Last week I had an dream where I actually could use my phone. In the dream I were chatting with my friend trough steam which was cool since I thought it would be glitched out or something. after 10 minutes when the dream started I got woken up by my friend by writing me an message and letting my phone make that load sound when I get notifications. He told me I was writing stuff trough steam the whole time, right when I was dreaming. I could see the chatlog and anything I was writing in the dream was also send to my friend. Is is possible that you can interact with the real world while dreaming? [editline]21st October 2012[/editline] I was creep'd out and couldn't sleep that night.

I've had this happen to me before and yeah it's about the weirdest thing next to sleep paralysis. However, I'm told there is a condition that makes people sleepwalk and act out their dreams. You might want to try inducing a lucid dream and doing something you'd definitely recognize in the real world.
[QUOTE=arfbarf;38115479]Last night, I had a dream. It was pretty strange, to say the least. Anyway, uh. I don't know why, but I was in the body of this one girl that I know. Most of the dream consisted of me walking around, and people yelling at me, saying that they're disappointed for some reason. Eventually, I decided to uh, "explore" the body I was in. I put my finger into my(?) vagina, and the feeling was unlike anything I've ever felt before. My mind went "what the fuck" so hard that I woke up.[/QUOTE] That's nothin, I had a dream where I casually took my jaw off and washed it in the sink.

Had a dream about attacking Greece in a strange alternate universe where everything was steampunkish and people still used swords etc, but it was modern. I remember a humongous explosion that was caused by a stash of fireworks blowing up like a booby trap, it was really massive.
Currently drawing a haz-mat suit that I saw in a dream last Tuesday. Will most likely upload a the picture once I'm done with it as it looks pretty rad.
Last night, I saw a really confusing dream. In it, I woke up, the clock showed it was 5:30AM. I looked up, then back on the clock and suddenly it was 30 minutes past my waking time. I rushed up, put on my clothes, walked through the front door only to come out of my wardrobe, then casually go back to bed. Then I looked at the clock, it was 5:30AM, turn my head, it's 30 minutes past yadda yadda repeat a couple of times. Then I actually woke up and was like "The fuck?"
[QUOTE=ZenX2;38131546]Or just set up a camera and record yourself?[/QUOTE] Damn son, that makes a hell of a lot more sense than whatever I suggested.

This is weird but kinda cool at the same time. Sometimes I try to fall asleep in class when there's nothing going on and there isn't going to be. When I have my eyes closed (not actually asleep) and my face is facing the desk, I eventually see the desk the exact way it would look like if I had my eyes open. Like I'll look at the desk, close my eyes, and then see everything it seems like I would see if I had my eyes open. I don't even try to do it, it just happens no matter what. I wonder what this is?
Had a dream that my penis was uncontrollably emitting an aphrodisiac. Ended up running around town with an exposed dick with a horde of women chasing me and even the most hardcore christian girls were affected by it.
I finished the drawing of the haz-mat suit. Now I just need to scan it and color it in Photoshop.
I had a dream where I was in middle school and basically relived a day in my German class (which was my favorite class). It was exactly how class used to be with the same people acting the same way. It was interesting to say the least...
I had a weird dream. I was on a rooftop,actually,the whole fucking dream looked like HL2 IRL. So, was standing on a rooftop and one gunship-like thing flew nearby making a loud,obnoxious,eerie sound. I got uneasy due to the sound and when the gunshit flew away dream ended. The weird thing is,i didn't even play HL nor HL2 when the dream happened.
I had an interesting dream. I was at one of the places I used to live at, and my mom and this lady who had some sort of magical power were there. I was setting up something (never got a good look at it) in an attempt to kill myself in exchange for the lady giving something great to the world because I felt that I had no other purpose. While I was making the last component, I started to get skeptical and asked her to show me what she had done for other people that did the same thing as me. All of a sudden my vision flooded with all of the most beautiful things I had seen for several seconds, then I was back in the house. I was moved greatly by what I had seen and decided not to go through with it in order to go out and experience the best things the world has to offer for myself. Then I woke up. I think it was a good start to the day.
So apparently [url=http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bitbangerlabs/remee-the-rem-enhancing-lucid-dreaming-mask]Remee[/url] is going to start shipping on the 26th, possibly. I'll be reviewing it once it arrives, should be a nice buff to the amount of lucids especially for a veteran.
For about nearly a year now i've been having nightmares every single night. And i do mean, every single night, at first when it started it ruined my sleep pattern but as time went on i just learnt to live with them. They range from anything, usually creepy pasta like stuff. Aswell as there always being me in the dream that i can visually see from my perspective, always with black hole eyes (Like, eyeless and just a dark hole where it is) and looking really grim. I have written about 4 books worth of nightmares, if anyone wants me to share some of my personal favourite nightmares i can otherwise pay no attention to me.
Had a dream where I was sitting in this divet in a cliff face just sitting down in a sleeping bag. Most comfortable I've ever felt. [QUOTE=MxOAgentJohnson;38166173]I have written about 4 books worth of nightmares, if anyone wants me to share some of my personal favourite nightmares i can otherwise pay no attention to me.[/QUOTE] I don't see why not, do tell.
Had a dream that I was 45 minutes late from work because of going to vote in the municipal elections.

