[QUOTE=Communist Cake;20052459]Do they have your testicles too?[/QUOTE] All 17 of em. Oh I think it is 18 now.
I guess they're just imaginary, I mean it would be kind of weird if you had a dream and there was absolutely no one.
[QUOTE=TheServer;20052674][img]http://www.thisman.org/thisman.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] Oh god it's fucking Sylar again!
I honestly have no idea who the people in my dreams are. 99.9% of them I've never seen or met before.
I remember once there was this bright blue-haired girl, it was just a static picture that I saw. Recently I saw seeing these guys who were in dark overcoats and had vulture-like skulls for heads, and weird looking black hats.
[QUOTE=lieutenant_beard;20052381]There's also a certain part of our brain that memorizes just faces. If that part is fucked then you can't tell the difference between faces. Would be cool to see what that's like.[/QUOTE] Are you sure? That actually doesn't sound very cool.
My girlfriend and a bunch of random redheads.
[QUOTE=Master117;20052409]I'm not so much as asking [I]who[/I] are in your dreams, but what they are. How do they work? Are they alive? What happens to them when you awake?[/QUOTE] People in your dreams are illusions created by your subconscious. [QUOTE=Master117;20052505]There has to be more to it than that though. How does the brain assign a mind of it's own to each individual? The minds are far too intricate to just create on a whim, and there are a lot of them too. As for thinking too hard, well that's a good thing. Deep thought unlocks new doors.[/QUOTE] Oh, just like the way your brain assigns a mind of it's own to each drawer and soda bottle in your dreams, right? :downs: [QUOTE=lieutenant_beard;20052359]We only use like 10% of our brains or something. I like to think that like since God made us in his image, if we unlocked the other 90% of our brain, then we'd have fucking telekinetic powers and shit, and be kinda God-like, in a way.[/QUOTE] Don't speak out of your ass, honey, shit tends to get on your words when you do it.

The people in my dreams never have faces. (except main partakers in it.) :frown: just really blurry areas where faces are supposed to be.
My dreams range from modern day life with a twist to flat out universe shattering epics (my favorites), I'm a pretty lucid dreamers, to the point I can dis-engage myself from the lucidness, as in I can tell my brain that I'm un-aware I'm in a dream and release control, while still having the ability to re-awaken the ability to control it at any time, despite myself not knowing I'm dreaming anymore. It's complicated. 99% of my dreams are lengthy sob's too, the shorter ones generally lasting a few days, the longer ones going on for months+. It's very weird because time doesn't move forward during the dream, it's real-time, yet I've only been sleeping for a few hours. Considering the kind of dreams I have, sometimes I wish I could just stay asleep forever. It's nice though, I haven't had a nightmare since I was about 5, anytime I do, I'm fully aware I'm in control, though sometimes I release it for the fun of it. My dreams are my ultimate playground. This is why I truly cannot wait for the technology to record your dreams perfectly. Then I could examine each one, but maybe that's not a good idea, I already don't want to wake up when I dream, actually seeing what I'm dreaming about (because I do forget some of the details on the long ones) might upset me.
I think the people in my dreams are embodiments of different facets of my emotion and personality. Or just different aspects of my instinct and logic. It also could be my mind's representations of me from different periods of my life. Or personifications of the bonds I have with family and friends. Or living snippets of my memory. But I like to think of the people in my dreams as a conglomeration of all those things.
I have a recurring character in my dreams who, in the dreams, is my girlfriend. I like to think she exists somewhere :saddowns: I'm pretty sure she's an embodyment of the imaginary friend I had when I was little though.
Well I had a bunch of japanese chicks in my house that wouldn't leave and didn't know any english. Very weird dream.

[QUOTE=Master117;20052409]I'm not so much as asking [I]who[/I] are in your dreams, but what they are. How do they work? Are they alive? What happens to them when you awake?[/QUOTE] Sometimes they're just standing around, or they're doing something in the background. Sometimes they're holding me and I don't know why.
If I were capture my dreams and thoughts and put them on a video they would just be a whole bunch of abstract shapes and weird shit that doesn't make sense, I think it might be a strange disorder. Like they're all abstract shapes but I somehow know what the resemble. Like the vulture guys. If I were to really think about it it would just be some weird shapes and a pickaxe made out of bone with a hat on a black cloak's head. [editline]03:52AM[/editline] Someone tell me what's wrong with me :saddowns:
I barely dream anymore, And if I do its about school... :geno:
I have dreams that I struggle in life and have a shitty job and no money. Then I wake up next to a hot girl, and realize I'm fucking rich and breakfast is made already. Fuckin' annoying
They are the thousands of people you have inadvertently killed through out your lifetime due to the many poor decisions you have made without realizing it.

[QUOTE=theguydude;20053176]:suicide: What. Actually almost like that, 'cept the heads are shaped a bit like pick-axes.[/QUOTE] Have you played Assassin's Creed 2? The doctors wear outfits like the one you're describing, maybe your dream got it from there.

My dreams are never that coherent. Just blurs of colours, words and sounds. They're quite terrifying actually.
This may sound weird, but I've only ever seen one person in my dreams, and it recurs almost every night. I can never make out her face, but it's a girl and whenever I wake up after one of those dreams, I always feel empty inside, like its someone I wish I could love but just can't because she doesn't exist.
Figments of my imagination.
Most of the people in my dreams are either Gordon Freeman (i have a man crush on him go fuck yourself) or my girlfriend, alexa.
