I once had this really twisted dream that messed me up. I was so taken by it I fired up my PC and wrote it down.....Im going to dig that up in post in here when I get a chance....

[Soul]

Okay :thumb:

[Kajinku]

Intresting topic. I often don't remember my dreams, and if I do, they are very weird or they are nightmares.

I remember being chased by Nazi soldiers in a brown, greenish environment... weird. I think it was in an old train station or in a concentration camp. I was running my legs off, hearing the bullets fly around me.

Another one was being on a bike, riding down from a small mountain path, after school (which was located on top of the mountain for some odd reason). It was really scary, 'cause it went fast and the rocks were making the task difficult. Plus, it was during the night and the only light I had was the one of my bike. Then I found one of my relatives dead on the path... I woke up after that. ;(

I could go on and on... oh, and I have good dreams too from time to time. ;)

By the way, is their a symbol that represents "dreams"?
Like, a V is the sign for Victory, we all know what the Nazi symbol is, and the male / female symbols. I don't know, an indian? A wolf? An owl?

[Kitiara]

I've got a weird one that I remember from way back. You're all going to think I'm a freak with this. :)

Basically I dreamt that aliens were invading the Earth. Only they had picked Chatham (a town near where I live, absolute dump, full of chavs) as the place to do it. I happen to be in Chatham at the time... only the place has undergone a bit of a renovation and there's water flumes everywhere for some reason.

So... these aliens are arriving and everyone panics, but not me. Oh no. I go into a Clintons Card shop, hand over a tenner and ask the guy behind the counter to make me invisible. He does this. Then he turns himself into a snowshaker.

I'm not making this up. I <i>couldn't</i> make up something this bizarre if I tried.

So I'm wandering around invisible while all these aliens are walking on the streets, and then it all gets a bit fuzzy.

Alright, so maybe I am a freak. :P

The dream I had last night I'll PM you about separately. :bad:

Allright, I'll bite. Ugh. Please please please please, tell us! ;)
This is a typical girl thing... saying A but not B so that all the guys start wondering and daydreaming. Sometimes it works like the girls planned, sometimes the guys make fun of the girls. :P lol

[Kitiara]

Ok, just curious! What do you guys dream about?

Nothing rude please!.... This is why I can't tell you. :P

[Kajinku]

I'm sure we can bend the rules a bit. ;)
Besides, bad words get ****. :P
...and you're not a guy, so don't listen.

[eilsoe]

who'd you kill? =)

[Kitiara]

Who'd I kill? Nobody. :beam:

[eilsoe]

are you suuuure?

[Kajinku]

Replace the word "kill' by... oops, end of post. :P

[eilsoe]

nownow Kajinku! :P

behave :)


(altho yes, I got the idea ;) )

[Kitiara]

<b>*Ahem*</b>

Yes, I think you've figured it out now, well done boys... :sure:

[eilsoe]

no sweat! :beam:

[Kitiara]

And no comment! :)

[eilsoe]

oh yes :)

[Kitiara]

Was that a Churchill Dog reference?

[andr.in]

Right now I'm dreamin' ofthat somebody would steal the 9615 dollars from the teacher who won it in the game "Who wants to be a millionaire?"
Can you believe it? He friggin gave me an F (2) for the last term(1/4 of the year <--- whatever it's called) because he lost one of my tests and told me that I haven't done that test and gave me an X for it! :scream: :angry: and now the year will be a C (3) What is wrong wifth these ppl?
I'm so angry right now!!!!

[eilsoe]

don't bring dogs into a discussion about your fancy dreams, that's just nasty :P

[Kitiara]

It's not me that made that kind of mental connection! That was you! :)

[eilsoe]

you fired the first shot ;)

[Kitiara]

Surreal conversation #2! :)

[Kajinku]

Boring! All blah blah, but we still don't know! ;)

[Soul]

Bend the rules!!! :thumb:

Come on Kit ;)

I used to have a recurring dream about me being stood on a large wooden fence, and on the other side a bull was charging at the fence from afar, I always woke up just as it got to the fence :-\

And I used to have one where I was stuck in a greenhouse because there was a large eagle outside trying to get me :-\

:P

- Soul :s:

[Kitiara]

Like I said, I'll PM you it! :beam:

I used to have strange dreams about fire, that I was stuck inside a burning building...

And I remember one really cool one (I must have been watching Die Hard or something that evening) where me and my friends were defending the building where I worked... We were running round with guns and stuff, that was funny. :P

[Kajinku]

Hey! Nono, you heard Soul, Kit! Bend the rules! He's the rule-maker of this thread so you just *have* to listen to him. :P lol

Soul, about the bull dream, that's normal. No one can die in his own dream, that's just not possible. I don't know why, but it's a fact. It's like, when the bullet is *just* going to hit you, or when you *just* are going to fall in a very deep well... you wake up. It's like your brain tells you "hey, wait a second, you're not dead yet!".

