Unfortunately, your ability to control thunderstorms means no one can touch you without getting fried.
I wish I could swim with dolphins.

The water is also infested with sharks.
I wish I could talk to machines.

Machines would develop a mind of their own and destroy the world.
I wish I could travel to alternate worlds (like Sodor for instance).

You land at Sodor in 1998 inside a shed at a quarry, with Percy collecting trucks outside, when the ground starts shaking and you hear a loud, rumbling noise!
I wish that there was a much shorter distance between the UK and Australia.

This wish is granted, although you are forced to escape Alcatraz-style to get from one country to the other. Through every obstacle ever thought of.
I wish for DRM to die a painful death.

DRM will probably live for a good more 50 years (who/whatever it is).
I wish Amy Winehouse would stop going into rehab...
...no, no, no.

Unfortunately she went into rehab but got beaten to death by all the therapists (They're a-pissed!) who were fed up of repeating the same thing on her 100 times.
I wish that the railways of Britain were renationalised!

The railways are renationalised, but admission prices are incredibly high.
I wish I could attend a SiF UK Member's Meeting.

I wish that the railways of Britain were renationalised! It does so, but Maggie Tatchter takes control of the Nationalised Railways. Everyone coils in horror except Clarky. JimBobDunnie attends it as well (now thats corrupted...heh heh.... ...no wait). My life long goal is to be the King of the Untied Republic of French People.

You're the King, but the French are bloody annoying. I wish that Watford get promoted.

Unfortunately they then seem to have a bunch of players with only one leg... the doctors are most mystified! I wish that Maggie Thatcher was burned as a witch.

Granted. But her spirit lives on in the form of Tony Blair.
I wish that Angus Deayton was re-instated as host of 'Have I Got News For You' (it's been a while, now).

The show is axed after his comeback.
I wish that the missing Doctor Who episodes from the 60s had been saved.

But Ian Levine tapes over them with episodes of Howard's Way

But when you arrive you find your passport/visa is outdated and unaccepted.
I wish 'Thomas and the Magic Railroad' would have been less of a flop.

@pc: Granted, but they'd be replaced by infomercials. DRM will probably live for a good more 50 years (who/whatever it is). Digital Rights Management, aka copy-protection on music and movies from iTunes. A curse upon it! I wish I had an Xbox 360 and Guitar Hero 3 for it.

Guess what. The only song they got on the version you just happened to get is "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" on Expert.
I wish I had an IQ of 160.

Done, but you'll be an outcast at school.
I wish for a two-week holiday in London.
