In this thread, you will come and share the dreams you had last night or can somehow still remember more than ten years after having them. Thread guidelines: Your dreams are probably meaningless: Dreams may have a personal meaning to us, but they are almost always figments of your imagination that we try to associate with things after having them. Dreaming about your mom dying in a horrible car accident and then she does a week later is tragic, but it does not mean you are clairvoyant. A dream about hooking up with a friend you haven't seen since high school doesn't mean you're pining for him or her--they're just a familiar entity for your dream. Finding meaning in a dream or a detail about that dream is fine and discussion is encouraged, but don't take it too seriously. If you are having recurring dreams or nightmares about someone that might hurt you, please get help if you can. Don't be a loving creep: Please do not post about sticking your dick in your sister or a skunk or raping your boss. Sex dreams can be funny, but use discretion and don't write about something that may be offensive. When in doubt, don't post it. Nightmares: Sometimes a bad dream is just that--a bad dream. Sometimes it's not just a bad dream. If you are having dreams or nightmares about a traumatic event that happened to you, please seek help if you can. If sharing those dreams is therapeutic, then by all means smash that reply button. And one last time...  IF YOU ARE HAVING RECURRING DREAMS OR NIGHTMARES ABOUT SOMEONE OR SOMETHING THAT MIGHT LEAD TO HARM OR ARE ABOUT A TRAUMATIC EVENT: GET HELP AS SOON AS YOU CAN

Last night, I dreamet about meeting a woman that had a car that could transform into a robot that she could interface with it. She was also associated with the Power Ranger. She fell in love with me. The most believable part of that dream was meeting someone that had a car that could turn into a robot and was affiliated with the Power Rangers.

I dream that I was hanging out with Ilana and Abbi from Broad City. They preformed with Missy Elliot on the top of an apartment complex and after we went to some college quad party. Ilana ignored my advances to hit on some other guys.

Last night, part of my dream was about some kids refurbishing a pedestrian bridge in a public park. They took off the handrails of the bridge and covered it with wooden planks, and it ended up looking like those steeply-arched bridges that you can't really cross and maybe they are more for decorative purposes. Then they wanted to re-do a weird railroad trestle, but that involved more expertise than they had. Then I fell into a lake and admired a field of tulips. Another part I was in a grocery store looking at all the clearance items. There was a big clear garbage bag of disposable tooth floss sticks marked "New and Used" for $6, which was gross but seemed like a bargain for someone who used a lot of those things. Most of them looked new, and even if it turned out half of the bag were used and trash, you'd still be saving money. In another part I either had a baby or was related to a baby or just in charge of a baby who was only two months old and already eating solid food. I guess I wasn't the mom, because I thought that was pretty young to be eating baby food, but that's what the baby was fed. Then the baby started walking and went to school but was still only two months old. I also thought this was weird, but not my baby, not my problem. Toward the end of the dream I was looking at something that had all of these Dilbert characters I had never heard of. Like there were two new Catberts and four Dogberts and other Dilberts. They all looked practically the same except maybe one's ears would be shaped slightly different or would have a different colored tie or something. I was supposed to memorize each new character, and I thought that was an incredibly pointless and annoying thing for anyone to do. There was also other stuff about a garbage disposal, an old apartment where I used to live, mirrors, purses with one side cut out, etc. The usual.

