They probably have their ad systems designed by interns or students as part of their web design assignment work, it's not like anyone's going to see it anyway.
Anyway, my mild sad: Just that typical moment where you have a really nice dream and forget just about the entire thing immediately upon waking up. There was actually even a song in it, that I listened to a couple of times towards the end of the dream, then realised with shock and sadness as I was waking up
"It's not actually a real song!" Yes, brain, it's not a real song and you'll never be able to listen to it... especially since you have now forgotten what it sounded like.
Oddly enough, I can remember that music aspect of the forgotten dream thing happening to me in the past. Once I even quickly wrote down a vague description of the song, in the hopes that one day I would unearth my hidden musical abilities and recreate it in the real world. Perhaps I do have some composing skills, what with my subconscious tormenting me with such beautiful songs- although of course it's always possible that they're just a mashup of various songs I've heard in the past, but isn't that basically what music is?
Anyway, the music wasn't even the main thing. Just, forgetting a really nice dream where I'd become attached to the characters.
There was actually a moment later in the dream where a series of videos, probably LPs, that I'd been greatly enjoying came to an emotional end, leaving me wanting more. This made me realise how similar the "lost dream" feeling is to the "finished a great book/movie/series" feeling- but of course, the former has the added impact of never being able to go back and re-read or re-watch it, never being able to fill the gaps in recollection. It's gone for good.
Well, yeah, that's pretty much it. I'll stop rambling now and go have a coffee.
Tl;dr: Forgot a dream and I'm upset about it.
