It's all about humanity baby. I do it for my people.

35.1% straight personal gain? wow, i guess people are being honest on this poll!

I would actually combine humanity and personal gain. I'd wish to invent something that would save the world, such as free energy. Then I could make money off of it.

No "Become a superhero" option?

Don't waste your wish on the meaning of life option...
The Answer is 42

People who voted for the last option: the Science Channel is playing re-runs! :D

Humanity! If i could wish for a formula that cures everything, my dad would still b here!

anyone voting outside personal gain or jedi dinos are in denial.

Just be careful when it comes to mutant powers...

People who voted for the last option all have the show on dvd and/or bluray and don't have to deal with commercials.

Is it wrong I actually debated between curing everything and Firefly for about 30 seconds?

Tho if we cure everything, could that include the stupidity that cancelled it in the first place?

I'm shocked that thinking people still consider the "meaning of life" a meaningful question. I figured this out in 7th grade biology. I have yet to have anyone convincingly refute my findings.

When you discard all the metaphysical mumbo-jumbo, the true meaning of life can be summed up in one word. Replicate. The purpose of all living things is to live long enough to reproduce so that they may perpetuate their kind. We exist, not for any divine purpose, but as a vector for the survival of our specific DNA strain.

That being said, I would wish for peace.

My wish: fast load times for me when the Big o' Cosmos comes up here.

I'd wish to be able to control time. I could make millions as a pro base-ball player, sleep in as late as I want every day without being late, read every book in the library and be a super-genius literally overnight, and fast forward through all the commercials without paying for Tivo. Plus I could go back in time and prevent Justin Bieber from being born.

Curing everything is a horrible idea. Overpopulation would lead to increased poverty, crime, disease, and an overall crappy existence for all the extra people. Death is a perfectly natural part of life and something we must all face.

Not reruns! Like I don't have all 14 episodes memorized. If you knew what it was you wouldn't say a thing so cold.

Good point. Perhaps a cure could be found for the entire Fox network.

Wooo! Infinity percent profit!

It would be for me :D Besides, I would only charge the people who could pay for it. That would allow me to provide it free to the rest of the world.

Tough choice between Jedi Dinosaurs and Firefly. But I chose Firefly.

I never know what the end of the one wish is. What are the rules? If I say my wish in one sentence is it one wish? Is 1 million dollars really 1 million wishes? Can I wish for an ATM that cures diseases as it freely gives out money to contribute to the feeding of the Jedi dinosaurs? I can get a lot into one wish. What are the rules?

Ask the genie if he uses unsigned integers for wishes. Then wish for negative two wishes and hope for an overflow.

I would wish to become an ALL-POWERFUL GENIE! (Minus the itty-bitty living space.)

Barring that, I'd take no-limits shapeshifting. Barring *that*... totally Firefly.

And yeah. Reruns do not, in fact, count, except for the purpose of increasing the number of people bitter about its cancelation (for which purpose it has hopefully done admirably). Every so often I grab a random episode and watch it again (I've probably watched them all at least 3-4 times each), but that is just not the same.

This poll is so obvious.

"To do the impossible." And since obtaining more wishes was stated to be impossible, I just won.

As appealing as the first four options are, I want more Jayne.

I wish that everytime needed money for something, the exact amount I needed would appear in my pocket.
