heh, mine was always “I wish for internal peace and happiness,” the few times I did have a birthday cake, or whenever I threw pennies in wishing fountains. Nope, neither has come true, despite wishing for those 2 same things every time, since I could remember.
Super powers in lieu of happiness and peace would be great. Better than being normal and miserable.
Heck- if you could attain happiness and you had to choose between happiness (happy but totally boring and normal) and super powers (cool af but unhappy), which would you choose?
Good question… I mean I’m used to being unhappy, it’s a constant state to me, but having powers on top of that might just make it bearable. So I’d go with super powers (assuming they’re good enough) haha
They basically shapeshift: can disguise themselves as flounders when trying to look benign when hunting for prey, and sea snakes when they’re trying to defend themselves.
Probably wouldn’t be to kind to have one in a fish tank, though. 😉
omg yes! I totally want the flapjack (dumbo) octopus. It’s so cute!
The mimic octpuses are cool too. Imagine if we can shapeshift like that?
There’s a bunch of really great squid/octopus documentaries on youtube for free.
I bet some rich fucks have indoor aquariums with all these illegal animals that we normal people aren’t allowed to have. I 100% guarantee it.
Probably. Didn’t Prince have a tiger or something? Might have just invented that, who knows?!
I’ve wanted a cat for ages but landlord doesn’t allow it, plus i live in a 1st floor flat. So I was thinking about researching and then getting a couple of fish… surely they can’t get fur everywhere and scratch the hell out of everything. Putting them in a fishbowl is probably cruel though, isn’t it? Do adults even do that? haha
They can also change the texture and color of their skin to match whatever they’re trying to mimic, and their distributed nervous system makes them incredibly smart, and also quite creepy. If you put one in a fish tank, it’d probably escape and fling itself back towards the ocean disguised as a crumpled up piece of paper floating in the wind.
I’ve seen some of your posts here, and am so concerned for your whole situation — including your living situation. Do you have any support workers or anything like that? Anyone you can spend time with away from home? There must be some help available for you — you need to have more people trying to help you. x
No… I have tried since 18 to be able to move out. I tried as hard as I could to get enough money to build a house off the grid so I could have a happy life. I moved out for a year and I’d never been more happy. The only time I get out now is if I walk. I used to have a license so I’d spend every day on the streets nowhere to go, just driving the streets. It’s ok though.
Again, please please contact me, or somebody who might be able to help… I want to help you find someone who can really help you? Are you in the US?
Please email me at kimonomyhouse90@gmail.com, or message me if you want to. I also saw you mention probation fees in amongst the whole situation you’re in. You’re not being threatened with jail for a fee you can’t afford, are you?? What’s your officer like? I’m guessing you maybe haven’t felt able told them about any of things that have been going on for so long?
Have any of your friends been trying to help you? Can you get a friend to report anything, even to your GP?
Anyway, I don’t expect you to talk about this publicly, but please take care…
My officer calls me names….. yes, I am being threatened with jail time if I do not pay my fines. I do not have a single penny coming in income. I had been applying to jobs when they arrested me and now I no longer have a way to and from work. I don’t have any friends, but it’s really not that bad. Even with this situation,
CoD Suicide: if there’s an email address you’re happy to give me we can talk more? Or message me here? I haven’t tried messaging on the forum yet though, so hopefully it’ll work. I’m not equipped to help you in the way that you desperately need, obviously, but if you want someone else to speak to and vent to, then feel free. You clearly need a lot of practical and emotional support you’re not getting.

As a kid i used to wish i had one of the gadgets of doraemon. Like invisibility one or the one which makes you transparent and untouchable. Used to imagine all kind of scenarios with them.
Can I wish that someone had never died? Because if so, I’d wish that for my stepfather. I don’t know what the temporal consequences of that would be, but I think things would be okay.
If I can’t make a wish like that, then uh…I guess I’d wish to be thin. I know, it’s vain and stupid, but honestly, I think it would make my life so much better. It would make me a lot happier, at least.

For years now whenever I have to make a wish, I go with ‘I wish I was happy’, hasn’t worked out so far…
Alright, I wish I had some kind of super powers, so that no one could ever hurt me.
What would your wish be, eternaldarkness?

Yes, me too. 😛
I wish I had a miniature elephant.
That would be kinda fun, wouldn’t it?
Depends on its temperament. Miniature elephants are notoriously moody and like to trample keyboards.
I wish i had a mimic octopus.

Fishbowl? You’d need to get a tank. Fish (or anything else) don’t last too long in a tiny fishbowl.
They can also change the texture and color of their skin to match whatever they’re trying to mimic, and their distributed nervous system makes them incredibly smart, and also quite creepy. If you put one in a fish tank, it’d probably escape and fling itself back towards the ocean disguised as a crumpled up piece of paper floating in the wind.
Wow.
Yes, very deceptive and creepy creatures, that’s true. But amazing.
I really like that.
Real life Mystique (from Xmen)
And can completely change their skin colour and texture. Amazing animals. Kias are good too, incredible birds. So a mimic octopus and a kia.
a kia??? Or do you mean “a kid”?
Cuz if you’re gonna choose a fantasy car… lol 😛
Oh, you mean KEA, the NZ bird (parrot)
Haha! Oops! Yes, that’s what I meant! 🙂 Not a kid… it’s definitely not the right time :p
Wish I had a not psychotic family

I wish things were alright for me and the people I love.

My head wants a massive lottery hit, but my heart knows the most important thing to wish for is Peace On Earth.
If death and not being born are out of the question, I guess the ability to lucid dream whenever I wanted.
Suckers. The obvious answer is “unlimited wishes.”
lol, I forgot to put that in the “no obvious answers” list above. 😛
A huge tub of ice cream.

I wish I was not alone…
I don’t mind the good or the bad
But loneliness is the worst of all
I wish for lots of money. Or maybe, I wish there is no afterlife.
I really wish I was super rich. at least that would be one thing that keeps me going
Yep. I’m surprised only 2 people said money. It may not erase your depression completely, but it sure af would help. And for some, help lots.
I wish that I can become the perfect me, the imagen me, the person I wanted to be.
I wish i were skinny and didn’t have depression, i mean don’t we all not want depression, i mean who wants suicidal thoughts, you know?
