Dreams

[Charon]

I keep having dreams about my last job.

I hate them forever.

All righty. Here's another sanity trying dream.

Anyone here play Dragon Age: Origins? Of course someone has. Well, in addition to the 3 race choices of human, elf, and dwarf, a fourth option, hobbit, was available. I felt inclined to try this new race, but as soon as I selected it, the xbox kinda did this weird imploding thing while it flashed many glitchy colors. Seconds later, my father bashed through the door holding a set of headphones which promptly turned into a math challenged iguana. He told me, "Time for your homework!" and chucked the poor animal at me. It landed a few feet away from me at a desk which magically conjured itself up. The subject of homework was indeed math. The iguana took a pencil in its hand, looking like it was contemplating what 2 times 9 is. It explodes before I could say anything and my little brother walks in to ask, "You gonna eat that?"

I woke up feeling disturbed. On top of that I think that dream gave me a cold or something.

well this dream is a really weird dream i had:
I was in my fathers truck, me and my family were driving out of a ruined city, we stopped for some gas, then a dude with black clothes and couldn't see his face he grabbed me and said:
-it's not our fault... the robots they ran out of our control-
then my brother came and punched him in the face and sayd
-stay away from my brother-
then my family left me at school they said that they were going to search for some food and if they didn't come back in 15 minutes i should leave the citie on my own, then i heard an explosion i went to see and every kid in the school was running from a robot similar to the one in CHrono trigger but more spiked, then i threw him a giant rock but i missed, then i grabbed a large stick and attempted to hit his face but the stick broke, then all of the sudden another robot like the one of chrono trigger came to save us but the other robot killed him with a single beam of energy, i rushed to see if he was ok, but he was too damaged and he had something that said ChiliBot then he said:
-in my body... take what's in it... it will help you...-
then i put my hand within his body and i found to blades, then i runned out of the school and everything started to look like in the Golden Sun World map O.o
Then i had a seed in my hand and my friend was following me then he said:
-what use do we have for a seed when everything is covered in snow!!-
then i found a little ranch withouth snow covering it, i rushed to it and all of the sudden
I FOUND THE MAFIA!!!! and then i woke up.
Strange isn't it?

I had the most damn frustrating dream last night.

Okay, so basically dad comes home from work to tell us that some car company (I'm assuming Mazda) needs Visteon's (his current employer) help badly and so he has to go back to Hiroshima to work for them for a contract for 6 months. But, he says that they're giving him some crazy awesome benefits, like paying for the apartment and average living expenses FOR him AND giving him overtime pay, and since he's trying to retire he's all for it. However, he wants to bring me and my family along, even though we've been on our own before, so we can also experience the benefits. But I really don't want to go, because of my job and my boyfriend. Thankfully he said it wasn't for 4 months so at least I could finish this semester of college, but I was really upset nonetheless. I kept trying to argue with him but he basically told me that if I wanted to stay I'd have to pay for all my expenses... so I eventually bit my lip and said goodbye to my boyfriend...

I woke up and was like... "please don't tell me this is real >.<"

Bad dreams stink, don't they? I find that the frustrating or depressing dreams tend to be closer to being nightmares most of the time. The closer they are to real life, the worse they get. Luckily, the fact that they are only dreams makes them a bit more bearable.

Last night's dream:

I am not sure if everyone knows, but I opted to stay in high school for another year due to my not knowing what to do in university. This dream revolved around that fact.

It was the end of a school day in Spring, when I was walking with one of my friends who moved on to post-secondary. We ended up talking for a bit before I noticed that these bullies were picking on some kids. Now, this was the first time that I had seen bullies at this school, so I told them to stop picking on the new kids. The next day... Everything repeats itself, except that I had to work on an assignment. Similar days kept occurring, with varying seasons each day. However, it was shortly before I woke up that I realized something. We all turned into bloody Archie characters, and I was stuck repeating high school for an eternity.

I know that it sounds silly, but it has kind of been depressing to think about this morning. Oh well...

Your subconscious clearly hates you.

