The Dream Thread, Mommy! I had a nightmare! Options

Oh cool, I've heard of that kind of thing happening to people before. By any chance, did you feel like you were floating above your body as you were falling asleep?

Sorry if that sounds weird, we were talking about this kind of thing in one of my Oriental Medicine classes at my acupuncture school.

Anyone slept walk here before? My sister did once. I actually thought someone broke in our house.

When I was little I did it in a hotel. My parents told me I actually unlocked the door and ran down the hallway, until they caught me.

OMIGOD YOUR ICON IS DARKWING FUCKING DUCK

...Er, I mean.

Last night I had a dream Edward Cullen was in a supermarket with me, and using me as bait to catch a pedo. Then, from the loudspeaker, someone said something along the lines of, "Attention, there is a vampire in the store. Please run around in panic."

Turned out the pedo was a mob-boss and he used me and Edward to do sick challenges in a field behind the supermarket. Edward had to sit on a cooler with the mob bosses fathers remains in it.

That sick bastard! Going into girls dreams now! I guess mind reading wasn't enough for him.

I once dreamed that my sister took me shopping at a blacklight-lit mall to shop for - I shit you not - a rainbow dildo.

One of my more WTF-worthy ones, but I barely remember it.

I then ran around a steampunk version of my city with Spiderman's powers.

[Valkyrie]

BWAHAHA! Rainbow dildo! That made my night.

[Badass Overlord]

I loved steampunk technology. I had a dream a long time ago where I ran around in a steampunk mecha thing. I think it had to do with the fact that I was playing .hack G.U.

I once had a dream God told me I had fucked up as a human being and pulled the spirits/whatever out of trees and shit.

I was like, Fuck you, man, I didn't do anything!

And yeah. Those challenges? EC Is NOT reliable in a tight spot. He told me to get closed to the pedophile so he could smell me. You think I'm kidding?

Ever since I read this topic, I looked on my handy dandy notebook of dreams/story-ideas and I found this one dream I had sometime around 2007. In it I was working at this market place selling fish. I was tearing off the heads of small mermaids as they cry for mercy, only to be eaten by hungry, white looking asians. I think I cried when I woke up.

[Haley Heroine]

I-I'd cry, too.

No, but I did feel pissed afterwords because I had finally managed to calm myself down enough to sleep and then my stupid body wakes me up >:(

Has any one had those lucid dreaming type moments where you realise you're in a dream and can have some control over it? It's happened to me at times like where I was about to be attacked by the devil and another demon so I activated a forcefield and flew away.

Another weird thing I have with dreams is that sometimes I'll dream about a mundane snippet in my own life and then weeks or months later, it will happen with a weird mental backlash to remind me it was in my dream. Pretty weird, huh?

[Haley Heroine]

God, that happens all the time with me! Well, the latter. I rarely find out I can control my dreams, and when I do, I wake up.

[Badass Overlord]

I've had that happen before. Sometimes I can shift my current dream into an entirely different one.

I kinda did with that "underground railroad fight" dream I had. I got to decide my strikes and blocks.

One time I dreamed I was flying around a farm that looked like it was from an old Spyro game, and there was an old lady yelling at me.

Posting it because the feeling of flight is amazing when you're dreaming.

["That One Guy"]

I never fly in any of my dreams. I don't have those "falling" dreams either. I'll get thrown (Like one time I was launched form a catapult) and I'll go really high up in the air and think "Fuck I'm gonna die" or "This is gonna hurt" and then I fall and just before I hit the ground...I keep dreaming. I hit the ground and bounce off. Not like trampoline bounce, but "You just got thrown really far and you still have kinetic energy" bounce. Then I get up, brush myself off and continue on like it was nothing. But every time, the adrenaline rush of "fuck fuck fuck I'm falling" is still there. It climaxes (lol) as I hit the ground, and then immediately dissipates.

I remembered I had a dream where my dog turned into a hellhound. It was rather funny since he's a fat, lazy miniature poodle who's very temperamental. My dog dreams. He whimpers and moves his legs like he's running. He's fallen off the couch before because of that.

I have dreams where I'm in school, but I know it's summer, but no one seems to notice. I also used to have dreams where I was in middle school or elementary school, but I was supposed to be in high school. I knew I was dreaming, so I got away with beating the shit out of some smug bullies I used to have to deal with. I busted through the class window on a motorcycle, right as the teacher was reading a line out of possibly the most boring book I ever had to read, The Pearl. I took out a flamethrower and torched all of the books. I then pulled out a minigun, and I pumped all the assholes I hated full of lead. The one guy I severely punished was a kid who claimed to have Tourettes, like me. I knew he was full of shit in real life, cause he thought that would get him attention, but I pointed out to him that he was doing it wrong, and I bashed his face in. I got two Saturday schools. What I did in the dream was much more gruesome. I impaled him Vlad Tepes style and stuffed him full of baseballs, and then wailed on him with a spiked baseball bat, while laughing like a maniac. I went into therapy shortly after. Middle school was hell for me. So much my dreams were fucked up.

Last night I dreamed that I was at a party of sorts, I don't remember much. But over time the house became kind of like a backstage thing, with over-hanging lights and what not. So I'm sitting at this table with some people, and I turn to talk to someone or do something, and when I turn back everyone at the table has this look of shock on their faces...Because one of the overhanging lights fell on one of the people at our table. No one cleaned it up or anything, and we all just kind of ignored it. This happened two or three more times before I decided to get the fuck out of there (wake up) before it happened to me.
