Dream Signs In Real Life

**icuurd12b42** · 08-12-2006 08:39 AM

OK, so with all the information floating around us (Billboards, TV, Movies, Product Names, etc) , I have noticed many weird advertisements and other odd warning signs that suggest I might be dreaming IRL!

Now, though a scary concept for some, I find it funny at times.

I started to wonder when, in my area, a new realtor company popped up and the billboard says:

Exit realty matrix.
Looks almost like: Exit reality matrix.

Funny. I thought I should capture it though I don’t have a digital camera.

So, I thought, hmm... We could take advantage of all the digital camera phones out there and the Attach function on this new site to post pictures that suggest you are dreaming IRL.

So, I created this thread for you to post your pictures of these oddities.

Assignment: Be on the look out for advertisement that suggest you are dreaming, Take a picture and attach them here!

Have fun!

I know, Have you seen the sky diver commercial?

There was also this car commercial with the song lyrics “just like in my dreams” or something like that.

One of my pet dreamy product name is the Revlon makeup company.

It basically means Long Dream in French. Taking into consideration that words are often misspelled in dreams of course.

The mere concept that "reality" is really is dream, is profound to say the least... I have had some weird experiances where I wish I had a digi-cam. I am sure there is shit about this you can read on the net. Anyone know of any good ones?

A profound concept that echoes through many artistic representations. Pictures are the easiest to capture and post though.

I've had crazy moments I wish I could have captured as well. One in particular was a graffiti. Now, the graffiti itself was nothing crazy or anything, what my friends said about it was though.

We get out of this bar down town and I notice a graffiti on a bench. In clear block letters it says ERR0R. I laugh and point it out to my friend (We both are in the computer industry) and he says “I can’t even make out what is spelt“ . I said “Dude, it clearly says ERR0R with a zero for the o“, to which he replied “It‘s all mumbo jumbo to me, I stopped trying to figure it out years ago“. I’m like whoa. I wonder what he saw. I wonder if his picture and mine would show the same thing hehehe.

I haven't found a site that show this kind of thing (that's why I created this thread) so I would be interested in such a link as well.

So, I found pictures of those dreaded Exit Realty Matrix signs.

Taking into account the assumptions that, in dreams, words are not spelled right, this company freaks me out.

Rage broken? Exit this false Reality Matrix now! Hehehe. See thumbnail.

I dunno of this counts (I'll try to get a pic if it's still up there, when I am in town again,)

but at the big town nearest us there's this cheap grocerory store and it's sign says "All are Welcome." It always reminds me of that one movie...you know, "Go towards the light--no, don't go towards the light! Just go towards the light!" one. O_O;

But I always put this sign together with some of my nightmares, something about the creepy store and the creepy people who go into it...and then that sign.,..it's just serreal for me. :yumdumdoodledum:

Ah, pinch yourself. Actually, pinching yourself (according to LaBerge) is the worst thing you can do in a dream. The pain actually convinces you it is real when it is, in actuality, a dream. A dirty trick in deed.

in the virused spam selling viagra, if you can visualize them pure text, you'll find strange sentences.

stuff like "Paul put his own spoon down. The keyhole was the old-fashioned sort, reminding Paul of John Tenniels Alice in Wonderland drawings, set in the middle of a tarnished keyplate.
he asked Annie in this dream" and even a spooky "ack among the trees and have a break. See if you can sort this out.
"

i'ts just to cheat the antispam filters, but before figuring it out i found it very mysterious

I think they get the text from public books. In fragments. It can get pretty weird.

Things not spelt right really support that theory.