Last night I had a dream about growing corn along the interior walls of a house. It was virtually trouble-free, and the only maintenance required was using a noiseless Dustbuster on the stalks periodically, a task you could assign to your children. You also had to set up an irrigation system that was guaranteed not to mold or disintegrate your house even though it meant the walls would be constantly damp. Maybe you aren't even going to live in the house that long anyway because you discovered the former inhabitants of your entire neighborhood was unethically and possibly illegally removed from their properties. So now you think you'll talk your neighbors into keeping property values where they are now until everything is paid off and then selling it all back to the people who used to live there. For some reason everyone agrees, and that is where the corn wall (?) scheme comes in. Before that I was hiding in busy corridors, occasionally trying to have affairs with young men but there wasn't a single quiet nook in the whole place. Then I hid from my strange frontier family in a bathroom for three months with one of my siblings. The rest were younger -- a set of triplet girls and twin boys -- and they had stayed with my parents. Again, I was trying to avoid detection. It worked because no one bathed, but eventually I decided to leave. One of the triplets saw me, but she didn't say anything. Then I was observing college graduations across the United States. Every college had its ceremony on the same day, and all of the graduates posed outside for a giant nationwide photo. I didn't understand the scale of things because I could see the shapes of each state and also individual people. Some of the states didn't appear to contain more than a hundred or so people and those were just the graduates. Eventually I reasoned that the photo had been edited, and then I was looking at photos from many years ago. Retouching techniques were much cruder in the past, and I could clearly see the outlines where things had been cut. Then I was talking to a girl about to take her final exam which was conducted in a small, windowless room, next to other small, windowless rooms where other students were being tested, only one or two students per room. The professor blustered in and started giving instructions for the test. He thought I was a student and seemed very harried, so I stayed quiet and played along. Part of the exam consisted of loading a model of a gun with a poison bullet. There was no firing mechanism or cylinder, but it was a real bullet that was dangerous to even handle. I got the impression he hadn't actually covered the unit about the gun in class and had run out of time before the year ended. He loaded the bullet and explained exactly what to do and what to write on the test and then wished us luck and raced out to given the same speech to the students in the next room. The girl I was with filled out my test for me. I wasn't worried. A few minutes after the exam had begun for everyone, a girl arrived. She was late and unprepared and said she had missed most of the class anyway and didn't think she should have to take the test now on account of her not knowing the material. The professor said he would have to fail her, and she complained that would ruin her summer vacation plans. Then she started singing about Scar from "The Lion King" in an effort to convince him of her plight, but the professor started singing back about how he knew heartache because he used to have a sister named Reba who died. I realized the professor was Quentin Tarantino, and then I woke up. I looked on the Internet to see if he had a sister in real life. He doesn't, but he did just become engaged 6 days ago to an Israeli woman much younger than him whose last name is Pick. I thought that was weird.

I had a dream where I was at an ATM and couldn't remember my PIN. Pretty mundane dream, right? Except the next day when I went to the ATM to withdraw some money and discovered that the PIN I had been using for about 5 years had been erased from my brain entirely. What the hell, brain?

So about two weeks ago I had a very strange nightmare. I was at my house and everything in the backward was dead, the sky was overcast and I constantly heard a crackling sound. It turns out someone in the family bought a cursed doll as a joke. It looked like a cross between the Babadook and Jigsaw's stupid puppet. Now, all I knew about the doll in the dream is that you were absolutely not supposed to touch it. Suddenly we are in the backyard and the doll is like...budding off into other dolls and insulting us. Now, the thing that stayed with me was the ending: My girlfriend turns to me and says "Please, you're dreaming. Wake up, or they'll be everywhere!" After which I become I aware of my actual body and dream me's body at the same time andi force myself awake. I was too freaked out to sleep the night after.

I get recurring dreams where I get lost in the airport because none of the drat signs make sense. They usually point in circles and I end up in some weird suburban neighborhood and having to take a taxi back to the airport, because the terminal isn't in fact, in the Johnson's backyard. It's very confusing and odd.

Dreams where you realise your dreaming are the best. I had one fairly recently where me and a couple guys from work were playing a round of golf (terribly, I've only played golf one in my life like 15 years ago) and on like the 3rd hole one of the guys was like "Yo Copper, this dream sucks. Let's go do something else" so then we dropped or clubs and left.

Apparently half a bottle of wine was too much for me last night because Admiral Adama lead an away team to rescue Helo from Blood Pirates on Seti Alpha V. He wore the Helmet Invulnerable from that movie Kubo and the Two Strings and blasted the pirates with a laser rifle. Turns out Helo actually escaped with Starbuck (who was undercover as a Blood Pirate) and they were making their way to a space junker when my dog decided to start barking and wake me up.

