Your wish is granted. Unfortunately, Gandalf, who said 'Then smoke, and think of him!' is incensed that his advice is not taken, cries, runs away and tells Eru on them, and Eru decides that it wasn't him that promised to never wipe out the world again with a flood, and then proceeds to wipe out the world. Barrow-downer's last thoughts are - who made that wish?

I wish I didn't live in Korea, so I could take more active part in the Barrow-Downs.

Your wish is granted. You now live in Giant Slug Land and are continually being slimed by said creatures.

I wish I was the King of Gondor.

Your wish is granted. Unfourtunately, you were turned into Isildur and you got shot by arrows.

I wish Theodred didn't die.

Your wish is granted. Theodred didn't die, therefore Eomer never became king, and then Faramir doesn't marry Eowyn for diplomatic reasons, and then... Um... I forgot what happens next, but it was something bad.

I wish Christopher Tolkien's son is a reincarnation of Tolkien and writes more LOTR series.

Your wish is granted. Unfortunately it makes no difference since J.R.R Tolkien had decided that there would be no continuation to LotR. Nothing happens differently, except that HoME is in more detail and we have more ME handbooks by Christopher Tolkien... but there is no major change in our lives.

I wish the fate of Middle-Earth was decided in a limbo contest.

Your wish is granted. But Gandalf wins them all by uncloaking and blinding everyone. So Middle Earth is sent into turmoil, as everyone is blind.

I wish there were more Hobbits in Middle Earth.

Your wish is granted. There are a lot more Hobbits in Middle-Earth. In fact, they live all over Middle-Earth. They eat all the food and sleep the whole day long, they drive the other countries into poverty and starvation. The stock market at Morannon collapses and Sauron commits suicide.

I wish Sam was an emo kid.
