Cliche topic, but let's be realistic here. Think about it and give honest answers.
A genie grants you three wishes. Basic restrictions apply:
-Wishes cannot cause direct harm to others.
-Wishes cannot force someone to like/love you.
-You cannot wish for more wishes or anything that would loophole you into getting more wishes.
-You can wish for immortality for yourself, however, you cannot wish for others to have the same ability.
-Restrictions can be updated based on responses.
So, what would you HONESTLY wish for?

I would wish to be a prince of a nonexistant country.
Then I would wish for the genie to save my life in case some dude tries to drown me.
Then I would with the genie free.
Then I would marry some hot Arab chick and fly into the sunset on a tacky but magical decorative rug.

naw but 4 realz dis time...
1) I'm pretty sure I would wish for superpowers of some kind. I probably wouldn't be picky about what powers I got. Just something cool like flight or telekinesis or something like that.
2) I would wish for a normal level of social skills.
3) I would wish my cats were still alive.
I know the last two seem like I'm kinda chickening out, but I think I overthink things too much to want to wish for really really big things that could potentially have major ramifications (the only exception to that rule would be having superpowers).

That applies for pets too?
F**ker.
Ok, so instead of that I would wish to have no limit to my mental endurance when I'm stuck in the drive-thru for several hours at a time at work.

Sorry, plus it brings up more questions. How old would the pet be when they're brought back? Would they have the memories of their entire life? etc. Death is something you're not allowed to cheat (for others) in this thread.

1. To always have exactly the amount of money needed for whatever I want or need.
2. To have a long healthy life with a painless death.
3. To fall in love with a wonderful girl and earn her love in return.
I know I'm lame.

Dude, why don't you just wish for a dream job or enough money so you don't have to work? lol I don't really have any one 'dream job' (I can find problems I'd have with pretty much any job), and I think I'd have way too much potential to be the world's most corrupt a**hole if I had all the money I wanted. |

Technically, you could make two wishes. 1, one be to go back in time to when they existed (of course this would neglect any potential problems here, and you'd simply replace the past you). The second, would be to wish your pets never suffered those certain sicknesses. But that's an emotionally tough spot. They'll still eventually die, and you'll have to go through that suffering again. And who knows how long they'll live at that point? Unfortunately, an accident could take place or another sickness could develop |

Damn it, Luna. Stop being modest/polite about this. 3 is a waste of a wish! We both know that can/will happen without wishing for it!

My wishes:
1) Massive financial security.
2) Me and my loved ones to live long & healthy lives.
3) Humanity to stop hating one another for petty differences such as color & religion.

You can cure the diseases, but there's still viruses and new ones always develop Also, conflicts are needed to resolve issues  |