last night i dreamt about a fat bald centaur in knight's armor, surfing on a flying orange manta ray (it was made out of oranges) and destroying cities with spaghetti beams from his mouth as this music played [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=iSifCF8k27A#t=36s"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=iSifCF8k27A#t=36s[/URL] yeah
Just woke up from a relaxing dream. I was in an auditorium with my classmates listening to I guess a behind the scenes thing on how a specific game was made. It was pretty chill, they answered a lot of questions and everything was almost completely consistent and logical for a change (except for the fact that I was a superhero somehow and could fly). I decide to stick around and try a 1 on 1 interview with one of the developers and we end up taking a walk down the parking lot, talking about game development along the way. while walking I was doing some test hops (like barely even 4 inches off the ground) to see if I could just float without ending up slowly being pulled down to the ground or ending up flying (nope). Eventually we hit the subject of pay and how much game developers make. I tell him that I'm studying to be a game developer and will hopefully get hired as one. The guy I've been talking to said, "Yeah, you don't seem to be able to afford shoes and it must be pretty hot today as you've been hopping on the blacktop the whole time!". I tell him the real reason and he asks for a demonstration of my flight capabilities. I fly up high to the roof of a nearby building, and pitch upwards until I'm flying upside down towards where he is, sitting under a tree. I right myself and then try to barrel roll and show off. Now generally in my dreams if I'm flying I can't go upside down or even more than about 45 degrees sideways without falling rapidly, and this was no exception. I end up landing on the grass on my back, get up, and resume talking with the guy, now describing my own game that I'm currently working on (it matched the description I had given my friends was back in reality). Then I woke up.
Slept for 15 hours last night because hadn't slept enough the past couple of days. Has its benefits, insane dreams! First of all, I woke up laughing in the middle of the night because of a short dream I had. Basically I had a piece of paper that I started to read, and it said "tämä on filosofinen kuvausfilosofi" in finnish. Translates roughly to "this is a philosophical depictionphilosopher" which means jack shit. It was so stupid that I burst out laughing A major plot dream afterwards. I'll put it in short sentences, because I can't be arsed to write it all out. First, fought in a huge medieval battle in order to conquer a train. We succeeded. The train led straight through the gates of hell, into the underworld. We were supposed to resque a guy stuck there The gates of hell were giant stone demon faces, whose mouths opened to let us in. The train went through several of em, and an underground rollercoaster thing. Once we reached hell, many of our group died. I then fought Satan himself (a man in his 30s named Tony) and beat him. I resqued the stuck guy and jumped on top of three dragons made out of paper, and rode back to the surface But midway, the perspectives got completely fucked up. I found myself in a city the size of a sandbox, which then became a huge city and then normal sized city. The world turned 2D, with some parts in 3D and some areas competely trippy in a way that I can't explain in words, like a tesseract/hypercube and more. I would open doors and behind them would be 3D things and 4D things and shit like that. I opened one of the doors and there was a naked arse behind them in 3D. I shut the door. I woke up afterwards, but later on I noticed I had written "checkpoint" into my dream notes, so there probably was something like that on the way up.

I had a bizarre dream. I can't remember much details of it, but essentially I was an assassin or mercenary on a mission together with a friend. He had picked our equipment, and he handed it to me when we we're near the complex we were about to infilttrate. Some kind of industrial factory building. I remember going apeshit when finding out that the equipment he brought was some retarded shit like a bow and arrow and forest camouflage. We still went through with the mission, infiltrated the building and ofcourse got pretty much discovered right away. Some chick who looked a lot like the Engineer from TF2 set up a sentrygun that suppressed us and forced us to take cover behind a low wall. The Engineer chick then walked over to us and started mocking us. Seconds after that she got shot and killed by her own sentrygun. It was hilarious in my dream, and at that point I actually woke up while laughing. Weird how things like videogame references can pop up in your dreams and seem completely normal. Even if you haven't played or even looked at that game in over a year or so.
Had a strange dream about my grandmother's incredibly old (and huge) bible. I was part of a group, but the youngest of us had died. The old ass bible had hints inside on pieces of paper, written by my grandmother, that taught us on how to summon him back from the dead. What happened then is hazy, but I found myself in a fantasy world with floating islands and such, you know the deal. The dead guy was flying around in a horse carriage that was being towed by grim reapers. They flew into a big island complex, called the "core" because it housed the technology needed for the rest of the islands to actually float in the skies. I had a big sword fight inside and was wounded in the arms, but I survived.
What is this infectious shit So I'd never ever had a nightmare in my life until Saturday. Then this girl opens up to me and tells me amongst other things that she's had traumatizing vivid night traumas every night since she was little. So I do the whole comforting thing and feel pretty empathetic, but when I went to sleep I dreamed I was chased through an empty mall by a guy with a fucked up unnatural face and weapons. Then the real scary part of the nightmare is that I wake up in the dream as this girl, but frozen in fear. That feeling is just the worst. Nothing happens, I just feel incredibly afraid. I then woke up in real life. Night after that, almost identical nightmare. My second nightmare of all time. And I'm awake now because I just had my third. Almost the same thing again. What do I do?
See if she stopped having them. If she did, your only chance is to pass it on to someone else. Either that, or you're causing it by worrying about it. You probably dreampt about it the first night because hearing about it had a large impact on your emotions, and then the other nights are caused by overreacting to the first night.
In that case fuck you, empathy.
I've had a couple of memorable dreams. Most notably, I remember a dream from close to 8 years ago, back when I lived in Germany. I had been obsessed with this old game called "Deer Avenger 4". I had played it so much, that I even had a dream about it that I remember vividly to this day. Basically, in the dream, I was playing on the "West Virginia" level, and I found this strange room under the map. Inside was the Millennium Falcon (weird, right?). I climbed down inside it, and immediately fell into a rancor pit, which held the entire crew of the Falcon. Using the various weapons at my disposal, I proceeded to blow the shit out of the rancor, and I flew the Falcon around with Han Solo, Leia, and all of those other people. Because of weird dream physics, it actually felt like I was flying! And then I woke up. :c [editline]30th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Orkel;38226125]Had a strange dream about my grandmother's incredibly old (and huge) bible.