I had a dream that I was late for a lecture. Then I woke up ten minutes after that lecture was due to start. Luckily it was cancelled.

[FelixWolf]

just recently today/yesterday i had a dream were i was going to teh bathroom of my school and two of my friend where like the Flood from Halo and had powers of spiderman, so iwas scared and i had to run when i saw my friends playing baseball they yelled something(i dont remember what is was) and some little spiders came and started pulling us so i falled and woke up

A few nights ago i had a weird dream.

I was standing on the sea. but under water standing on the surface upside down.
I looked ... umm... up? at the bottom of the sea and i saw the moon...
so I was like that's cool, and then it blew up...
then freaking mermaids with laser guns started shooting at me.
the lasers bounced of the water thing and hit the mermaids, turning them into bob-bombs from Mario... they blew up and the water kinda melted... up to the sky... kinda hard to explain. so i was siting on the bottom of the sea... with no water and the water doing weird crap in the sky.
I looked over and there was this black box, sword, a kitten, a dog, a fish, a tree, and a soda can...
If I wasn't dreaming... I could have seen what came next a mile away...

all of the above turned into girls... then they melted into slime... then they turned into a pokemon (muk) and ate me. I fell onto a bouncy floor. the floor was cheese... it exploded into flowers... then I woke up... ....

I ran to my brothers room pulled him out and screaming I asked him if he drugged the hot dogs he made me for dinner... he didn't....

EDIT: I should note that this was while I was sick, and i may have had a temp of 104F

About a week ago...

I had a dream recently that I was (kind of) playing TF2, except it had more of a feeling like I "was" who I was playing as... but it still felt like a game. Anyways, I was playing Engineer and I was carrying something to the top of this cliff for some reason, when I noticed someone was following me. So I jumped off the cliff and my leg broke and it hurt like HOLY HELL. A buddy from work came to help me, but then we saw something horrifying in the distance - a bunch of little kids with Chuck E. Cheese medallions. They chased us down, and we were in my house, and they were about to tear down the door and gut us...

and then I woke up

CURSE YOU WORK

[Durza]

It seems like a nightmare saying you played too much Call of Duty at one stage. Or you have repressed anger issues at someone which were projected onto your brother for that dream. Or you feel as if your brother doesn't really know you.

[Shinigami]

I only, if at all, have really uninteresting dreams...
For example, a long time ago, I had a dream that went like this...

I was staring up at a grey sky with a metal structure occupying around three quarters of the view upwards. The metal structure looked similar to the one standing outside the millennium centre in Cardiff but it was wider. Wide enough for me not to see either end of it.
Water was flowing from the top of it, in slow motion. Think of 1/4 normal speed, maybe less. Accompanying the water where the forms of people, also falling in slow motion. Not struggling, just lifelessly following the pull of gravity. They seemed to fade into the world at the top of the structure. I was never able to see what happened when any of them hit the ground as the ground was out of view... All of this was greyish as if someone had reduced the saturation of the colour in the dream significantly.

For those who are not sure what structure I'm talking about...

'cept the front, which is flat...

[zman9000]

Sounds like the St. Louis Arch. gray, tall, and when water flows down it, it looks like it falling slowly.

[Thorion]

My dreams are pretty blah.

Anyone hear of Earthworm Jim? Well, when I was five I guess there was a virus going around, I really don't know, the term the doctor used was "frog in the throat", so me and a bunch of other kids had to have those things attached to our faces that help with breathing. When I fell asleep, I had the weirdest dream. It was Earthworm Jim's head going up and down like a hammer speaking gibberish.

[Tetsuya the Azure Blade]

Earthworm Jim? Damn, Earthworm Jim is awesome.

Speaking of dreams, I've had a doozy of a weird one. I was an alien, flying a lampshade through space. When I woke up, I was like 'WTF?'

And yes, I did just say LAMPSHADE.

[Thorion]

Funny thing is that I had never even played an Earthworm Jim game or watched the cartoon show. So I guess I had just been seeing the games a lot at Blockbuster.

A Lampshade? Can't top that.

