Here's the challenge: Finish this in such a way that the character

his wish too much, or more preferably, he doesn't get exactly what he wants.
Minus several million points for originality. Y'know, I don't think I've
_ever_ read a story involving a wish-granting entity in which the wisher got
exactly what he wanted, or was satisfied by it. It would probably be a bigger
challenge to write a story in which the person doing the wishing _did_ get
exactly what he wanted, and was satisfied with it. Or, alternately, doesn't
get what he wants, but is satisfied with it anyways. (Well, I suppose Oh!
My Goddess! falls into this category...)
Anyways, here's a challenge of my own: Write a story in which one of the
characters utters the following quote:
"Pardon me, [sir|madam], but that's _my_ anus."
Bonus points if it's not lemony. Points get deducted if it's a non-sequitur.