Strange stuff, dreams.

Anyway, we're ready Kit :P

Hey Kit whats a Chav?

[Kitiara]

You haven't heard that term before? I guess it's a Medway one...

OK, the area where I live (Medway) is well known for the state of the people that live there. It's a bit pikey anyway, but there's a lot of people walking round with a ton of gold jewellery, tracksuits, baseball caps, greasy hair, attitude problems... They look really stupid, and haven't got much in the way of brains. These are what we call 'chavs'. :)

For more information about chavs and Chatham Girls, go here - http://www.geocities.com/chatham_girls/home.htm

[fester8542]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....I see

Nope never heard that term before....

[pinx]

last night i dreamt that i was some scientist performing an experiment on this girl in a coma. for some reason she was submerged in a tank of water and had all these tubes going from her nose and mouth. suddenly she opened her eyes, shot up and grabbed me by the neck and started choking me. at that point i woke up.

[Whippersnapper]

I think usually in dreams that involve pain and bathroom activities it means your brain is trying to tell you that you are in pain or have to go to the bathroom. You were probably sleeping with you arm around you neck wierd or something.

[eilsoe]

or you forgot to go to the bathroom :P

[pinx]

i didn't have to go to the bathroom. it was very very realistic like the girl's face turned into something horrible (kinda like the girl in the exorcist) and she was like i hate you i hate you. sooooooo weird. i woke up and my heart was beating really hard.

[pinx]

dammit, i wet my bed again. so that was the smell...:!:

[Whippersnapper]

For example I had this dream that I had to pee real bad, but everywhere I went the bathroom was occupied or locked, finally I find one and it is open and good, except it has one problem there was lobsters in the urinals, and I was afraid that they would snip my wang off. So then I woke up and relieved myself.

[Soul]

Ewww :P

- Soul :s:

[pinx]

hahahah. remember the dream where you had the austin power chest, all hairy and stuff. hahahah

[Soul]

Haha 'wang'!!! :beam:

[Whippersnapper]

that wasn't a dream I'm really that way. yeah baby.

[lava]

I had a dream last night that Jayson Blair committed suicide.

I laughed so hard at this... :P

yeah you know what i like.

[Whippersnapper]

I guess having a really hairy chest is finally good for you.

To see hair in your dream, signifies sexual virility, seduction, sensuality, vanity, and health. It is indicative of your attitudes. If your hair is knotted or tangled, then it is symbolic of uncertainty and confusion in your life. You may be unable to think straight.

To see your chest in your dream, signifies confidence, conquest and vitality. Alternatively, it represents feelings of being overwhelmed and being dangerously confronted by something. Consider also if the dream is telling you that there is something that you need to "get off your chest".

[pinx]

thank you dr. lechner!

[Kitiara]

OK, so what does the bit in my dream mean where the guy behind the counter turns himself into a snowshaker? :)

[eilsoe]

you forgot to put on yer jammies :)

[Soul]

Look it up on that website Kit :thumb:

- Soul :s:

[Kitiara]

Says it's down for maintenance, so I can't look up 'aliens' or 'snowshakers'...

And somehow I'm not convinced by Eilsoe's interpretation. :P

[Soul]

The search function is down, but you can still use the alphabetical bit :thumb:

[Kitiara]

Okaaay... This is what they said about the aliens:
On a psychological level, seeing aliens may represent an encounter with an unfamiliar or neglected aspect of your own self. This is the closest I could get for the snow:
represents a clean start and a fresh, new perspective. It is indicative of spiritual peace and tranquility. And my <i>other</i> dream meant this:
...signifies that others will try to persuade you into illicit pleasures and abandon your own sense of morality. :P

[Soul]

Hehehe! :bad:

- Soul :s:

[Kitiara]

This is of course assuming that I had a sense of morality in the first place... :P

[Soul]

Valid point...

- Soul :s:

[Kitiara]

So either way I'm probably still eccentric. :)

[Raydred]

Most of my treams are so bizzare and out of the norm, i cannot explain it. its odd because there are no words in any language on earth to describe them, but i know exactly what they are =)

Weird, or Very weird.. lol =)

[YoSHi]

my brother had a pretty freaky dream once, we found him half awake in the kitchen with a steak knife against his chest, we woke him up and he was like, wtf, i was dreaming i was falling off a cliff and had almost hit the bottom...

v.v.freaky and scarey as all hell

my dreams however are mostly just weird :)

[Soul]

Yoshi thats really freaky :-\ I'll lock the door now to stop me going for the knives lol

- Soul :s:

[Jasninder]

i dont sleep and dont day dream either :P

[vts31]

i usualy dream about: random stupid stuff or sex.

