Create a very loud noise while opening it in atmosphere.

Granted. Your house is entirely filled with hardhats, while you are asleep.
You can not escape.
I wish that an effective defence against nuclear bombing is created, rendering all nuclear warheads useless.

Use her as bait for someone looking to weaponise psychic people. Then drop them into a pit full of scorpions and allow her to levitate herself out.

Granted. They are incapable of creating coke though, requiring them to cut whole forests in order to make charcoal.

Well, they could fire her for messing with equipment.
Or they could shift her to tech support, because she clearly is skilled enough for it.
EDIT: And I mean a high ranking tech support.

Granted. You are the very best at falling into holes.
I wish for Madman198237 to get a new house, which, unlike his fireproof one, can not be burnt down.

Granted. Then Zombie Puppyguard and the Zombies come knocking on your door.
I wish to have a pet swamp dragon.

Looking at the wiki, $AM or Ankh Morpork Dollar is the english version of the currency.
The translaters probably just used the czech word, which means basically the same thing. It even has the same base.))

Granted. But it causes no loyalty in the lich, and they can break out whenever they want. Congratulations, you just pissed off an undead wizard.It may be a translation error, but in czech translation, tolars are mentioned in Snuff.
I wish Sir Terry Pratchet was still alive, without dementia and Alzheimer's, and continued to write good Disc-world books.Granted. But these discs are serrated and he frisbees Puppyguard with them.What are Tolars? I'm pretty sure there are no Tolars in Discworld.
I wish to teleport to Ankh-Morpork, not telefragging anything, nor being telefragged. I am to understand whatever language they use, and any money I have on me is to be converted to it's equivalent (based on cost of bread) in AM Tolars.

Granted. Unfortunately while this dragon only eats fruit, he is very jealous. In order to keep you to himself, he kills anyone else you associate with.
I wish to own a quartz pebble, the size of and average tangerine, located at this point on top of my desk in this house, not intersecting any other solid objects, on which the spell Continual Flame from DnD 3.5e has been cast and has not been dispelled.

« on: September 28, 2017, 08:36:37 am »Well, I am 3 hours east of you, but yes. I was wrong at that accusation and you did not edit that post later than I responded to it.It is, that editing what you said while someone else is answering you will make them look bad, but it is cheating. While the page warns you about new posts, it does not warn you about edits to old ones.
I'm not sure how this is even relevant however. Repeating this point just seems like you're accusing me of doing this. The original post with almost all the information in it, which is the one you've mainly cited was last edited at 7:44:50 pm. You started making remarks at around 9:15 pm. So any suggestion that I retroactively edited my main original post to make you look bad is ... not very rational.
In fact you were the one who brought up variable fetus survival rates before I ever mentioned it:While I would believe that "girl" fetuses have higher survival rate than "boy" fetuses when the mother is not healthy, I do not get how that would skewer the demographic in the other direction in the other direction when the mother is healthy.
So that was your point at 9:15, a good 90 minutes after I last edited the previous post. So, it's just what I said, you introduced the idea of "variable survival of male vs female fetuses" as a concept into the discussion, then a bit later ... you mischaracterized my whole argument as being that, and used a fairly dismissive tone towards it. When it was in fact a construct that you'd created.
So yes. After I read the times of posts and edits, I am certain that the thing with girl fetuses was caused by my misreading, not editing afterwards.
On the other hand, there were many cases, where I wrote a response to you, clicked post and there was an entire paragraph edited in.
You probably did not do it intentionaly, but it did make me quite angry.

« on: September 28, 2017, 08:14:32 am »What's the point of your argument? Clearly because I wrote 1 in 5 girls later, that's what I meant. You're not really arguing against anything now, just nitpicking semantics of the posts.
The only impression it gives is that you don't have an actual point to make. At least not one that's relevant to the subject matter.
My first point was from having misread your post, about there being a different way of gender selection than miscarrige. As that was from having misread it, it was useless.
My second point is that using 1 year's worth of childbirths in Lichtenstein as reference is useless.
My third point is really not relevant to genders of newborns.
It is, that editing what you said while someone else is answering you will make them look bad, but it is cheating. While the page warns you about new posts, it does not warn you about edits to old ones.
