After various (non-lucid) dreams I'd often wake up thinking that there were some extremely clever/creative aspects to some of the dialogue within my dreams. However, I'd struggle to remember specifically what these were. For that reason I'd often dismiss the notion that any of it had any real substance because, let's face it, the brain's not exactly in top gear, in some aspects, during sleep (example: rationalising a flying pig and not recognising you're in a dream).
However, this view changed entirely when, during a lucid dream, I decided to pay attention to the TV (got the idea from the film 'Waking Life', I'd imagine most of you are fimiliar with this).
Now, this is a daft example, but it's been a while since I've remembered any dreams and this was some time ago, but whilst watching TV this one time, my subconscious mind came up with a large chunk of a South Park episode. Fan or not, you must be able to appreciate the wit involved in the writing. I've watched every episode to date and the material my mind came up with was totally original. I woke up remembering the vast majority of it.
Now, please bear in mind that this is just one example, I can't remember the specifics of any others (more reason for my to get my act together and keep a DJ), but there were examples of good ideas and conversation that I'd usually consider above myself in some ways.
Might all sound like a bit of a farse cause the truth is, I can't remember any examples well enough to quote them (as I said, been a while since I've remembered a dream). Regardless, I'd love to hear people's experiences relating to a similar subject ^_^