[Alex]

i usally dream about random stuff. some times really scary dreams, or something with me running down the street and slowly taking off into the air and flying.

The weird thing is, when i have a scary dream, i know when to wake up. i could never do it before, but now i can wake my self up.

Some times i sleep walk, i almost walked out the door in my boxers! :P

i also sometimes tell my brother to shut up when im in dead sleep.

:P :P :P

I have, Soul. I had a dream once that I was helping Russian Beer write VRML through PMs. It was really pissing me off cuz I couldn't get the code right. And one time I had a super dirty dream about someone... on here... they know who they are. ;)

Most of my dreams are lucid. That means that your conciousness recognizes that you are dreaming. There are many levels of lucidity, from vaguely being aware of your concious existance, to full recognition and ultimate control. I have a lot of control which can be quite the experience. But some elements in dreams can not be controlled; these are elements from the collective consciousness. Reoccuring characters can be an external force or an internal, but with me they are usually external.

Modern culture unfortunately doen't hold much validity in dreaming, and dreaming is virtually a lost art. But there still exists a tribe in Malaysia called the Senoi that bases their society on dreams. They are very family oriented, and live in community longhouses, with each family having its own section. Breakfast consits of a dicussion of the night's dreams, and the people base their community activities on such. Morning chores are done, and the bulk of the day is spent in the celebration of life and the preparation of decorations and costumes for festivals and stuff. They are extremely healthy, and never fight, amongst themselves or with others. They are surrounded by war-like cultures, but exist in a utopian peace because the other tribes fear that they are magical and supernatural because of their health and serenity. Although the basis of their society is not practical for our modern lifestyle, much can be learned from their approach. They belive in confronting your fears and obstacles in dreams, and since most of the bad things in our dreams come from within, when we confront them we can learn a lot about ourselves and grow from that.

I have one reoccurring dream that bugs me the heck out and I have not been able to interpret or bring myself to face it. Basically, I am trying to get away from something. I am seeking refuge in a room with a door, but when I try and close the door, it is about 1-2 inches too short for the frame (width-wise), so it will not close. Sometimes I can stretch the door manually, and get it to close, but usuallly I can't and whatever I am runnign from seeps through the door and envelopes me in darkness....

[reverendflash]

my mother was big into dreaming, sleep cylces, etc.

I, myself dream lucidly most times I remember my dreams. I rarely remember the entire recurring dream. Just for weeks at a time sometimes my dreams will "degrade" into a certain focal point. It could be a metallic square at a certain angle pared with a certain sound, that will just give me the chills. Then they go away... I still get weird feeling when I will see something in real life (I'm assuming this is real life) that keys that same response, and that image will appear in my mind for a split second.

Luckily, while I worked as a retail manager (in order to stop dreaming about work), I taught myself how to wake myself up if I dreamt about work. It became habit, and I use the same kind of technique to get out of all kinds of situations. It rarely fails.

It's even more fun(gus) when done ritually, or in groups...

Revhttp://www.aulman.com/rev.gif

[Illuminae]

hehe, fungus. Has anyone ever seen Waking Life? If you are interested in dreams, awesome animations, or even just funky trips, it's a good film to check out. Your bit about dreaming about work reminded me of it reverend. When I started a managing job a few years back, they were working me so hard that I dreamt about work all night too for about a month. It was quite hard to break that one. Usually in dreams I am wearing what I wore to bed, unless I change my clothes in the dream, so I just slept in the buff, and that killed my inclinations to work in my sleep. It certainly was a good "hellO YOU are DREAMing" call. hehe.

[reverendflash]

I love it when I invent new people and animals. Tho, it was tough to stop dreaming that my mom and her mom were still around, and going on trips with me. They started about a year after they passed away. Lasted for months... kinda freaky. I knew in my dream they weren't real, but I played along anyway...

I feel much better now...

Revhttp://www.aulman.com/rev.gif

[Illuminae]

have you ever met a gazorp? i'm going to bed soon, so i'll try to dream up one and send it your way. a gazorp is a big lumbering hippo/dragon that eats everything. they are really freindly, but really lazy. so you have to tempt it with stuff to wake it up. but then they are fun to ride.

[reverendflash]

no, I haven't...

most animals I invent are small, cute and cudley... unlike my cat, Stan... large, fat, and not cudley at all... except when it's his idea...

Last night I dreamed that I was playing football for England... This was very strange. Sven was there, everything. Although we seemed to be playing in a park. :smirk:

I think I'm losing it. :)

(And I've also had a dream about someone on here too, and they also know who they are. :) )

hmm....

The thing you are trying to get away from (whatever it is) is some sort of problem you are having (probably emotional as you don't seem to give it any particular form). The fact you are seeking refuge IN a room instead of escaping a room shows that you are seeking solace and your own personal space, perhaps trying to escape from the world outside. The thing seeping through the door and covering you in darkness and the fact you keep dreaming this shows that you see it as inevitable.

