@asdf I dunno. Are you a Norfolk Southern ES44AC?

@Magus You know. Like indoors. Or a swimming pool. Or on an airplane.

@Weng GroundLocomon will getcha, as long as you don't leave the ground.

In the last dream that I can remember, lucid me cock-blocked dreaming me by waking me up right when it was getting good, because lucid me knew I was dreaming and didn't want to make a mess in the bed. Then I couldn't get back to the dream.
Lucid-me's done that once or twice, too. Lucid-me is a dick like that.

Yeah, that was weird for me. I was like, "Holy crap I can't finish right now! But the situation demands it! Arghghg!!"
Of course, that doesn't consider the times when the dream makes it impossible to accomplish the act at all....

My dreams are usually silent, also I tend to die in them 90% of the time. I apparently lucid dream.
I never die in my dreams. I often come close to it but I always wake up before it actually happens.

I had a dream that someone's birthday party was at my house and they hired a caterer that managed to break every appliance they touched. Also I went to my bedroom and my Android smartphone had finished updating to Windows 10.
A few nights ago I had a dream that my basement flooded and my computer was in the stairwell even though there's a wall between there and the monitor (which was still working). Also there were some centipedes the size of a large snake just kind of sitting there.
Man are you a geek!
You should dream about sex more!

I died once in my dreams when I was six. I was being chased across an urban area of Phoenix, suspiciously deserted, by a pack of wolves. I was running along rooftops with pipes and vents and shit like that all over the place. All of it was painted a horrible generic shade of tan. So 6-year-old me is somehow like doing parkour moves and shit to escape these wolves, but then I trip and fall into an alleyway and the wolves caught me and ate me, then when I died I opened my eyes again as one of the wolves, and spent a while in my dream running around with the pack of wolves, as one of them. It was a terrifying dream originally, but was kind of cool after that.

It's a good thing you weren't in the Matrix, then.

I usually never remember my dreams, but I have died in some of the ones I do remember. Strangely it never seems to be a permanent affair.

In the rare cases when I awake from a dream, or can remember it when I wake up, it fades rapidly within the next ten minutes and is gone. I'm okay with this, I get the impression those rare dreams are weird.

Not sure, my train is poorly drawn:

@Tsaukpaetra Also blocked. Still can't listen to the song to check whether I know it.

@Tsaukpaetra It works! 🎉

Weirdly enough, last night I dreamed about a talkative, friendly guy who looked like guts from berserk discussing whether or not he or this wolf to humanoid werewolf nearby would win in a fight.

That's almost every erotic dream I've had my whole life. :( I don't think there was any "lucid me" involved, though; I just woke up for some reason.
OTOH, there was a time when I was having frequent frightening dreams, and I got to where I could realize I was having an unpleasant dream and wake myself up, calm down and go back to sleep without resuming the bad dream.

I think I've only lucid dreamed (why do I want to spell the past tense dreamt) no more than 5 - 6 times. Mostly because it was a bad dream I wanted to get out of.
-
@HardwareGeek in my case it was very literally how I said it: lucid me was partially awake, figured out what was going on, and woke me up. I distinctly remember that thought preceding me waking the rest of the way up.
I've heard that you remember dreams better if you wake up in the middle of them, possibly even that you only remember those dreams. So that might have something to do with it.
-
@Magus What's particularly weird is, the guy was arrogant and talkative, thereby the opposite of Guts. And I wasn't even there, I was just hearing him talk to someone else at a table, who I never saw. Possibly in a bar? And the wolf was nearby, it was the other guy's pet or something. I feel like the place had a medium-sized crowd, that it was evening, and that this was a medieval-ish bar, not very clean.
-
Most of my dreams are lucid. Not full-on lucid where I can control everything and do whatever I want (that never happens), but I am almost always aware on some level that it's just a dream and not reality.
-
dreamed (why do I want to spell the past tense dreamt)
Because that's a legitimate way to spell it? And far more awesome sounding?
-
Vision is pretty weak. Most times I am borderline blind in my dreams.
I frequently dream that I am too tired to keep my eyes open. In the dream. Also too tired to do anything really.
Are you sure that you're dreaming and not just, you know, falling asleep?
-
Is lucid dreaming even distinguishable from dreaming about lucid dreaming?
IMW it is not.
-
I've had lots of dreams where I'm some sort of police / detective hunting someone down. Or I'm the one being hunted. Those are typically pretty violent dreams.
Probably about 10-15 years ago I became much more competent in dreams. Like, I could run without feeling like I was in molasses or sometimes could fly on purpose...where I actually wanted to go. Guns would actually fire when I pulled the trigger, etc.

There was a red squiggly underneath and I searched google which led me to the definition of dream which used dreamed for past tense in a sentence.**

I agree.
**Double checking...apparently I missed this:

At uni, one of my friends told me that he almost always lucid dreams, and really likes that because he can just suddenly be like, "Oh sweet, I'm in a dream! Time to flyyy!" and fly off.

Status: dream recovery failed. Recovery notes:
Detected 2+ scenarios. Scenario -1: walking with friends to fast food restaurant, limping was too slow so I willed myself to float, which instigated an argument and then a race. Scenario -2: walking through a building remarkably similar to the new offices.
No further information was recovered.

Unlike my ex-wife. She would dream that I had done something that made her angry, and she wouldn't realize it had been a dream even after she was awake. I'd have to convince her that she had been dreaming and that I hadn't actually done whatever it was she had dreamed. Even when it was obvious that it was the middle of the night, she had just woken up, and we were in bed together, not whatever situation she had been dreaming about, it required at least a little convincing. And even then, I think she still sometimes clung to a lingering belief that I had done whatever it was — not just then, maybe, but at some time. Vivid dreams, but definitely not lucid.

I'd love to know how you managed to do that. That feeling is so frustrating, and it makes for unrestful sleep.

I'm not that bad, I know he didn't do what I dreamt but the emotion is often still there and that still needs to be worked on.
I had a horrible dream that I dropped my daughter from some building that had all these balcony walkways with gaps. I needed a long time to calm down after that. Same thing when I dreamt my husband died.
So I've woken up grief-stricken, angry, and scared (not generally at the same time).

I...don't know. I suspect that I became a more lucid dreamer. Hmm...thinking about it, it may have happened after I got my CPAP.

I get this from my wife. She has recurring dreams where I try to get a divorce or something. Which is totally fucking insane. I could never afford something like that.

LOL...yeah, my husband couldn't afford to divorce me either.
When I wake up angry, it usually is because something bad is happening and I'm yelling to get his attention (because I or the kids need help) and he doesn't hear me (nor does anyone else). It is a very helpless feeling.

Hah! My ex would get mad if I didn't just know intuitively that she needed help; she shouldn't need to ask.

@HardwareGeek I've mostly trained my wife to use her words.

That's a recipe for unhappiness (for both of you).
Though, I think after 17 years my husband should know that the answer to,
Do you have any thoughts for dinner?
is
No, just feed me.
We sometimes finish each other's jokes.