I have very vivid and real feeling dreams. It's a bit of a bitch tbh as I never feel rested. I dreamed Whoopi Goldberg was trying to drive away from a wizard but he cast a spell on her brakes and she crashed. Also I remember describing something as "tawny" very clearly. Im not sure what tawny actually is.

The most vivid one I ever had was a really surreal nightmare I had when I was 10 (or maybe a little younger?) so about 20 years ago. I keep mentioning my "Dream Intuition" by that I mean facts that I just know about the situation my brain has put me in. I was in this weird area that must have been some kind of urban park due to the places I found myself there. First of all while wandering through it a came across a large apartment block that had had one wall completely torn out, like a tornado had hit. In my dream I intuited that that was the explanation, so the building had some kind of pseudo backstory. In the building I could see a bunch of dinosaurs with cooking pots, and people suspended from the ceiling that my dream intuition knew as ingredients, but the weirdest part was that the dinosaurs were all herbivores, like Triceratops. That last fact only hit me years later when thinking about that dream. Then I wandered a little further, and remember seeing a bush with some kind of creature in it that I never got a good look at, but it introduced itself as "The thing with red glowing eyes" and then it killed me somehow and I woke up. The last thing my dream intuition told me while I was staring at it was that it looked like that swimming pool monster from "Are You Afraid of the Dark" - all red tatters/hair. I think I got a good look just as it jumped out of the bush and killed me.

Finally, a doozy enough to post. I was playing a game (that kept alternating between playing a game and just being in the experience in real life, a common theme in my dreams, I joke that my brain randomly decides what will be more interesting on the fly) were there was a huge worldwide run/march/whatever from A to B. No idea where A or B was, but I was on the east side of Australia going northward. Every town in the world was expected to have something to encourage and entertain people. At one point there was a huge tower I stopped by, but when the doors closed behind me and the ceiling exposed me to the fact that I was actually really high up, in the dream-world I was like "oh, this quest chain is a Main One and I don't want to do it now", so I reloaded myself to being near said tower and moved on. I somehow fast-traveled (image wise, I'm reminded of the Fallout 1 fast-travel map-and-dot look), and I vividly remember understanding that fellow people-and-somehow-also-players would look down on me for that. Time passes, I have lunch with an Australian LP guy I follow (??), I keep going until my feet hurt and I'm tired. After finding a clinic that I think will work (for some reason), and I'm escorted to a dingy room. I realize someone is in there, but before we talk the room is thrown in the air. I'm a lucid dreamer, so I just pulled the rip chord at this point and woke myself up.

Tonight I pulled an Inception and had a dream that I was sleeping and dreaming. And what's more, in that nested dream I was having terrible difficulty getting out of bed in the morning before I "woke up", realized it was morning and I had to get out of bed, and was still so tired that I couldn't. Then I woke up for real and jumped out of bed because I'd had enough of that bullshit. If I hit Submit Reply now and it causes me to wake up in my bed at home I'm just staying in today.

I'm a security guard that drives 12 hours a night around town checking different places, so a lot of my dreams end up in the car. The other night i dreamt i had gone to a cell phone store on duty to pick up screen protectors for my tablet, and Michael Rapaport worked there, and did a really lovely job of putting one on, but got really offended and hostile when i tried to fix it. So i took him along with me on a few rounds so he could prove to me that he knew what he was doing, but it just ended up with me running errands for him all night, and when i ditched him at a gas station, his voice on the radio kept yelling at me all night (probably because he worked at a cell phone store, so he could control the radio waves).