As for the door not shutting, that could be a number of things. Maybe the door represents some sort of emotional barrier you have built, but you see it as being built wrong. Or maybe you actually WANT this thing to get you.
Somtimes you can stretch the door, so this shows that sometimes you feel you have the strength to deal with whatever problem is, and sometimes you feel you cant.



.....or maybe im talking crap and i read too much into things. :)

[Illuminae]

olly, what a wonderful interpretation!
my hero :love:

[Illuminae]

ok. so. i had horrible, no good, very bad dreams last night. unfortunately my brain has blocked them out already but they have left me with one of those horrible empty queasy feelings... ya know what i mean? one of those feelings that can only be fixed by lots of hugs or chocolate ice cream. ..........running to the store.....

[TheOrangeOne]

heh, i try. I like hearing other peoples dreams. It helps me understand mine.

*gives lots of hugs and ice cream to Golgi*

That's almost impossible. I read a lot of stuff about this, it is actually not possible. Now, I'm not saying you're making this stuff up :) but what happens afterwards? So, you're dreaming lalala and suddenly bam, you die. And then what?

[TheOrangeOne]

its happened to me, whenever i dream i die, i wake up from the shock! Although i suppose that nothing else happens in the dream, if thats what you are trying to get kajinku.

[Kajinku]

Yes, almost. :) Just when the bullet is going to hit you, just when you are about to fall (sometimes even with the picture of yourself falling), you wake up in shock. *In* the dream you can never see yourself hit by the bullet, or you can never see yourself splash on the bottom of the well. Usually people think they saw themselves dying because your brain "stiches" (sp?) the obvious ending to it, but you already woke up by then. You can see other people die in your dreams though.

There's a small exception... people can see themselves *being* dead in a dream, like a ghost looking at its body. But there's never a cause to the death in this case.

I hope this is clear enough... my English isn't working to well today. :crazy:

[TheOrangeOne]

Yeah, i know what you mean. I have seen myself die once, but it was like watching someone else die - I didn't feel any pain. Almost as if i was a ghost watching it.
Dreams like that shock you, but they're ok because you wake up and you KNOW you are still ok and it was a bad dream.

The worst dreams are when you imagine somthing bad happening,nothing really bad, but somthing that will worry you for the rest of the day.

[Kajinku]

Did you see yourself actually die or were you already dead?

[Black_Lightning]

.... one, two freddy's gonna come for you ;), good thing you don't die in your dream cuz in the movie that was bad =)

intresting topic but i don't have much to say in it since i usually don't remember my dreams. Sometimes there is one that really pops out most of the time because it's so spooky i wake up in the middle of it.

Like this one time i was walking around n the town i live in. everybody i know lived there (reall strange since some ppl i know live quite far away).

i was just walking down the street with some friends when there when the power went off. Everything was pitch black. and then there was an alien invasion. big lit up ships hovering over the city. We tried to run but every one had turned into an alien already.. yeah i know it sounds like the average hollywood b-movie but it was quite a creepy experience ;). Especially the feeling that you are the only one left alone on earth, and there isn't a sound around you. (lol yeah i dream in color and thx sound ;) )

freakiest thing bout some dreams is waking up in the middle of em and not knowing you dreamt it or if it's real

[kirupa]

A lot of interesting dreams you all have :) I don't usually remember most of my dreams, but here are the top 5 wierdest dreams that I recall being in:

1. Dressed up like Link from Zelda and running around with a sword slashing strange plant things; some of those plants were the very same ones my parents requested me to help plant earlier that day.

2. Instead of me throwing small ping-pong balls at my cat to chase around the floor, I was chasing the ping-pong balls while my cat watched over me and laughed - that was a long time ago.

3. Entering into a huge Matrix-like building with a lot of people and a few minutes later finding myself in some upper-level floor with everyone outside on the ground while I was all alone up there. I could fly though, so I flew down :)

I guess I only have three that I actually remember...

Cheers!

lol. ok, this isn't directed at you kajinku, so please please don't think it is, but i know what those scientists think too, and it makes me RILED UP that they think they can determine what my brain can and can not do. i've reserched dreams and brains and all that juicy stuff, and i am well aware that the common opinion is that it's not possible. but lets look objectively at the human brain. how much DON'T we know about it compared to how much we DO. you'll see that we know hardly anything, when looking at the whole picture. basically, i know what science says, and i also know that science is dead wrong on this one.

here is a light sampling of my death experiences:

*one time i was on top of a building, and the world was blowing up, and there was this huge mushrooming ball of fire ripping across the world getting closer and closer. i just looked at it,, cuz what else could i do? hehe. anywhoo, the fire finally reached me, and my entire body exploded/incineerated simultaneously. at that moment, i could feel the sensations of becomign particles and blowing off into different directions, and after that my dream consiousness floated a bit above and saw the fire, and the ruin, and some more stuff happened, but that's not the interesting part

*one time i got into this fight with someone and they were trying to kill me and i was tryign to defend myself. but they had those big long finger blades, like whats his name from that cartoon, so he was winning. anyway. he won. he cut me up across my arms and chest, and yes, it hurt. then finally he sliced my throat open and left me to die. in the dream i was in excruciating pain and also i was suffocating and choking on my blood. soon i died. everythign went black and just stopped.

