Video games and lucid dreams go so well together in metaphors.

Let me use a video game metaphor. I've played countless games where I knew the cheats before playing, and while I was playing. Does that mean I can't refrain myself from using them? The whole experience is that much worse if you're not willing to sit through it all. I don't want it all to be as easy as flicking a switch.

I get what your saying. So is that why you'd want to create your own storyline. That way, your subconscious will give you surprises at every moment, and you wont know what's going to happen next. Its like a little surprise around every corner.

That, and it'd be an extraordinary experience to be in another world, so to speak, while still being familiar with that world.

ok, gotcha. Yea that sounds amazing. Dont you just love lucid dreaming. So many possibilities. My friends and family talk shit about it, but they can think what they want. But its them in the end that are missing out on all the experiences while asleep. Always remember, you sleep 1/3 of your life, and you can spend most of that time being conscious in your dreams. Alright, back to movies, I dont want to hijack this thread lol. Right now I'm watching Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps. I think that's the name hahah. Its the fourth time I've seen it, but I fell asleep the first two times I saw it. I actually really like it and I love the soundtrack. I also watched the zodiac earlier which I've also seen a few time. Also a very good movie but I've only seen the end once. The other night i watched My Babysitters a Vampire on Disney. It was ok, but its a Disney movie, so what do you expect. Im not bashing on Disney movies though. I actually watch Disney channel everyday because it reminds me of all the good times i had as a kid. That and Selina Gomez is hella hott. she's turning nineteen three days after me too, so she's legal for me. Im gonna be 22 on the 20th of this month, Yay. Im getting a 5.56mm AR 15 assault rifle. Im paying for half because its gonna be $1300.
