Re: I Dream of Duce (dream topic)

I personally always dream in color. I thought that was the norm. But as for recurring dreams go I used to have a dream where I was in the woods and im just walking. No real direction, just kind of coasting along. And then i see other people walking. But they are staring at me. The crowd just gets larger and larger. This was quite creepy for me and I felt that these people were following me, so I begin running. And then they began running. And no matter how hard I try I couldnt outrun them. And it always ended with them catching me and pulling me to the ground. That is usually where the dream would cut off and Id wake up paranoid AF.

I'm also curious how many people know if they dream in color or not?


Is dreaming in color rare or odd?

As far as I know, I almost always dream in color..

I'm the same, didn't know the dreaming in colour wasn't the norm. I always dream in colour. The only times I haven't it's because that particular part of the dream always switched to monochrome. I'll write some up when I get in after work.

It's probably because we all play video games. It isn't the norm, but I remember reading something a few years ago that gamers consistently dream in color.

I suppose that's true. Some of the earliest dreams/nightmares I had as a kid were in color, and I can recall that since I was born there was an NES in the house that my older sibling played. I was entranced by that device. But that's a topic for another thread.

I have so many dreams I've recorded through the years, but for me there will always be the "epic dream" that I had in the winter of '07. It was long before I even started recording dreams, but I can recite that one from memory. Perhaps one day I'll share it in all of its cough suppressant driven madness.

But for this post, I'll bring up a different one. I had a dream I was a ghost. Now the funny thing about it was that I pretty much still interacted with people as normal. I could even ride in terrestrial vehicles. Not sure about gaming and the tangibility of a controller, but the greatest problem was overseas travel. Turns out you just fall out of the plane and into the depths of the ocean floor.

I think I mostly dream in colour too but most stuff is just random nonsense i think WTF to myself after waking up and then I mostly forget like 99% of the dream during my morning routine.

But I can recall some Nightmares .
1: this might be a simple one but it happened many years back, I recall running through a forest on to a cliff and I didn't stop and as soon as i run past the cliff and was about to fall the vision changed for a second so I could see myself from far below (means it was a deep fall) and then I woke up breathing heavily and full with adrenaline.

maybe I get myself to post the second one.

I have weird dreams.

Had one the other night were we were driving along a forest mountain road with steep descents. Of course we end up going over the side rolling over about 6-7 times and I think most people would wake up at this point. Not me, I get to see myself in 3rd person all messed up but apparently not badly enough as I was able to walk away. Stuff like this is usually related to a major change in life you're worried about that could come to a "collision" such as relationships or career changes which I'm considering. So it doesn't worry me.

Great, now you guys have me remembering dreams for some reason.

Last night I had a dream where I was sitting with a large crowd of people at some kind of outdoor cafe at night. We were all looking around and up at the sky. There was a large cloud overhead and as it moved to the side you could see other planets. They were massive, Mars was the closest and largest visually. It was a bright swirling red with hundreds of glowing active volcanoes. It looked about 4 times larger than the moon normally would. Suddenly a massive volcano on Mars erupted sending lava out into space like a solar flare. It was blinding and accompanied by a huge boom. Afterwards Mars began to dim and get smaller and everyone began clapping and cheering and I shouted "WOOO UNIVERSE, ALRIGHT SOLAR SYSTEM!" Then I woke up.

Alright, this one isn't the epic that I brought up earlier, but its definitely one that I won't forget and don't even need to go back to the logbook for.

This one is about two detectives, a woman and a man pursuing someone who's placed themselves into a sort of fallout manor. It extends to the depths of the earth. Eventually, our protagonists finally corner the culprit only to discover that during this investigation, the world is facing annihilation through a massive windstorm that's basically eroding the surface of the earth.

At the very end, the view shifts to the storm that wearing away at the earth and layer by layer of this underground tower in a dusty mess until it simply destroys the last layer of the tower, where everyone was situated in that final act.

Dreamt that I was at a target. Helped someone find the freshest doughnuts. Then we got into a conversation about coffee shop service and tipping.

He then griped about his service. We then parted ways. To which I got back to my awkwardly parked red limousine and I drove off with my rather cold coffee.

Did I meet Cinco?

Oh man, I Pineappling love dreams! Makes sleeping so much more enjoyable, which is good since we spend a good third of our lives sleeping. It's also so interesting that we know so little about dreams

I've had lucid dreams a handful of times, to varying extents. In some I'm just observing through my own eyes with no control (like watching a narrative from a 1st person view), and in others I can go and cause mayhem as I see fit. Just the other day I had a lucid dream, but in the dream I had to piss so badly that I couldn't enjoy it. Decided that the rational thing to do was to wake myself up so I wouldn't piss the bed. Woke myself up, and didn't even remotely have to pee. I felt so cheated :(
If you're interested in lucid dreaming, check out www.dreamviews.com, whole forum thingie dedicated to the topic.

The main reason I love dreaming is that they're always wacky as Pineapple. Had a dream once where I was out looking for moose (meese? mooses?), but couldn't find any. I found, however, a badger with moose antlers that were ducttaped to it's head. Asked a mate if that counted as a moose, but sadly it didn't.
Also recently had a dream in which my uncle completely obliterated me in a rap battle. I'm still somewhat traumatized from that one, his rhymes and insults were on point!
