What's on Your Ridiculous Holiday Wish List?

We love Sparkler synchrogirl117's imagination...but we don't envy anyone planning to buy her presents this year. Where can you buy your own personal ninja, anyway? —SparkNotes editors

Over the past week, we heard something that completely horrified us. (Don't freak out, New Moon is still hitting theaters on schedule. [We're talking to you, Dan Bergstein! We know you secretly want to see it!])

What did we hear? Radio stations are already playing Christmas music! After our initial rage about early holiday music/decorations/merchandise, we started thinking about the actual songs we were hearing, especially "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" by Gayla Peevey. I mean, who asks for a hippo for Christmas? It's almost as weird as asking for your two front teeth.

There are much better things you could ask for:

• A sea anemone

• A giraffe

• A dolphin

• An entire zoo

• Magical powers

• Ticket to a jetpack convention

• Night vision

• A parasailing session

• A gumball machine

• A personal ninja

• A day with Harry Potter

• A sarcastic ball

• Garden gnomes

• A popcorn maker

• A huge house

• A private jet

• An enormous hunk of chocolate

• A spaceship with improbability drive and a staff of Dentrassis

• A llama farm

So how about it, Sparklers? If you could have anything you wanted (for your birthday, the holidays, the three week anniversary of when you learned how to whistle) what would it be?
