Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!

Quote from M.troid#12:

What do you think it means?

I tend not to believe the whole 'dreams mean something' idea. I think that they are just the wanderings of your own imagination, only reachable since you're in an extremely relaxed mental state. I am fairly certain that the majority of dreams also take inspiration from outside influence, even if it is subconsciously.

Not impossible

just highly unlikely

The most recient dream I can actually fully remember was from a couple of years ago, a little while after my dad passed. In the dream, he came back to life, but only for a few days. It was beautiful and horrible.

Quote from Poision Envy:

OK so in my dream I was at my house when suddenly someone was at the door, and when I opened it Arkarian was standing there. Ark was like "Envy, you HAVE to record your zero mission run so you can beat the world record".

I laughed so hard when I read this. I've had seriously 3-4 dreams where I talk with people I've never seen or spoken to before and they almost always make zero sense.

Recently had a dream I met a friend of mine who plays WoW with me...except I've never seen a photo of him before. It was really strange. It was like he didn't have a face but it didn't bother me. Extremely hard to explain. It wasn't blank...he just didn't have a face. I was trying to help him fix his car and bitched to him about guild members.

One of the weirdest dreams I've had in a long time was a dream where I was 2 people at the same time. One was a robot and the other was girl who was somehow connected to the robot. Strangest part though was that I could think, move, see, hear from both of them at the same time. It wasn't like split screen, I have no idea how to explain how it worked.

100% serious here. I had a dream where I was talking to a girlfriend of mine in the future and I mentioned something about her mother then she said not to bring it up because her mom had died. I actually mentioned the dream to her and her mom and they laughed it off. About two months later her mom actually died from a cerebral hemorrhage. She was overweight and a smoker so it wasn't completely unlikely but still pretty messed up.

I've had numerous dreams like that, but for the most part, I'm sure it's coincidence.

I had a dream that I was shot, and then I was (see previous dream on page one).

I had a dream that all I could see was black, but with white dots spinning so fast in a circle that they were streaks of light. Soon afterward, I was knocked off my bike by a car, and as I rolled across the road, all I could see was exactly what I dreamed. Incidentally, when it happened the only injury I sustained was a bruise on my leg, which was where the car bumber hit me before I went flying! Strange. Eh?

I just had a weird dream in which I could fly. I kept bumping into power lines. Then when one finally zapped the shit out of me and sent me falling to the ground, all these people came to help me. I lied and blamed it on lightning, and they pointed out that there wasn't a cloud in the sky. I woke up laughing at myself.

red chamber dream

so i actually remembered one of my dreams last night, probably due to this topic. tahngarthor had gotten the japanese edition of metroid prime for wii and made a long post talking about it. i specifically remember him saying "scan dash is IN!".

i'm not holding my breath for any more dreams, though.

Embarrasing Fact: Power suit made by lowest bidder

I used to have lucid dreams quite often.
My mind apparently didn't like that. It started emulating reality much better so I couldn't tell what was real and what was a dream. Also that meant no more flying by flapping my arms. aiwebs_027

Eventually I figured out a small mental check that quickly and accurately told me if I was in a dream or not. More lucid dreams for a short bit. Including one I accidentally crashed - I didn't even know you could crash a dream. Eh?

Then my brain started emulating that check and suddenly lucid dreams mostly stopped for a while.
Finally, a few months ago I had a dream where I could see. Literally see. I wasn't just looking and observing patterns and objects and people and stuff, I was actually seeing individual colors and having to recognize shapes and such from a picture. It was fully detailed too: individual drops of rain as they were falling, the shine of a wet painted curb, individual blades and shadows of grass, the various things the rain was doing as it hit the ground or puddles...
This little lucidity war is getting silly if you ask me.

I typically remember my dreams, and they fall into only two categories: perv and non perv. Yes I'm quite fond of my over abundance of pervy dreams thank you :)

last night I had a dream that I was at an amusement park with one teacher that I don't even have anymore. But anyway he was teaching me how to be a spy so the first thing I remember is repelling down nothing with a rope that wasn't there. He then showed me some kung foo moves and then there was a big gap in my memory. Then I was in a jungle that reminded me of hawaii and my teacher told me to climb this giant hill. The hill was almost a 90 degree angle and there was a ton of long grass all over it. I started climbing the hill as though a deer would run up a hill, (my dog runs the same way up the hill) right then I realized that my dog runs the same way. Anyway I was having a ton of fun because I was going like 30mph. Just when I got to the top the hill a lip impeded my progress but I made it to the top up there was a random person who congratulated me and then I fell off. Just before hitting the bottom I grabbed some of the grass and starting going up again. This happened about five times, and though I would normally find this frustrating I was having fun. On about the sixth time falling my teacher had transformed into a bat and flew up to encourage me. On that time I got to the top and stayed up there, the kid was gone and for some strange reason I smiled meniacally and ran off into the woods.

GRRR I am so mad I cant remember my dream last night. Last night I had a dream, and at 6:30 my cat wanted to go out of my room so she was meowing and woke me up. I went back to bed and when I got up at 7:45 I COULDN'T REMEMBER IT.

The only thing I can slightly remember about it is being inside of a sea-food restaurant.

Yo.

I'd noticed something last week, and I have no idea why I'm posting it now...

Weird how I had three dreams I could remember entirely off the top of my head three mornings in a row. I say "morning" because I was apparently able to remember them since they happened right before I was to wake up. Unfortunately, I only wrote one down, and I'm not sure whether I should share it due to appropriateness...

I think it was from my Psychology teacher that I learned how to remember one's dreams; it requires effort on one's part, since they must be able to wake from REM sleep, and stay awake for 5 minutes, before one can remember what they were dreaming about vividly enough to be able to write it down.

I had a dream last night but I couldn't remember it, all I remember is that it had a castle in it. And what I mean by not remembering it was that I woke up and remembered my dream just later in the morning forgot it.

ok I can still remmeber my dream so Ill psot it here so I don't forget.

It all started at school. I was standing there at school, and for some reason I has a small sort of UI. I had a minimap in the top right, and a chat box on the bottom left of my view. I got to my bike (After school I bike home) and when I got there this kid named Josh Valez walks up and tries to take my bike. I punch him and make ihm fall to the ground, and then he gets up and has a knife on him. I get on my bike and start riding away, and he's chasing after me trying to stab me. After abotu 10 seconds of me running away I come across a yard duty, only they had a cowboy hat and glasses on. I tell the yard duty what is happening so then he goes over to Josh and grabs his arm. At that time Josh sent me a private message over my UI. Heres what I remeer seeing exactly:

"O. So That is How it Is Going to Go. O."

Then as I start typing to respond to his message I was starting to say:
"Don't worry I didn't tell him you have a knife, I just told him you were chasing me"

But as soon as I said that the yard duty looks at my IM window (He put his head behind mine, which I guess enabled him to see my UI). As soon as he looked over I closed it and started riding my bike away. Then I woke up.

Go ahead. Stare.

I tend to dream a lot, and unfortunately for me at least %95 of the time I get shot. It happens in every way possible, and by anybody. I once had a girl I liked lead me into a room with another girl I once liked... And they shot me...

Probably the oddest dream for me was I got shot by Captain Nintendo for "crimes against the United Alliance of Microsoft."

I love dreams, but they sure are wierd.

In one of my dreams like three years ago, I realized it had been a dream and took flight, apparently over an elementary school graduation practice for some reason. I think I had been in it. Then I landed next to a girl in one of my college classes and started talking to her. Then I realized that she's not actually a real person because it's only a dream. :^(
