Granted. The zombie apocalypse arrives and there are no more banks, or humans, for that matter.
I wish I could make enough money to live comfortably by my standards without having to work hard.

You can! In fact, you can make twice as much as that! Unfortunately, you don't get any of the money. There's been a terrible mistake up in Payroll, and it's all going to that person you hate. Oopsie. Iiiiii, wish, I wish, I wish... I wish I knew what I want to be when I grow up.

You know what you want to be. You want to be a person who made a lot of life choices that are the opposite of the ones you actually made. I wish China had started enforcing effective environmental laws about 5 years ago.

They have. On everyone. That knock on the door, probably the Chinese Ecopolice, here to talk to you about your overuse of electricity. Or gasoline. Or about the time in third grade when you spilled oil down a storm drain. Don't worry, though-- their guns are made form 100% recycled material and fire plant-based bullets. And people are a renewable resource. I wish I could travel instantly from one place to another.

You can. Oops, you forgot to specify being able to choose what the places would be! The nice one is where they flush all the poo from the various animals at the Beijing Zoo. Mm.. That's the nice one. I wish I could get a career directing films.

Done! The films are industrial films about lawnmowers. Your leading characters are made of steel and plastic. (Surprisingly, they emote better than some flesh-and-blood actors, but that's a different twisted wish fulfillment condition.) I wish I had more self-discipline.

You have lots of self-discipline. Unfortunately people who love you keep calling it an eating disorder. I wish it was easier to transfer money internationally.

It's so easy that your money keeps transferring itself. I wish I were more efficient.

You are. So efficient that you have just finished everything you were going to do in your lifetime. Then you finished everything you thought of after that. And now you've finished everything, no matter how unlikely, that you could think of after that. Too bad you have another forty years to live. And that book you were going to settle down with just now? You finished that, too. I wish I had a llama.

It is, alas, a Drama Llama (ding dong). I wish these shoes didn't make my feet hurt.
