Want to make a wish? Just ask the Monkey's Paw! No strings attached*.

(*) Satisfaction not guaranteed. Wish may backfire unexpectedly.

Just create a post that starts with "I wish ___" and wait for other users to write how your wish didn't turn out how you expected.

If you're feeling inspired, you may even use the wish as a sort of writing prompt.

Example:

Title: I wish for more wishes.

Granted, you can pluck out Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star on your guitar now. Everyone else in the world no longer has any interest in music. No instruments are played, and you are considered an anomaly to be shunned.