*another time i was in a hospital. it was filling with water, and i was drowning. eventually i died. that one was interesting cuz i really was in a hospital, and i really did die at that moment in real life. but then i came back to life. (cuz i couldnt leave kirupa.. hehe)

*lots of other assorted encounters with evil things, wild animals, accidents, old age, all sorts of ways death occurs. sometimes things just stop. somtimes after a bit my dream consiousness will rise out of my body and move on to do other stuff. sometimes my consiousness will leave my body before i die and i will see myself die like orange's. one time my consiousness actually went further inside my body,a nd i watched myself die from the inside out; saw all the cells dying and stuff.

oh well. there ya go. :beam:

p.s. thanks orangeone ;)

I am so with you on this one. Thats why I will not ever go back to a shrink. It can do nothing more than screw you up worse to have them clumsily kicking around your head.

BTW...I certainly dont believe you can physically die from dying in your dream....I as golgo would be dead many times over if that was the case.

hehehe, fester, maybe it's just a bostonian thing ;)

It is reassuring to no there is more weird people then you out there.

i sat here and found out of the all the posts Kit's the funnist. a snowshaker:sigh:

dam girl... what were you smoking?:smirk:

[Kitiara]

I just have intensely surreal dreams! :blush:

I honestly have no idea what was going on with that one, or what's weirdest. Going into Clintons to become invisible or the guy turning himself into a snowshaker... :sure:

The whole alien thing kind of became a background story in the end. :) Maybe I'd had a little too much caffiene that day? :)

Golgi, I'm no scientist or something, and believe what you wrote. I just wrote what I read and heard before. :) It's true that we don't know much about the human brain.
Anyway, I really enjoyed reading your dreams... if that's a correct word for them. Pardon me, but they are very f****d up! ;)

Wha-what?! Did you have a BDE (that's how we call it over here)?! That might explain why you actually *can* see yourself die in your dreams. Again, scientists are convinced that after such a BDE experience (*), the person is not afraid of death anymore, which can create... well... your dreams.

You have an intresting brain there. ;)

(*) BDE, in Dutch = Bijna Dood Ervaring.

no one knows my body like i do. and it gets my goose broiling that modern "eduamcated" scientists think they have the right to say they know more about me then me..
i could spew off some more examples, but i think this dream bit is sufficient.. lol... kirupaland doesn't need to know that much about me.

ok, enough of rant part 2.. lol ;)


Pardon me, but they are very f****d up!

oi, that's just the tip of the iceberg. heheh. i should sell tickets into my head, like, er, "being golgi malkovich" hehehe. i'd make loads.


Wha-what?! Did you have a BDE (that's how we call it over here)?! That might explain why you actually *can* see yourself die in your dreams. Again, scientists are convinced that after such a BDE experience (*), the person is not afraid of death anymore, which can create... well... your dreams.

hehe, good thing you translated that for me, cuz i had no clue what you meant. :)
yeah, i did have one. after an accident, i'll leave the details out, but i was in the hospital and was pronounced dead. i can only assume that's when i died in the dream as well. although in a situation like that, you start to wonder about your states of consioucness, and how dependent they are on eachother, and how reality plays into that too. ah, well, that only happened 3 years ago, but i've been dreaming the death dreams long before that. hrm. that's interesting, that they say that after you have no fear of death you can have death dreams. perhaps that "door" simply has to be "unlocked" then for a person. verrry interesting.. *arching eyebrow*

The last 2 nights I have had dreams about UFO's and aliens. The first one wasn't anything special. Just saw a couple of UFO's. The second dream though was a bit more interesting. Somehow I had got into what seemed to be a top secret room and there were aliens inside and one of them was friendly to me :) I only remember parts so it might sound a bit weird when I write it here. I can remember being shown how to be invisible to other people and how to walk through solid objects... uhh that might be all I can remember... there was more I know but I just don't know how to put it all together.

It was cool. All I had to do was say "invisible" and it did the trick. :beam: I wonder if I will have a 3rd alien related dream tonight.

I don't know if anyone has posted this question but you know how we have hundreds of dreams a night (maybe?)? Well are the dreams you remember always the last ones you have jusst before waking up?

