Granted, and why would that be a bad thing? Attending Latin Mass every Sunday morning, I mean? (JK, to each his own)
Granted, you can read it but it still makes no sense to you.

I wish an angel would just stand right in front of me and explain my life to me -- past, present, and future!

Granted, but it's one of Charlie's angels, so her version might seem a bit scripted.

I wish light-heartedness wasn't so hard for some people to achieve.

Granted, everyone is now so light-hearted that nobody takes anything seriously and civilisation collapses.

I wish for a sudden downpour of rain so I don't have to go outside chain-sawing trees!

Granted, you get a great rainstorm that breaks more branches, so when it's over you'll have to chainsaw even more.

I wish I didn't have a tummy-ache.

Granted- you're so relaxed you don't feel like doing anything, so you're bored with nothing to do.

Didn't post a wish, so I'll respond to the one in your signature:

Granted, everyone but Kurt Cobain hates you for who you are.

I wish I didn't find it so hard to switch from one activity to another. (like, I should be getting ready for work now!)

Granted, now you can't settle on anything at all and flit between tasks achieving nothing.

I wish for a doze.

Granted, but all the thoughts of people converge on you and give you a migraine.

I wish for tomorrow to go by quickly.

Granted, while delivering a pizza you trip and fall into a cryogenic suspension unit and today lasts for several centuries.

I wish for a bacon sandwich.

Granted, while delivering a pizza you trip and fall into a cryogenic suspension unit and remain eternally your current age.

I wish my back and shoulder muscles would loosen up.
