Didn't we have a Dream thread?

[Angrist]

Can't find it. Where did half of the topics go!?


Anyway I was helping with a festival in a forest. Some Japanese were putting up some wire to keep the wild boars out... 1 of them was supposed to go into the forest to see where the boars were, but the guy was too scared.
So me and a friend thought that would be fun (we both studied nature management, so we're pros right?).
We found some boars within 10 minutes. While we were watching them, suddenly 2 bears appeared... and we're not even supposed to have any bears in the Netherlands. The bears didn't see us, but just to be sure we ran like crazy, even jumping into a lake to take a shortcut.

When I woke up I realized I should have taken pictures before running away.

I think we had two of them. The search function doesn't go back very far anymore but they're still there...trapped.

Wouldn't dream cameras be amazing? Always wanted to be able to record my dreams for later viewing.

I used to be very diligent about writing down my dreams. Hardly did any this year. Here are the last couple:

There's a giant Wonka-esque building-sized candy machine across the street that creates slushies. I keep ramping up the size of production until it creates enough to cover a large area of land like snow. There's another machine to make candy whirlwinds. I take it too far and it creatures a giant twister which touches down and destroys a couple of blocks killing hundreds.

Me and a couple others flee into my house. A group of Magneto girls are coming to killl us. I hide in the upstairs bathroom in the tub. An injured Bomb Queen (the villain from the last comic I drew) flies through the window. I try to put on one of her gauntlets on my left arm as one of the Magneto girls bursts through the door. She chastises me about the Wasp drawing I did and she's about to kill me when I get the gauntlet to work and shoot out a beam of energy. Bomb Queen regains consciousness and helps too. Somehow we defeat a bunch of them. Then a wizard transports me and another guy to a Lord of the Rings type land and we have to fend for ourselves there. We fight many types of creatures and eventually befriend a dragon-dog thingy and he flies us back to the real world.

At school (an amalgam of them) in the auditorium. They're giving out lantern rings. They toss them up and they fly around allowing them to choose their owners for themselves. I had orange and yellow ones almost slide onto my fingers a couple times but I wanted to be sure so only accepting one when it got on my hand perfectly. I got a yellow ring. I found I could make small constructs by picturing something scary I wanted to create. I then also get an orange ring. Found that one harder to use. Got some sparks by trying to create the want of a girl but that's it. Later in a classroom we're testing out the rings. I try to fly but can barely hover. I suggest that the green lanterns try it since seemed to be more of a willpower type power and I was right. They flew much easier.

Yes, I have very nerdy dreams.

And the dream I had last night involved a complicated game of baseball with gorillas and robots. All I remember. Wish I wrote that one down.

Tonight me, my brother and a friend (the 3 of us went to Norway last summer) were being blackmailed by some unknown criminal. What we had to do was kidnap a big group of students (I knew some of these kids). We had to pretent do be mean and violent criminals and we had to threaten to kill them if they tried anything funny.
We took all their cameras, phones etc., which we kept in a big bag. At one point the bag gets stolen, presumably by the guy who was blackmailing us. Then some new people started to hunt us down, and the students started to realise we weren't the true bad guys. Suddenly on the run, we tried to help these kids as good as possible. I remember diving into a canal (while jumping over a small boat) to recover a bag with equipment. What followed was a pretty cool chase through a huge garage, old buildings and through doors with rusty locks.
Oh the friend of me and my brother turned out to be a traitor, possibly the one who blackmailed us to start with.

A dream thread within a dream thread... trapped in computer limbo?

Tonight I dreamed I found toy dinosaurs. AGAIN. It's one of those dreams that just keeps coming back...
When I was a kid I used to love those Jurassic Park toys. And I still have them, lots of them. And when I see them cheap, I buy new ones.
A few times a year I dream I find a lot of new dinosaurs that I don't have yet... Very cheap too. And the stupid thing: I NEVER BUY THEM! What kind of lunatic would dream about his desires and then not fulfill them??

Had a dream a couple days ago where Peggy from Mad Men was flying around in the War Machine suit unbeknownst to Don Draper Iron Man.
