      Very funny jokes in dreams - ????

      I sometimes wake up laughing, because a person in my dream told me a joke.
      The joke is so funny, it actually wakes me up, but after a few mins, I realise the joke was not funny at all.

      This ever happened to anyone else ?

      That happened to me one time, I was told something that made me laugh myself awake, but when I woke up I couldn't even remember what
      it was that was said.
      I do remember a dream I had years ago that still makes me laugh; I was on a stage in a desert and the sun was beating down. I was behind
      a podium talking into a microphone to a small audience of about 20 people in turbans and those robe things, some higher up people in turbans
      are standing to the left and right of me, then I say into the microphone with a strong voice and tone, "FREE THE CAMELS!!", and then the audience
      stands up and claps and cheers and celebrates while I stand there behind the podium with my arms crossed, my chest puffed out in pride, and a
      proud look on my face looking off into the distance whilst the wind blowing through my hair...seriously, what da heck

      I only remember one joke from my dreams when i was emptying the dishwasher with my grandpa.
      Grandpa: "Want to hear a joke?"
      Me: "...."
      Grandpa: " Why are the fishes up at night? Because they are nordic walking."
      Me and grandpa: " Ahhahahaha "
      My brother: "-____-"

      i get this a lot, although i tend not to remember the jokes after waking. i had a dream a few weeks ago where i had a spiritual epiphany over the phrase "a bug in a dress"... the dreaming mind makes connections between everything (much like the schizophrenic mind or the mind under the influence of certain drugs -- lsd and marijuana come immediately to mind) and nonsensical things can thus become intensely funny or intensely significant. (in my dream i was convinced that "a bug in a dress" was a perfect and concise description of all facets of my being and was also very witty, because a bug in a dress is an unparalleled comic image.) these distortions of our senses of discrimination are quite interesting

      I asked a DC to tell me a joke once. They said if you mix beef ramen and yogurt you can make pee!

      this happened recently to me. me and my friends were in a restaurant eating tomato soup, and one of my friends made an impression of a baby on the corner of a restaurant and how much he wanted tomato soup. he pronounced it in a weird way, though. like "toma-té soop" and it sounded really weird but it was really funny.

      I never woke up laughing about a joke in a dream, but I've had dreams where I joked or someone joked in my dream and I'd wake up thinking about it.

      Yes, many times it happens with me when I wake up laughing, but soon after waking up I forgot what the dream was. There are so many meaning of laughing in a dream depends on what we have seen. In your case, sorry to say but laughing in dream caused by a joke denotes dishonesty in real life.

      Yeah, I've noticed that happening to me lately, occasionally. It's rare that I find something funny in a dream at all, but when I do, it's super funny, funnier than anything could be in real life, yet I wake up and realize it wasn't funny at all. My sense of humor is skewed somehow.

      A few weeks ago someone in a dream yelled "LEEEEROOY JENKINS!" like in that popular WoW video. It was the funniest thing ever. When I woke up, it didn't seem that funny.

      Just last night I had one. I don't remember exactly what it was, but it involved some army guy speaking to his commander like "Yes sir, I will protect my country and serve..." before he went into battle. I believe I woke up directly from this dream. While I was waking up, for the first few seconds of being awake, it still seemed funny. I couldn't wait to write it in my DJ and tell people because I could hardly believe my mind could come up with something so funny. But the longer I thought about it, the more I realized it wasn't funny at all.

      I think it was funny due to the specific way I was thinking about it in the dream. It was really complicated, perhaps too complicated for me to grasp in real life, and that's why it was so funny. It was just so funny that the army guy was being so stupid and naive and was willing to kill for his country. But at the same time I knew he realized how stupid he was, that he was actually mocking his commander, and imitating one of those stupid nationalists perfectly. Yet he know he really needed to go to battle, so he did it, half telling the truth.... that's my attempt at trying to explain why it was funny in the dream. But even that doesn't seem to justify how funny I found it...

      I'm a stand-up comedian and i have performed new material created on the spot in some of my dreams. The performance was great, i laughed, all the crowd laughed. When i woke up, i remembered the joke, and was awful. But in the dream i was so amused.
      But there was one bit, with physical comedy, i made in the dream that i still think it's hilarious. I have to try in real life.

      Post Explanation and interpretation of each dream

      If anyone is interested, I have tried to interpret each dream, which should show how humour works in dreams. I could of course be wrong at any point.

      TiredPhil
      This can be that you find something funny in life, but of course when you wake, the language of dreams goes to sleep - you are no longer in the world of symbols, and are thinking literally, so no longer get the joke.
      Not that it means you no longer think it is funny.