A sprawling complex of Pueblo architecture in what is either the New Mexico desert or the surface of the moon. Night sky, but brightly lit due to either set lights or a lack of atmosphere, and everything is in black & white. In one room, a fat man is lying face down on a table, and is having a unit of blood drawn out of his right buttcheek. This is a superstitious practice done because the people do not understand the science behind blood typing, but I instinctively know his blood type is B+. Upstairs, a woman wearing a white towel wants to take a shower, but there is a large paneless window in the shower, and men climbing around on the walls outside to "wash the windows." She looks out the window down at a pool in the courtyard and realizes that it has not been cleaned for a very long time. Aerial view of the complex. Grandiose prog rock plays while Zeus recites in a booming god voice. Lyrics I recall: "He collects the sweat as it rolls off his Dionysian brow / the only slake the hands of fate allow." "The wine is dead and bottled on the vine." A semicircular amphitheater where a comic play is being performed. Aladdin keeps being thrown in a cell (the cell is backstage and unseen) and breaking out in increasingly elaborate ways. Eventually a helicopter rises up from backstage as triumphant music plays, Aladdin smiles and waves at the audience from the cockpit, and he flies low over the seats to give the audience a thrill as he escapes. I kind of feel like I just dreamed a Guy Maddin film. Rollersnake has a new favorite as of 14:38 on Jul 25, 2017 |

Last night I dreamed about my mother talking me into stealing trucks from Dick's Sporting Goods Park so that we could drive home with them in the snow. After a few times getting away with it, I got caught the fourth time and sentenced to two weeks in jail and my mother got away scott free. I was sent to the Fremont County Jail and it was the most immaculately clean and sparkly place I had ever been to. Smoke damage from a small house fire gives you some weird rear end loving dreams.

Last night one part of my dream I was in a bus driving by lots of colleges. All of the colleges had very old stone buildings. I told the girl next to me the college I went to had not, and she said, "No, I'm sure it did. They all do." Then we were on a campus from a few dreams before, and I told her, "Hey! I know where we are!" Then we were on the campus that it had been in a different dream. I showed her around, and she got very excited and wanted to buy a bracelet. I thought that was nice of her to do. There were other parts to the dream, as usual. I.C. has a new favorite as of 04:04 on Aug 23, 2017 |

That reminds me—I'm continually weirded out by recurring dreams/settings in dreams that I don't recall at all until I dream about them again. When I was a kid, I had an insect phobia nightmare where I was sitting on the living room sofa looking up at the popcorn ceiling when I suddenly realized the ceiling texture was moving. Bugs of all sorts swarming all over the ceiling, walls, floor, couch. I run into my parents bedroom and reach for the phone, and see it's covered in insects too. A few years later, after we'd moved to a new house, I had the exact same dream again, but set in the new house. In recent years, there's been a surreal, incomprehensibly complex highway interchange with a spiral staircase inside a cement pillar that's shown up in various dreams. In the dream I recall most vividly, I walked down the staircase into a grimy, treeless city at sunset. Then I went to a little restaurant where I got a hot dog burrito with a side of "spring sticks"—breaded, fried green onions.

It is a white room, about 25' x 25'. In one corner the women of musical group En Vogue Are singing their hit "My Lovin (You're Never Gonna Get It)" and it sounds great. Second corner of the room is where I am standing. In the third corner of the room is a cloaked figure, think Obi-wan in Star Wars A New Hope, looking at the center of the room and nodding approvingly. The last corner has a card table with a lot of alcohol and pretzels. The center of the room has... Chris O'Donnell in a goldfish costume, being mercilessly whipped by George Clooney and Arnold Schwarzenegger. They are both hitting him with car antennas and laughing with great mirth, while Chris keeps screaming "Noooo noooo I'm sorry please noooooooo" and Arnold laughs and says "look at the fish out of water ahahahaha" When I woke up I realized I fell asleep watching the Rifftrax of Batman & Robin, and my partner had watched Star Wars earlier in the evening, and we had been listening to 90s hits that day too. Somehow my brain mashed all this together into whatever this dream was. ...i have no idea about the goldfish outfit though.

I had a weird experience just two nights ago. In my dream, I was thinking I was going to get some Dream Sex but some woman kept crushing my balls in her hand, and my brain created a pretty good facsimile of complete agony. It just hurt so badly and I couldn't make it stop, no matter what I tried. I don't remember having experienced or remembering severe pain before from dreams and I was cringing with the memory of the "pain" all day long. I thought this was pretty interesting and sort of neat after the fact. I always think nightmares are pretty cool, because if you can feel complete terror and surreal horror and wake up with no real effects, that's a pretty goddamn cool experience. Also an afterthought: I think it's pretty funny the chemicals in my brain were all like... remember that thing you felt that one time that sucked well EXPERIENCE IT AGAIN HAHA e: also if this is creepy I'll rescind it but I just thought it was sort of interesting.

