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

Just create a post that starts with “I wish ___”. Other users will then grant you the wish, and probably not how you intended.

Granted. Twitter is full to bursting of people complaining about how bad Linux is. You've seen those seething play-by-play blog posts by people trying Linux for the first time who didn't have someone to guide them and everything turned out terrible and now their vitriol towards the Linux community knows no bounds? The ones listing every single thing that went wrong while installing/using Linux, describing each in excruciating detail, and adding a few that the poster made up for good measure? Multiply that by every computer user on Earth.
