The rules are simple:

The first person makes a wish, and the next person finds some way to derive bad consequences from granting the wish, or to otherwise tag a downside to it, before stating their own wish:

Person 1: I wish for a million dollars.

Person 2: Wish granted, however it is Monopoly money and worthless.
I wish for perfect weather.

Person 3: Wish granted. You get perfect weather… for polar bears.
I wish I was a good putter.

Person 4: Wish granted, but you are the worst driver and iron player the world has ever seen, so you never get on the green in fewer than about six strokes.


Who wants to start with a wish?

P.S. Don't violate free will with your answers, please. Don't say "wish granted, but then you spend it all on one hand of poker" or something.

Wish granted! But you made it on a packed course with an expensive bar menu and no hole-in-one insurance. Your tab comes to about $2500.

I wish that Tiger would win five more majors to put the GOAT discussion to rest once and for all.

Wish granted, but Jack Nicklaus wins The Masters next spring. Still not GOAT.

I wish that I was offered a complimentary membership to Augusta National.

Granted! But you have to work one of the concession stands during the Masters, and never get to walk the course during the tournament.

I wish I had a set of Edel irons and wedges.

Wish granted, but the membership is only a One Year membership and you slip walking up to the first tee and break a leg with a terrible compound fracture in your leg and will not be able to walk for 14 months....

Wish granted, but you later find out that they were stolen as the cops bring you in for questioning.

Wish Granted. The cast(s) of Days of Our Lives, The Bold and the Beautiful, The Young and the Restless, and General Hospital will each announce one of the four majors while in character, with special emphasis on human interest and romantic entanglements. 

I wish for the guy that hit into me earlier today poop his pants at the store.

Wish granted, all famous people live forever but are forced to live in Florida and now you don't have a place to live.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