I've had weird dreams where I do something familiar that turns out to not be a thing when I wake up. It's kinda hard to explain. Imagine you're watching Pulp Fiction, then wake up and realize, not only were you just dreaming of watching Pulp Fiction, but there was never such a thing as a movie called Pulp Fiction to begin with. That's what it feels like and it's really unsettling. It usually is movies or other pop culture elements, too. First time I had it happen the plot to the dream-movie was something about five depressed car mechanics who all are terribly disfigured from facial burns. They're in a psychiatric institution and have regular self-help group sessions that are incredibly bleak, but also uncover some kind of conspiracy in the institution. A flashback reveals that they got their burns when they overfilled a Mini Cooper with gas, as in, they put the nozzle straight through the roof and let go until the car bulged out like a cartoon balloon, and one of them had an inopportunely timed smoke. The group sessions are not a good time for him, there's a lot of blame being thrown around.

I remember having a dream about something called Mr. Boppity Kids' Toys. I had to look it up on Google to make sure that it wasn't a real thing or not because I woke up believing that was a real toy store. One day I'll write some Twilight Zone kind of story where that's a thing. Once I get off my kick on aliens abducting farmers or eating people.

Getting lots of clown dreams these past few months. Not necessarily nightmares, but wandering lost in clown towns, or looking for a very specific clown that I only know by makeup, so I have to look at every drat clown face I see. I have had nightmares too though. In a very cinematic dream, I was part of a team that was looking for pennywise in a giant mall (giant malls are another recurring theme). There were several teams and it was a competition. Lots of folks died looking for that clown. I think I might have gone too hard in the IT paint.

It's always the same thing, I've lost my schedule and don't know which class I'm supposed to be in, often I don't know what day it is and what classes I actually take, so It's pretty much like my real high school experience.

Later I was looking for a friend in an underground passage (still at the resort). I was with this girl; we shared a strong mutual dislike, but my friend had invited us both, we'd met by chance on the way and were too polite to ditch each other. But it was super awkward because the passage was where all the young people went to party and gently caress, so there was this pressure of expectation.

Rich Evans of red letter media entered my home under the pretenses of welcoming a new neighbor and surreptitiously stole valuables and also a bunch of important medicine that I needed to not die. Everyone in this situation lived in a gigantic apartment building whose exterior was covered in fire escapes and catwalks; there were no elevators in the building so you had to make your way up the outside. I found his apartment and let myself in, there were no locks on any of the doors in the building. Rich was nowhere to be seen, but Mike Stoklasa was there. He either didn't notice or care about my presence so I was free to move about unimpeded. After some searching I found a small nook in one of the rooms that lead into a little alcove filled with bags, boxes, and shelves full of other people's belongings. I managed to find the two backpacks with my stuff and was getting ready to leave when Rich appeared, blocking the exit and shrilly asking what I was doing back here. I confronted him about the theft and he continuously downplayed it and tried to make it seem like it was somehow my fault he had stolen lifesaving medicine. Eventually I got fed up with it and shoved my way past him in what turned into an extremely undignified slapping match. On my way out I also confronted Mike about it, but he flatly told me that he didn't really care. At that point I realized I had lost one of the two packpacks during the scuffle, and it was the one with the medicine. I left the pack I had with Mike for safekeeping while I doubled back for the other. At some unspecified point latet I remember passing through where Mike was again and noticing the pack I'd left was gone. I asked Mike what the hell and he just shrugged at me. At the end of the dream I had somehow barricaded Rich inside of a walk-in freezer. Rich was screaming for Mike to help him while Mike pretended not to hear. Then I woke up. I haven't watched anything by them in several months, I don't know where this came from.