Invisible... :alien:

[fester8542]

I had a very very twisted dream last night. Well to be honest I have been having trouble sleeping and having strange dreams when I do for the past few nights. Which is odd considering I dont dream often.

If your interested:

*****************************

It was a b-day party for me being held at my godmothers house (who I haven’t seen in years) with all the extended family I never see there. But it wasn’t her house, It was this gorgeous mansion on a hill. There was this cute older chick that was hitting on me wicked hard ..... she then took me aside after a while...for well yaknow...anyway....she turned into this freaky demon-ish thing once she got out of the sunlight. Did everything in her power to scare the hell out of me. From making things disappear making vampires appear. But only I was the only one that knew this because wherever my family was there was sunlight so she looked normal.

So I tried to take off in my car, bombed down the street until she was behind me, a cop was chasing another car in the crossing street so i slowed down not to hit them, and the freaky chick slammed into the back of my car. Then I looked behind me and she wasn’t in the car behind me anymore. So I got out and went to look at the damage only to notice all four tires on my car had been slashed. I look to the front of the car and she was standing in the woods holding a knife smiling and waving.

So I ran back to the house where everyone was. She was already back there, now with this guy that was also freaking looking. They kept making very scary things happen whenever I was alone. i will spare you the twisted details.

I tried to explain what was going on to my oldest sister and her husband. Dave (her husband) wouldn’t even look at the freaky two. Lauren just thought I was cracked. So after a while of windows blowing in on me, TV’s flying around the room and horrible noises. I decided to go out buy the pool and get out of the house.

So I was swimming in the pool and the evil chick came out. Wearing bathing suit and jumped in the pool. She came up to me and apologized and said she wanted to make it up to me. (Hey it was a dream)

So I accepted and followed her into the house. Down this long hallway that just ended with a long wall. She pressed on a certain part of the wall and it opened up and we went it. It was this small dark closet. That creepy guy was in there too.

So she hands me this creeeeeeeeeeepppppyyyyy old dirty doll that my mom used to have in a chest in the house I grew up in. It was this old dirty doll that when you tipped it right side up the eyes would open and say mama.... but it sounded so horrible and evil because the mechanism inside it was from the 50's.... uggghhhhhh I hated that thing!

Anyways she started pressing different parts of the doll and it would make even more evil noises like kids singing and laughing.... it was messed.

So I all of a sudden (and I have no idea how) figured everything out. She was Daves (my sister’s husbands) ex girlfriend and was trying to scare me into getting him to talk to her again. Not to get back together but just to talk because he abruptly left her.

Mind you this never happened in real life I completely fabricated it in my head.

So I flipped out and called her out that she wasn’t a demon or a vampire called her every bad name I could think while smashed her in the face repeatedly with the creepy doll.

Ran out to where my family was all while dragging the creepy guy by the throat and threw him on the floor in front of them. He turned out to be the girl’s husband and was just playing along with the idea she had. I was so furious I just kept kicking him in the stomach probably 30 or so times.

I then flipped out on my family about how twisted this was to do on my birthday....

Then all of a sudden my legs didn’t work and got all numb.... I couldn’t walk and I fell to the floor. I crawled back to the driveway... that’s when I woke up completely covered in sweat....breathing heavily.....

[RabBell]

aawwww sounds like a lovely dream fester...did you get a cake ;)

seriously though that does sound creepy :evil:

[fester8542]

The dream I had the night before was pretty messed up too. But not nearly as bad as that...

I cant seem to stop thinking about it.

[Seb Hughes]

Fester i i liked reading i would rwad your dream but i dont so i wont read it,

[RabBell]

it was a creepy dream, entertaining for me has to be said, but yeah quite creepy

I can sympathise with the end cause that happens in some of my dreams. My legs go numb and I can't run just as I'm being chased by something or somebody

my girl is jealous cause I can sometimes have dreams about a tv show or movie and I'm not in it. I had a dream once about Michael Douglas caught up in some kind of cover up and I wasn't even in the dream. That was an entertaining one, I woke up looking for a notepad and pen but by the time I'd found one I'd forgotten the plot.
Last week I dreamt I was in CSI and the locals we're pissed off at me cause I'd uncovered some evidence to implicate the local hero and I was trying to phone Grissom but I didn't have his number on my mobile. I actually woke up thinking "D**k, imagine not having your bosses number on your mobile"

[Seb Hughes]

Thanks Rab for the one line summary , see why need a big long piece or wrirting when rab here can put it into 1 :)

[fester8542]

Well that a a summary of his dream.... :lol:

not mine seb

The reason mine was so long was because I remember it in VERY vivid detail.

