C'mon, it's poetic and shit, people.

[jay-ell]

Wow, so it's a comedy then? 

[dejavroom]

Well, I think that the scene with the hand decapitated in a lumber factory is hilarious...

That is one freaky-ass hand.

I do love stories with a happy ending though.

Imagine really meeting people in a dream though and then meeting them in real life, it would be all such as "Huh, it's weird to see you without that shirt made out of fingerpaintings that hung on the wall of my grandmother's old house."

*sigh*, yes, I meant "severed". Just sometimes I should check a coupla language sites before hitting "post". As for the dreams, the book is full of descriptions of lucid dreams experiences (I hope they're not boring, I tried to make them exciting in a Calvin-esque way). Anyone here has had one of them?

(because they're *amazing*)

Does anyone have Nabu's phone number? Can you call him and  tell him I miss him in a non-homosexual way?

I had one once, but I only became lucid when I realized the dream was turning into a nightmare, so all I did was will myself awake.  I've also had a false awakening from a non-lucid dream before, which was pretty cool.

On a somewhat related note, the scariest dream I ever had as a kid involved lying in bed talking to my dad, who was sitting on the foot of the bed.  I had no idea I was in a dream until I woke up very suddenly, lying in the exact same position and with everything the same as in the dream, except that my dad wasn't there and everything was dark.  You can imagine how much I freaked out.

Also strange was the time I dreamt that the government had built a Death Star in orbit around the sun, and then decided to fire the superlaser because of something that had happened in Iraq.  I spent the entire dream trying to find my way out of a parking garage while I counted down the seconds until the world would end.  I woke up thinking, "Whew!  It was only a dream!  They'd never actually use the Death Star."  It was literally hours before I remembered that the Death Star didn't even exist.

I once had a semi-lucid dream that was basically nothing but a series of false awakenings: I would wake up, say "huh, that was freaky," and go about my business, only to find that things around me were still strange. This repeated four or five times before I finally woke up, and even reality didn't seem right for about fifteen minutes afterwards.

There was a Calvin and Hobbes strip that pretty much outlined a similar experience I had one morning (high school).  I woke up, did all the usual stuff - went to school, sat through classes, went to practice and worked like hell, sat down to do some homework and just could not figure out this math problem.  I stared at it, puzzled over it, thought I was getting it...and my alarm went off, waking me for the day I had just finished dreaming.  That was so goddamn frustrating.

If my mom was reading this, she's say that she knew it was a dream when I started talking about sitting down to do my homework.  My mom has a smart mouth that way.