[Tetsuya the Azure Blade]

I'd like to see someone try. And you've NEVER watched EWJ? Here's the first episode, and don't come back till you've watched it!

If you're going to report a post, that's fine, but please do not derail a topic for the sole purpose of talking about a bot that passed through the system. Simply report and move on.

Regard this as a verbal warning.

So I had an interesting dream last night.

I was in this make shift school on a space station. I was there with people ranging from kids to young adults. we took place in a little world and were held there by a government. they were testing us with some kind of radiation to give us powers. we would go about normal lives kids would go to school, adults would teach and work. and at the end of every week (this dream felt like it was a few months) would test us and see if we had any ability's.

the first week I saw I could move water in my hand with my mind... but only enough that just I could see it was me doing it and not just moving my hand. durring that week I hid it but tried using it. the more I used it the better control I had.

Week two they tested me again, but they didn't ask me to do anything like I had did. they wanted super strength or sight not mind over matter. so I hid it and over the next week I learned I could control more then just water, I could move anything. I learned other people had been found with super strength, super eye sight, and super fast thinking.

the third week one of my friends got hurt during testing and the government workers had found about 20 super people, out of the over 100 it the place. with the others with no sign making them mad at the rest as the process of how to get the powers was unknown. I started to get mad along with a few new things, I could pick up full cars and throw them with my mind, I could fly, and I could trick people my making them do what I wanted.

the forth week during testing, now even stronger, destroyed the space station and used my power to bring my friends down to earth safely. but the program wasn't a secrete and we having broke out and killed all the workers and most of the other captives by mistake we were criminals.

I started a Resistance and found most of the people I saved had the powers I had, I trained them and we had fun defending our selves.

I feel like in my dream there was a time skip here that jumped like a few years

Now in a ruined city, me and my friends were throwing tanks and small buildings at the army when a mech came out of no where and beat us. our powers had little to no effect on them and we were over powered. me and two others survived, and went off different ways.
I kept attacking the army, and near the end of my dream I remember seeing my friends getting killed, I got pissed, and then I see I picture of the earth being ripped in half and exploding...

then I woke up... I slept for 20 hours and since dreams happen faster then time actually is my dream was about a month time kinda...
It was amazing, fun, sad, and over all interesting... And I can remember so many details but I'll keep this short... lol

[Charon]

Had a dream where my parents went to Turkey for god knows why, and I bought a pet Zebra Finch to give me company. Now that wasn't too weird, except the way that I obtained the bird...

in the closet of a CEC combined with an AIRPORT

Goddamn work is going to make me CRAZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[zman9000]

As soon as I woke up I knew I had to post my dream here... more or less so I don't forget... because it was crazy and long
PS: yes the wall of text below is all just my dream...

Believe it or not my dream last night was kind an Inception thing. The reason I think this is going to be long is because of this time line for my dream. Edit: it was very long.

dream1 > dream2 > dream3 > dream4 > dream 3 > dream 2 > dream 1> Awake
the reason I'm not just posting one of these is because they are all linked.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dream1

as best I can remember my dream started in a Christmas party with my family that for some reason was on Christmas and new years at the same time. Sadly like most dreams I thought this was real. other then going to a casino in California and then walking next store to my house in Pennsylvania and the Christmas star being on fire all was normal. after a normal new years party I went to bed. some how I felt tired in this dream but that's what led to the second dream.

Dream2

I find my self in a house being led around by some kids I've never seen before but in the dream I knew why I was there, thought this was reality, and I was a murder detective with a time travel watch. I was in this house to solve a crime. the house had cameras, but they just had live footage. of course instead of going back in time to look at the cameras or look for and stop the crime before it happened, I went back 3 weeks to the last time one of the kids saw his friend. At some random McDonald's in the middle of a desert I go in and the first thing i do is... jump over the counter, grab a burger and drink then jump back in time with the food and sit in the McDonald's waiting for the kids to come in. How or why kids were at a McDonald's in the middle of a desert I don't know but there were there. I watched them leave after some time. I found two of the kids just out side talking about doing some thing one week before the kid was killed. there was a Santa at this place when I went there. it was a small town but was very crowded. I set the time watch to two weeks in the future to see what they do. this time it was still crowded but with only kids. there was also a different Santa which I found strange for some dumb reason. I watched them for a while until most of the kids left. I saw the two kids talking with the murder victim. I walked over but just before I got to them the chair under the Santa exploded. what was left of Santa was put in a rescue vehicle and it drove off. I then went back two minutes and looked under his chair. I saw Minecraft style TNT. I then went back to normal time where I came from. With no new leads and feeling tired I went to sleep in a near by hotel. this lead to the third dream.

