Keep those coming if you want. I'm sure they'll come in handy in the future. For now, it appears that (oddly enough) Super Meat Boy is keeping the kid occupied for an hour every day.

Poor kid. Only one hour of video games a day. The Horror!

What are the common themes and/or repeating patterns in your dreams?

[Vector]

I have a lot of dreams about gravity slowly increasing til I can't move.

[None]

Entering a house or place I know with certainty that nobody is in, looking for someone with the certain knowledge that I won't find anyone, given the certain knowledge that nobody is there, and then finding someone anyways. No specific someone, mind.

Watched too many ghost hunting shows in my youth, I suppose. It's funny now, since my folks and my brother go ghost hunting occasionally as a hobby.

[Il Palazzo]

I used to have a few regular types of dreams.

There was one where I would have my own legs get in the way while walking/running, so I would just hop around in ungainly frustration.
Another one was going super fast along the ground by lying prone on some sort of sleigh and propelling myself with a push of hands (pretty sure its a dream-logic rendering of diving in the pool).
The third used to be my version of flying. I'd fly, or rather float, by inhaling lots of air. That would give me just about positive buoyancy. So I'd make these huge jumps, and sometimes float around like some sort of weird blimp. I'd always be surprised nobody else has figured this out.

Come to think of it, I can see how all three can be from my brain being confused about the concept of swimming. I used to swim a lot.

What are the common themes and/or repeating patterns in your dreams?

-That one dream where my teeth keeps falling out
-Waking up in some non-Euclidean educational setting where either 1: I don't know my schedule or 2: have to take a final in some absurd class that I didn't study for (like 3D submarine modeling or Egyptology)

-That one dream where my teeth keeps falling out

Oh hey, I used to get that too.

Supposedly to do with stress, although I'm not sure about that one. I don't hold much stock in people saying if you dream of X, then Y.

What are the common themes and/or repeating patterns in your dreams?

The only one I've noticed is that the ones I remember when I wake up tend to be pretty damn awesome. They're all over the place in terms of content and style, otherwise. Sometimes they're animated, even. They don't really do repeats, but sometimes they'll reference old dreams, or pick up where one left off. I've had multi-episode dream sequences spread over a period of time before, though I've forgotten any details by this point.

... it's one of the precious few bits of my biology I don't basically actively hate, really -- dream brain has just about always had my back, even the nightmare adjacent stuff trends impressive.

What are the common themes and/or repeating patterns in your dreams?

Always different stuff going on and always bizarre as hell.

[Kagus]

What are the common themes and/or repeating patterns in your dreams?

Arguing with my parents and then waking up feeling like shit.


Those are pretty much the only dreams where I'm actually in 1st person, interestingly... Most of the time I'm looking at myself in 3rd person, or "I" simply don't exist within the dream.

[scriver]

If I fall asleep in a place or position where I can't stir properly (like a sofa or a hammock, I often end up dreaming that I'm trying to walk away from a large group of people who are constantly clinging to me, and I always get angry and frustrated and stressed out. Very often the people that take shape are people from school who I didn't like and who looked down on me.

It also often gives me sleep paralysis aware dreaming, and anxiety/nightmares that comes with that (I don't consider the above cling-dreams to be nightmares because while thoroughly unpleasant they don't scare me, they just anxiete (that's a verb) and frustrate me).

When I get sleep paralysisy dreams I often dream that I wake up and get out of bed and do morning stuff, only to realise that I am still asleep and can't move, revert back to where I'm sleeping, and clamour against not being able to move, only to start dreaming that I can move again and get up and go about my business before I realise that I'm still sleeping and can't move again, repeatedly, over and over. This mostly happens during the morning hours or if I fall asleep during the day.

Oh, and yeah. Dreams of my parents and particularly my brother unfairly condescending towards me. Always makes me wake up depressed.

[Great Order]

Weird question, are there any drinks that taste like Lemsip without being Lemsip?

See, I like the taste, but I can't imagine having paracetamol and phenylepherine on a daily basis would be healthy for your liver in the long run.

[Frumple]

Uh, probably? Quick look suggests you could probably massage some sort of tea into tasting like it. There's apparently multiple flavors of that whatever it is, so you'd take whatever you like in particular and just... figure out the flavor ingredients and add it to something else, or find some drink that uses them. Innit complicated.