Thats funny rab that Michael Douglas dream is interesting ;)

[Tommy_S]

I usually see dreams with nude gols, haha. :P

[Seb Hughes]

What the **** is a GOLS

[Tommy_S]

What the **** is a GOLS
Not is, but are and without the indefinite article. Gols - girls, chicks. ;)

[lunatic]

My guy once explored an entire dreamtown for almost a year. Every night when he slept he would go back to this town and revisit it, cruise around, check things out. I think that's pretty cool.

I also have very vivid dreams fester. Sometimes they get ahold of you and you can't shake them for days. Yours sounds creepy. :pirate3:

[fester8542]

I need a reoccuring dream town dream :P

As long as none of the characters from last nights escapade are there ;)

Thats how I feel now, I keep trying to remember more. I wish I wrote it all down last night.

It was creepy. And I am not easily creeped out :lol:

[blackjersey]

Learn how to pray before you sleep. That should eliminate those bad dreams. Anything else, avoid sleeping with your body facing the cieling... try sleeping sideways.

I used to be a sleep-walker by the way. Now that is creepy.

[ben_is_sparky]

Nowadays about half my dreams are internet based, shows wat I think about. :P

I think I've had a couple of kDreams but I can't remember them.

The one dream I have never forgotten was when I was really young, like 3 or 4 or something. I was walking along the road and someone was cutting their hedge. They shouted at me and were horrible. I looked across the street, and there's this shop. In the window, on shelves, are rows and rows of medusa heads that turn me to stone.

That dream has freaked me for years... :O

[a_richards25]

Hi guys...

Some of you mentioned the feeling of being numb during your dreams. And that this "thing" occurs when some kind of monster chases you... i saw this program once where some scientists were explaining this experience. I'm gonna try make this short (so that you don't fall a sleep!! :hugegrin: ...ok that was cheap!)

Well the reason why people tend to experience this numbness during dreaming was according to this program, the fact that the brain during sleep release some kind of hormon or whatever that mildly paralyses you. This is basicly done to prevent you from running around IRL when you are in fact only dreaming that you are running around!

To sum all of the above up in short terms: -in some states of dreaming you can sometimes wake up just enough to feel that you are paralysed but without actually waking up! And that often occurs when people are having bad dreams!

I hope this makes some sense to you guys...

[hl]

last night i dreamt i bought a 178 grand car...

best dream ever!

[a_richards25]

:party: were u numb in any way? :party:

No just joking...

[RabBell]

girl I used to know did psychology at uni

in one class they were talking about dreams and the lecturer asked someone for a recurring dream and he would tell them the reason behind the dream. remember the lecturer is a qualified psychologist. this guy puts up his hand and he says "I have a dream my teeth keep falling out"
the lecturer says "actually this is a bit personal and I don't think I should say the reasoning behind your dream in front of the entire class"
but the guy says "no I don't mind, on you go just tell me"
so the lecturer says "fine. The reasoning behind your dream is...you masturbate too much"

man did that class laugh at that guy :lol:

[fester8542]

Still cant get that bad boy off my mind.

:beer: I think I am going to have a few beers tonight to ensure I dont have another dream..... a few nights in a row is enough for me

:thumb:

[ditt0]

I used to dream that I was flying. I had such a feeling of freedom and power! Though it looks kinda funny now, imagining me like some sort of Harry Potter flying or levitating :) Yet i miss those dreams. Also had a time when all i dreamt was nightmare.Wonder what will come next...:h:

[pastey]

I dreamt last night I was working in an addidas retail store and P-Diddy was coming in for a special fitting so I had to clean the place up, shoo the customers out and cook a chicken in one of the fitting rooms . . . .yeah - it cooked really well too!

[Cobol]

You don't want to know what I dream! My therapist says aslong as I take my medication I should be fine.

[pomogranate]

Soul, about the bull dream, that's normal. No one can die in his own dream, that's just not possible. I don't know why, but it's a fact. It's like, when the bullet is *just* going to hit you, or when you *just* are going to fall in a very deep well... you wake up. It's like your brain tells you "hey, wait a second, you're not dead yet!".

Strange stuff, dreams.

Anyway, we're ready Kit :P

I've died in a few of my dreams;P

[GreenLantern]

Last night I had a dream that I was at somebodies house and they had a dirtbike. But Nobody knew how to ride it. I use to have a dirbike so I was showing poeple how to ride it, except I was really just showing off on it doing a bunch of tricks and jumping around on it. There was some kind of ramp on the side of this guys house. When you hit this ramp you would go straight up in the air, and you had to turn the bike sideways and land it. I was pretty good at it, and I kept jumping higher and higher. Then one time I jumped really really high. In the middle of the air I got that "oh sh*t, i'm going to crash" feeling. I remember looking down and there was just a bunch of concrete and stairs. I knew it was going to hurt really bad. Right before I hit, I woke up, swung my arm out, and knocked the light on my night stand over.

Overall it was a pretty cool dream. My dreams usually involve being killed, or killing, or blood, or something dying.

