Melodramamine's motto is "People should be careful what they wish for, I just might give it to them!". M.H. hovers just outside the perception of ordinary human beings looking for the worst that 'Type A' personalities have to offer. While one might think that M.H. would target simple desires like "I wish (xyz person) was dead", the approach taken is much more subtle than that.
Recently, a certain conservative politician secretly wished that *all* controversial art and music would just disappear. M.H. obliged by making numerous works by Mozart and Van Gough vanish. After all, they both were controversial in their day. Let's hope some other power broker doesn't wish the internet to go away, too. M.H. will be standing by!
One social activist wished for full child lockout capability on all new TV sets. M.H. instantly enclosed every TV in the activists town inside a Brinks mini-safe, neglecting, of course, to provide any combinations. Local locksmiths had a field day.
M.H.'s efforts are not confined just to prominent people. A pushy, macho and frustrated Little League father wished his eight year old son would "Hit the ball from here to Mars!" M.H. obliged by lifting a bunt clear out of the atmosphere, across millions of miles of space and onto the surface of the Red Planet. The next day, NASA reported that their Mars Explorer had been disabled by a "baseball sized meteorite".
