I hate these answers so, so much. These wishes contribute about as much as saying "I wish for what I would wish for", i.e. absolutely nothing, and on top of that, it's being enormously dickish towards the wish-granter and they're going to think you're a greedy bastard, so wish-subversion will inevitably happen.

The omnipotence comes with massive power incontinence so you can't really have any fun and you're actually at risk of accidentally erasing yourself from reality at any moment just by thinking about it. The relic suffers from similar problems, plus it's also fragile.
pfffttbttbt fine, I'll go with matterbending through a device mounted on me left arm then.

I shout "WORLD PEACE!!" instantly. Then I realize I could have wished for an X-box, darn.

Actually if I had a magic wish I would wish for world peace. Only magic is powerful enough to achieve that.

I would wish for an invincible mecha army that only I and my offspring could command.
I'd say "you know that means you're going to be murdered by one of your children or grandchildren, right?", but the inclusion of offspring seems so intentional that that's probably what you want to happen. If in a thousand years' time the world is ruled by feuding factions of your enormous royal clan, you probably consider that a win. Heck, I know I would.

So nevermind then, cool wish.

That did not even cross my mind, but the idea of a bunch of brothers and sisters fighting for control of a mecha army sounds like a cool plot for an awesome anime.

Ah always that "no wishing for more wishes" caveat.

How about wishing for your rule about 'no wishing for more wishes' to be void?
That's not wishing for more wishes and would technically work :)

Also ninja'ed just above with wishing for my own wishes to come true. (though you could argue that indirectly that's wishing for more wishes)
Since you only get one wish, and you used it up wishing that it was possible to wish for more wishes, you basically just lost a wish and didn't get anything.
If you'd read properly you'd see that I didn't wish for more wishes but my wish was that the caveat would disappear. Big difference :)

EDIT: Or possibly the ability to make my own wishes come true.
That's not asking for more wishes, now is it?

ummm.. ...why?
We're all going that way anyway, so any other kind of wish I would make would be pointless. Just speed up the process and drift away into peaceful nothingness.
That's kind of a cynical view on things. You never know what might happen in the future!

We're assuming this is a wish granted in accordance with my intent, correct?

All right, guaranteed great success in any endeavor I am passionate about.

WOOHOO successful career and lifelong loving companion, here I come!

How incredibly stupid. End results are inconsequential. In higher dimensions, all time exists at once to observers. Therefor, anything and everything that occurs has cosmic significance. Ending in death does not nullify that which came before it. Even my wish for success stems from a desire to enjoy life, not to reach some higher end result. I would never take immortality if offered it. The point of existence is to improve and beatify it ad infinum within the limited time allotted, until it ends and the next one begins. A point you seem to be missing.

Simultaneously, your wish is grossly selfish and, quite frankly, despicable.

I wish for exceptional healing powers. The ability to reverse aging, heal wounds, cleanse diseases and get rid of pain. This way, I can be of use to the world and keep my friends and family alive and healthy. Works for me. I'd have to keep my powers mostly secret though. Don't want them abused by the wrong people.

The knowledge of all languages (as in, being able to speak, read, write and understand them). Dead, current and those to be. I love languages. ^.^

For once in my life, to have a girl I really like to like me in return, or at least give me a chance.
Would you say you wish for a goddess to stay by your side forever?
Nah, I don't want perfection. Perfection would be boring. No grwoing together, no fighting, no make-ups, at that point it's just endless bliss, and without the bad moments, how are we to know the best moments? I just want a chance with a girl I like. Just a chance.

Protip: When you complain about people not reading your posts properly, try actually reading their posts properly.

I feel you bro but the joke was about a certain anime/manga [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oh_My_Goddess!] that I lifted my avatar from.

That people would do what i told them to, even if physically impossible (kinda like Sebastian from Black Butler).

Or, being able to defy the law of conservation of energy/mass/etc with my mind. Essentially, being able to create something out of nothing.

My one wish would be to be able to make anyone in the world be sexually attracted to me. That way, if I'm having a bad day, I'd just make a ***** want to have sex with me and then we'd get it on.
