Now I just need to wake up at the precipice of my lucid dream to remain in a half-awake state so that my dream powers carry over into real life.

(Oh yeah, and you are dreaming right now. What you perceive as dreams are just meta-dreams. Dreams inside those meta-dreams threaten to cause an infinite loop. If your meta-dream self is getting drowsy, wake up to the regular dream so you don't break anything.)

Not only is it not actually advertising anything, it's just copy/pasting word salads about gold, runescape, oil, yuan, and handbags.  It's like a transporter accident combined all the spambots into one shambling mass of online sales.

Speaking of has anybody ever had a dream where they discover they are dreaming, wake themselves up, only to find themselves in another dream? I had this once, waking myself up like 4-5 times till I finally woke myself up to reality.

I've had that. I walked out of my bedroom, made myself breakfast and then woke up for real.

Most of the time when someone is described as politically correct they are simply correct.

Lucid dreaming means being aware that you are dreaming, right?
I had one of those dreams that seems like you were there for you entire life.
My face was like a mask and I had to keep adjusting it so it wouldn't slip and I would run into anything. The part I most remember was getting out of my mom's car and adjusting my face and then thinking "Crap! I think I am dreaming!" I then I kept trying to force my real eyes open. My vision was blurry that day. It's also weird waking up from those types of dreams (I mean lucid and life[or whatever you call 'em]).

 Anybody ever unintentionally lift a limb like an arm while dreaming, the action of which seems a million miles away and wakes you up in the middle of the night?

 It's a bastard.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

Back when i still remembered my dreams, I used to never could get my eyes open to see. And if I was moving, it felt like I was trying to move through molasses...

I do occasionally jerk and wake myself up, but only if I'm dozing in a chair or something, never in bed. Well, I suppose I might still jerk, but I don't actually wake myself up in bed... 's usually a leg that jerks.

I think that's called a hypnic jerk or something. It happens when you lose focus for a second and when your are about to fall asleep. I get them, too.

Has anyone else ever slept with the TV on, and had their dreams (with me its only the END of the dream, right when I'm about to wake up) influenced by what's playing on it?

It is because of chemicals your brain releases to paralyze you in your sleep

Those who don't produce enough of these chemicals then to sleepwalk. (Ps. It isn't harmful to wake a sleepwalker)

Lucid Sleep paralysis is an interesting and different experience, I actually quite enjoy it. Then again you tend to loose feeling of heat during it so its a good way to relax in the summer.

Yep, though I usuall only fall asleep near the TV if I'm sick. So I'm dozing in and out and at least a little feverish. IIRC it did used to happen with my alarm clock radio, now I always use the buzzer.

Alarm clocks ruin dreams!  They zip you out of the dream and you can't remember squat!  You have to wake up gradually to get it right.
