and I say it again. I wont say Wish Granted. Ok, wish granted. But as we're all in peace, we don't care anymore about computers and portabe apps. So this forum gets dead.
I wish I knew how to program in Python/C/C++ or any other of those.
Wish granted, but then computers get so smart that they program themselves.
I wish I had a better understanding of JAVA, SQL, the JMETER test framework, and how to make them play nice with eachother.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
Wish granted, but then Microsoft threw .NET in to the mix and screwed it all up.
OK, (this will be stupid but...)
*singsong-like* I wish, I wish I was a fish!!! *stops talking and starts laughing, alot, at his own stupidity*
OliverK> you don't live on a cow
IRC: It brings out the best in all of us...Especially when tired.
But you didn't get any gills, and died immediately.
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
The only uncorrupted wish has been granted, but in your rush you must have forgot to put said uncorruptable wish in. Way to fail. (lol)
I wish I had a good internet connection, reasonable price ($30 or less), and nothing would happen to my computer or internet connention.
OliverK> you don't live on a cow
IRC: It brings out the best in all of us...Especially when tired.
But then, by a freak russian counter terrorist movement, they seize every possible cable to train agents with a giant Unreal Tournament LAN party.
I wish i had a decent MP3 player.
But there’s no sense crying over every mistake,
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
Wish Granted, but you don't have nothing to put in it.
I wish someone here invented a nice wish for me to wish.
But it turns out to be so good, it makes you jealous, and you wish you never made that wish.
I wish that Yahoo could come up with a way to avoid being bought out by Microsoft.
"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." - Rick Cook
but then Google would buy it
I wish I had a fish cause I am hungry.
"What about Love?" - "Overrated. Biochemically no different than eating large quantities of chocolate." - Al Pacino in The Devils Advocate
Wish Granted, but the fish is old and you don't want to eat it.
I wish I had a home (media) server.
but it crashed, then cought on fire, then was attacked by rabbid bunnies, then exploded.
I wish for more web space for my site.
OliverK> you don't live on a cow
IRC: It brings out the best in all of us...Especially when tired.
..., but you don't have nothing to put on that extra space.
I wish I had an extra wide high res screen so I don't get annoyed with these replies that screw up the forum layout.
but the tv installers installed it sideways, so now it's even worse.
I wish I didn't get interrupted using the pc all the time...
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
Wish granted, you have suddenly forgotten how to operate a pc so no more interruptions.
I wish JTH would post his wish in this thread.
granted, but he wishes to lock the thread, so it's all over.
I wish that I had more free time.
but your mom makes you spend all your free time eating ice cream at baskin robbins.
I wish I had a more comfortable chair.
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
Wish granted, but it's so comfortable that you fall asleep soon after sitting down and are no longer productive on the computer.
I wish my room would clean itself.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
But it soon develops an intelligence that it uses to take over the world.
I wish I had better photography skills.
"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." - Rick Cook
But then you realise wasting $50000 on new photo equipment is pointless, so you start to cry, knowing that all of your new skills are going to waste. So then you buy said equipment, yet every photography job has been filled by trained monkeys. You turn into a monkey, just so you can get a job. How do you like that monkey-boy?
I wish I was a monkey, too...
OliverK> you don't live on a cow

But you left your brain on the top cabinet during the transformation.I wish John would visit me to say hi, and not hurt me...

but on his way home, he died in a car crash. Now who will update our apps?!?
If I could have just one more wish, I would like a tasty fish!
Wish granted. But your tasty fish came from McDonalds.
I can't decide which smiley to use- :o
Take your pick
I wish that this css would break sometime soon.
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
but not on this site
I wish Firefox 3 was here.
but you have no way to download or use it.
I wish to see how far to the right this thread will go before getting locked or edited by a MOD.
but you decided to cover your eyes on this site until this thread was deleted...
I wish I could watch TV.
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
But the flatscreen falls of the wall, and injurs your Chiwawa. Your parents come in and blame it all on you.
I wish I had a brain.
But your brain broke since you assumed that I had a wall flatscreen (it's on a stand, 46 in. HDTV), and a chiwawa (I like stuffed dolphins better).
I wish John would get jealous of somebody and want revenge.
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
Wish granted, but he wants it from YOU!!!
}:) 
I wish I had a nice impossible wish like all of yours (While I don't I wish a next generation console).
But the wish is so impossible that so many people try to figure it out, and they can't, so everyone stops playing this game.
I wish Patrick could spell ("Chiwawa" is spelled "Chihuahua")
"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." - Rick Cook
But then you can't spell anymore.
I wish John joined the fun in this thread.
But he got bored and decided to delete the thread. I wish I had a better flash drive.
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
But then Flash Drives got outdated and everyone got portable hard drives instead.
I wish John would buy an office for Portableapps and people can visit for support and stuff...
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
But the office is in a remote place where no one has PCs.
I wish I knew why you granted your own wish?
But when you figured it out, you wish you had never known. BTW, that would kill me if I couldn't spell.
I wish that I had a million mongooses.
"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." - Rick Cook
Wish granted, but unfortunately you are now a possum, I mean a mongoose as well; merely one in a crowd of thousands, I mean millions. Later, for no apparent reason, they elect you leader of the possums, I mean mongooses, only to revolt against you after finding your unorthodox style of leadership to be to much for their mind to handle; and during the great mongoose revolt, seeing no other alternative, they eat you to forever secure their freedom.
I wish that I knew what the plural of mongooses was (mongeese? mongooses?)
i wish that i could wish for anything.
Zoop
Wish granted, but because you can now wish for anything, you have too many choices and you drive yourself mad thinking about all the different wishes you could make.
I wish the Audacity 1.3x branch would become stable.
PS: You forgot to grant and corrupt the previous wish.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
but then comes out the 1.4.x branch that is even more unstable that the 1.3.x but it has some new features that are essential to you. }:)
I wish Microsoft gets... well... kind of... dead.
Wish granted, but then Bill can no longer offer the Microsoft development tools (Visual Studio, XNA Game Studio, Expression Studio...) for free to all registered college students. (yes it's real, they just started the program, it's called DreamSpark)
I wish there was an open source web spider that could detect pages without file extensions.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
Wish granted, but it got too smart and deleted the internet because a web group decided to take it down.
I wish for 2000 unuopened, untouched, and unharmed cases of redbull.

I wish somebody would use the add new comment button up at the top.
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn

but the add new comment button malfunctions and places the comment as a response to yours.
I wish i lost all my worldly possessions and was miserable for the rest of my life