Dream3

Again forgetting the past dreams I found my self in a town with a McDonald's (wtf is with the McDonald's). I went out side after picking up some food and saw something flying. It was a dragon, and it landed on the roof of the McDonald's and roared at me. I then roared back and the dragon burst into flames. (along with the McDonald's and the people inside.) then some people came out of other buildings and thanked me. I smacked/fus-ro-dah'd some of them in the face because they were surrounding me. I then turned into a red and black dragon and flew off. I killed a few dragons and burned some towns on my was home while being chased by fans wanting me to sign their dragonborn t-shirts. after killing the last fan I went inside my house and went to bed. Still not sure where my food went. this went into the fourth and final new dream.

Dream4

This time I knew it was a dream as soon as I did something. I was god and created the universe. I watched as the white sprinkles evolved into people. I then joined them with a few powers and began pranking/mudering/stealing/flying in their faces. I got bored and decided to wake up since I can decide to wake up or not when I learn its a dream. I woke up into dream3 (I would go into more detail... but I just did stupid stuff)

Dream3-2

Now back as the dragonborn I again thought this dream was real. At least until I could fly as a human. I realized this was a dream and woke up into dream2

Dream2-2

this is where it starts to get kinda crazy. waking up I think this dream is real life but I also remember parts from other dreams and they get mixed into this one making a crazy story. I began looking for the killer again ... with a few new powers ... I decided to question the people I saw at the Santa bomb party. from the story of one of the kids I learned that one of the two kids that were with the murder victim  was missing for the hour before the Santa bombing. I went back to the Santa bombing just before the explosion. I was going to catch the criminal in the act, thinking he would also be the one who killed the one kid. I saw one of the kids walk behind Santa and hit the time switch. I jumped him and grabbed the remote. the bomb blew and I had the criminal. but the cops saw me tackle the kid and two of them walked over to see what I was doing. I told the cops that the bomber is here and I showed the remote counter for the clock. the kid then cried and said "I saw this guy playing with that and then he tackled me". before I could say a word I was hand cuffed and put in a cop car. I remember saying "its not me, its not me". I looked over and saw a hurt Santa give me the finger, and then I woke up into Dream1.

Dream1-2

This dream being mostly normal and being so clear I felt I had woken up for real this time. I had full memory of what happened in dreams. Only I didn't find it weird I still had the time travel watch... I walked out of my room and to the Christmas tree. I saw a ragged box that said from Santa with a box in it that said explosive expanding pool. freaked out i pressed the button and stopped time. I walked out side and unstopped time and heard a fizz and a splash. I went in side and found a very large fully filled pool.
I laughed because I miss read pool as pull. I then reset time before I pulled it. I took the box out side and looked at the box. this time it said Bad people time travel, and inside it said explosive expanding pull. freaked out again I throw it down the street just after pressing the button. I see a pool expand and fill its self, then a car came by and pop'ed it. one more time I traveled pack in time. I looked in the box that said from Santa and I found... ... ... ... ... nothing! I then WOKE UP FOR REAL.

Awake/final thoughts

Having just spend what felt like a month and thinking what my dream was like from start to finish I fell out of my bed laughing.
Also looking back, at least in the first run through each dream part, it was very straight forward, and some (not all but some) of the logic made sense and still makes sense. while things were random and funny for most of the time I still felt like it was real. And when I was awake enough to remember everything without laughing I wanted to go back to sleep.

What I learned was dreams can occupie you quite well when asleep, some times even better then real life... lol