I've died in my dreams numerous times... then i'd wake up in the morning realizing i'm not dead :)

[Prancer]

But how do you know what death is like? So then how can your mind simulate a death?

[Phat7]

Dying in a dream is good. That's what I always hear from elderly. :ponder:
If you see someone die, you prolong his life. :ponder:

I'm always being chased in my dreams. Almost always!

It's also said that those who dream in color are more intelligent. I dream in 3D. :ponder:

[ben_is_sparky]

I used to have a dream where I could fly. It was weird, like extra muscles or something and I'd be able to float a bit so long as I was moving around. Odd. :puzzle:

Because I was really young, I could never quite remember weather I'd been dreaming or not, so I went around for ages convinced I could fly, but unable to do it.

[RabBell]

I had a dream where I was a gangster in chicago in the 30's. At the end of the dream I walked out this door in a building and a guy standing behind it shot me in the back of the head. I stumbled forward and fell over the bannister then down the stairs...

that was a cool dream actually, weird I didn't wake up until I stopped falling down the stairs :cool:

[[uber]]

I have a weird habit of dreaming and sleeping within the realm of reality and conciousness... meaning.. i don't dream about pink toads singing me songs or getting chased by david bowie.....

I normally dream an alternate present.. what i would be doing if i was awake.. or something that i might do after i wake.... sometimes i dream snapshots of future events... and i don't notice until that event happens and that picture matches up with the current event i'm in... i guess deja vu... but i think of it more like tvguide for my life.... i'm not kidding you guys either.. .i really dream what i'm gonna eventually do... its scary.. but i can't comprehend whats in my dreams until it already happens... so... premonition skills i have not...


or sometimes i dream along with the sounds i hear around me... alot of times i get a dream where i'm walking and i trip.. and my feet literaly jerk like they fell.... and i wake up....

[DarkChild]

i have the exact same thing. a couple of weeks ago, i was at a club, chillin' with a cig, when there were 2 guys passing by, and one was yelling out loud against the other "hit me up another martini!" and i was like "what the hell?!?". pretty strange...

[Deaddocus]

Look up: causes of Deja Vu on Google or so, ;).

Scientists say it has to do with a slower reception of impulses and such. :P

Uber, you should write those dreams out right when you wake up. then you can really check if you have seer abilities or not, like GL has in the movieqoutes thread *nods*

I haven't had many dreams lately, not ones that I recall anyways.

[Mik3]

It's also said that those who dream in color are more intelligent. I dream in 3D. :ponder:

I dream en pixelated, 2d, black % white. I must be liek da smartist!!!

well for one thing... we aren't dreamin now cause we all are freakin awake,, i'm gonna go off to bed... i'm freakin deadhttp://jlcjr1104.nextelbroadband.net/undead.gif

Has anybody ever heard of lucid dreaming? If not you should be opening google and searching for it now.

It's basically training yourself to be awake, and thus control your dreams. I was into it a few years back, and I have been thinking about getting back into it.

[RabBell]

not sure if it's the same thing but I've always had the ability to wake myself from my dreams if they become creepy, freaky, scary or even just boring...in the dream I think "I'm outta here" and I wake up, works everytime

[GreenLantern]

Ya, that's like half of it.

Instead of saying "i'm outta here" and waking up, lucid dreaming trains you to stay asleep and change whatever is scarying you.

[fester8542]

:lol:

Wish I had that ability the other night GL.

I am going to look into this :thumb:

[DarkChild]

oohhh, did lil' fessy have a bad dream? :P

[fester8542]

its all good jigga :beam:

[lunatic]

GL I had a friend/housemante who was really big into lucid dreaming. He did a lot of cool stuff in his dreams. He claimed he met other lucid dreamers too and had some crazy conversations.

The only time I'm ever able to wake myself up is when I have to pee. You know, you're running around in your dream, and you can't get anything done because you keep trying to find a bathroom. Then you brain takes over and says WAKE UP RIGHT NOW OR YOU ARE GOING TO EMBARASS YOURSELF. And you wake up and kinda go "whoa, I better get up". :ne:

[Deaddocus]

i lucid dream alot..... its fun.... its also good when you need to stay alert... especially in rough situations....

[GreenLantern]

I'm not sure what happened to the lucidity institute (lucidity.com) It was just working the other day.

Try this one: http://www.dreamviews.com/

[fester8542]

I just read that whole site GL...

Thats incredibly interesting stuff :thumb:

[ben_is_sparky]

or sometimes i dream along with the sounds i hear around me... alot of times i get a dream where i'm walking and i trip.. and my feet literaly jerk like they fell.... and i wake up....

I get that sometimes too, By the time I land I'm awake and in my bed, but I really feel like I was falling, it's odd...

This lucid dream stuff sounds cool. :D
