Also, you're gay.

So when are you coming over? Huh? Huh?

[LaserBeing]

I dreamed I was making a game to troll the indie community, and it was important that I pretended to be Swedish. For some reason dessgeega was helping me sneak into university computer labs to work on it. The game itself was hideous, obviously a parody of Cactus, and it had some stupid recursive plot about a character who plays a video game about himself playing a video game about himself etc.

The part I had just finished consisted of a sequence where you had to collect "waterberries" and feed them to some kind of sausage-sized maggots, which would then vomit and also explode, and you could collect the vomit which was presumably necessary for a later puzzle. Initial hype for the game was favourable.

Also there was a crazy hobo who kept carelessly doing suicidally dangerous things and insisting that he would be fine because he had "silver boots".

These descriptions remind me of questing in WoW

After a hectic Saturday, I had a series of strange dreams in which my mother found religion, someone threw a brick through my back window, and I woke up (still in the dream) with no eyebrows. I did wake up after that (in reality), but after answering some emails I went back to bed only to have another dream in which best friend convinced me that I had not been dreaming.

[Frocto]

Last night I dreamed I was a contestant on Iron Chef, but I showed up late because I was doing some writing. Kaga was all, "Why weren't you here earlier?" and I was like, "Uhhhh, my car broke down???" and the audience laughed it up.

[LaserBeing]

Brentai's dog kept biting my nose.

I'm as confused as you are.

I had a dream about kitties.

I miss my kitty.

-n-

[Mongrel]

Speaking of kitties... last night was Weird Dreams night, with loads of quick vignettes, with things like driving semis in deep snow and doing donuts, or kidnapping copies of my grandpa from various points in the past (time travel not displayed) and watching a bunch of them all have a conversation about jobs my grandpa never worked in real life. And all the copies had afros. And then so did my dad.

During one of these, I was in a large ramshackle mansion that was literally overflowing with kitties. At one point I looked out a second story window, only to see a half-tabby, half-marmalade kitten poke it's head out of a chimneypot on an adjoining gable, with the chimneypot cover resting on his head like a little hat. The whole sequence with the cats was very cartoon/sitcom-like.

[McDohl]

I should track my family tree and imagine what it would be like to borrow now-dead family members from different points in time, just to get them all in the same room together.  As I understand it, some of them were super-awesome people, like my maternal grandfather, who worked for NASA all through the peak of the Space Race.

Really frustrating dream last night. I was at a friend's house and I wanted to share some of those funny Moonbase Alpha videos with him, but everything kept screwing up. His keyboard included a lot of oversized keys with odd symbols on them. When I typed anything into the search bar, it would come up as gibberish because of some arcane predictive text thing. And the videos didn't even show up in the search.

Of course, I woke up and I was overheated.

[Romosome]

so when I was running up the stairs to a rooftop to evacuate a building in my dream, there was this voice on a loudspeaker/intercom reminding everyone that eating babies was still illegal, and that you must wait at least one month before eating your baby.  Followed by a second male voice with a thick african accent imploring "Don't eat de land-babies!"

[R^2]

Clearly a bureaucratic error somehow sent you Friday's dream.

[Lottel]

Man, so the last three or four nights I've had horrible nightmares. Up until last night, I didn't remember any of them. I've just woken up scared, drenched in sweat, and breathing hard.

Last nights dream? I went about my normal day. In fact, it was better than normal. I was happy all day. And at the end of the dream? I found some money I forgot about and was basically on the verge of dancing.

I woke up screaming and nearly had a heart attack. Something is very, very wrong with me.

[Friday]

eating babies was still illegal,

well duh

you must wait at least one month before eating your baby.

Good advice, actually. They take some time to ripen. If I eat a week old or asian baby I'll just be hungry again in an hour.

a second male voice with a thick african accent imploring "Don't eat de land-babies!"

Again, good advice. In 1950 during the Korean War, China experimented with a new prototype landmine, the XF-4327, dubbed "land-baby" by the US troops due to the high pitched squeal/cry the mine would emit before detonation. Obviously eating one of these would be a bad idea. China, of course, gave up production of the XF-4327 when it was found that the babies they were stuffing with TNT simply could not hold enough explosives to reliably take out tank treads.

Clearly a bureaucratic error somehow sent you Friday's dream.

It gets weirder. I spent all last night dreaming I was chasing sticks in a park and tripping over myself.

[ObliviousObi]

I had a weird dream the other night, well not really. It was more or less Freddie v Jason, except I took over Freddie's role and just beat the living hell out of him in his sleep over and over again. He would "wake up" and still be in a dream. He didn't get to do anything cool.

Got the living hell out of me in the morning though because my dad was up really early, like 5am, getting ready for work and all I could think was "Oh shit, he found me!"

[Disposable Ninja]

I had a dream about a team of acrobats who were immortal. Rather that perform death-defying feats, they'd find the most elaborate, Rube Goldberg Machine-esque ways imaginable to kill themselves for their cheering audiences.

[Mongrel]

I dreamed I was some kind of weird combination of the soldier from TF2, a 40k space marine (with the that haircut), and a mighty hero in a SPACE NATION at war with some technical idiots fond of ineffective, but highly annoying gadgetry.

All I got to do was blow shit up, punch people, rage like crazy at everything, and make non-stop heroic speeches. It was like I'M SPACE CONAN, BITCHES.

Man, that was the most awesome dream in months.

[McDohl]

Did you get to rocket jump?

[Mongrel]

Yes, actually! There was some mission in the early part of the dream that looked like it was set in world 1-0 of Donkey Kong, and I was jumping around like a mofo.

The dream was really vivid overall. For instance, I specifically recall some politicians on our side discussing surrender (even though we can win no problem) and I rush in in a furious rage, make an impassioned speech and start punching enemy diplomats (who are also spying of course). the aliens try to use some kind of finicky mind control taser on me, and I just ripped out the electrodes with my bare hands and keep raging.

Goddamn, it was like every action hero you ever heard of rolled into one.