      Narwhal
      In the desert in yourself or some experience, where nothing grows, it's harsh, and maybe the light and warmth that life should be is now beating down on you.
      you announce to bring on a part of you that can deal with it, and survive in these harsh conditions.
      'FREE THE CAMELS' would be a great laugh in such a situation.
      But the rest of you stands up and applauds your move, cheering you on.
      And you are proud of it, looking ahead to what's coming, with the movement of life blowing through your thoughts, now more able to deal with it.


      Mikasan527
      Emptying the dishwasher with your grandpa might mean taking out or seeing what is cleansed in yourself after nourishment or satisfaction. Grandpa can be the more knowing part of you.
      Grandpa: "Want to hear what's funny?... Why do you have ideas or more aware ideas in the dark times?'
      Grandpa: "Because they are walking in the cold." or maybe "Because you feel like a fish out of water and cold."
      And it's funny to you, probably not literally because fish don't normally walk, but figuratively, or in the cold of your darkness, which you may have been cleaning in yourself now, maybe they have to really grow legs to survive or get moving along!
      So maybe it's like the jocularity of surviving hardship you laughed at.

      "A bug in a dress" was a perfect and concise description of all facets of my being and was also very witty, because a bug in a dress is an unparalleled comic image.
      = Sounds like what is ugly, undesirable, or pesty, in you dressed up to resemble beauty, the desirable, and nice - in all your facets. It's a common condition with us humans.
      So just before the dream, you had a spiritual epiphany or realisation of whatever the truth of that image is, which was witty of you.
      And I can see the humour in that. It's irony, where the intended meaning is opposite to the actual meaning.


      TwilightShawn
      I you mix beef ramen and yogurt you can make pee!
      = Ramen is a Japanese noodle dish.
      So maybe if you mix two opposites that don't go together, you make waste.
      Maybe hot and cool emotions. Or maybe you think the main meal in life can't be sweet - like work, for example.
      Or maybe beef ramen is your favourite dish, and yogurt you hate. So it means mixing what you like with what you hate is wasteful.


      Tradl3s
      Maybe you or one of your friends felt like they were in a corner, so acted like a baby in a weird way that was funny, like making out he he didn't understand the situation at all because he didn't know how to get out of it, and just wanted what was comfortable. That would be really funny.
      This dream is a hard one though.


      OneirosOnkelos & Timkitchen
      Joking in a dream can mean seeing the humour in something.
      Or maybe that you think something is a joke.

      DREAM ONE
      A few weeks ago someone in a dream yelled "LEEEEROOY JENKINS!" like in that popular WoW video. It was the funniest thing ever. When I woke up, it didn't seem that funny.

      Leeroy Jenkins- Doing it Leeroy Jenkins Style. Meaning to do something so bloody wild that you'll be talked about for months because it was bloody insane.
      Running into a Boss in a dungeon in World of Warcraft Solo Taking on mobs of up to 100 all level 55 screaming "LEEEEERRROOOOYYY JJJJENNNKKINNSSSS!!!" is a classic example of "Doin' it Leeroy Jenkins Style."

      = Maybe how much you had to take on in life was insane and made you crack up with laughter.

      DREAM TWO
      Army guy speaking to his commander like, "Yes sir, I will protect my country and serve..." before he went into battle.
      It was just so funny that the army guy was being so stupid and naive and was willing to kill for his country.
      =Maybe you thought it's an hilarious joke what you must obey in life, like a soldier or robot, presumably for the good of all, before you go into the battle of life.
      To protect ands serves ideas that command and enslave you. That is pretty hilarious.
      That can explain why you woke up directly. It is a big message.

      I could hardly believe my mind could come up with something so funny. But the longer I thought about it, the more I realized it wasn't funny at all.
      = Because you lose the real symbollic meaning when you wake up into the literal world. So that's how your sense of humor is skewed somehow.

      It was really complicated, perhaps too complicated for me to grasp in real life, and that's why it was so funny.
      = Perhaps you grasped this truth only in a rare moment in your life. That's when the insane hilarity hit home.

      Maybe you thought it so funny you were being so stupid and naive and willing to kill what was against this, supposedly for the greater good.
      But at the same time you realized how stupid you were. And you mocked what commands you, perfectly imitating a stupid nationalist - or one who just does what is supposedly best for the whole, instead of thinking for himself.
      Yet you knew you really needed to go to battle in life, so you did it, half telling the truth.
      So half the hilarity was irony.


      DreamHighlander
      It might be you thinking of your stand up performance and hoping your perfomance will be great.
      Or maybe sometimes in life you were put on the spot and tried to see the humour in it. And your perfomance was great.
      So, again, once you lose the symbolic meaning, the meaning can no longer be seen.

      The bit with physical comedy might be about your action on stage, making it funny, or physical comedy.
      Or in real life your action was amusing, or you saw the hilarity in some of your actions.

      Now that reply must have taken some thought, and time.
