Simply put: What are your views on intentionally hunting down specific DC's and killing them in a gruesome manner? Is this a good or bad thing for the mind? I have plans on locating all of my ex's (the one's worth my ventilation, anyway) and putting them all 6 feet under in more than one piece.

I have mixed views on why I want to do this. Firstly: because I feel it will help cleanse my mind of unwanted personages. Symbolism is strong in dreams, and death can represent the end of something old/unwanted. I've always been very literal when it comes to ''facing my demons'', and go by the understanding that what I sort out in the dream world will be sorted in terms of my state of mind generally.
There are also sadistic influences. Although I'm not a violent person, I have had my deranged phases in which I've wanted to take the lives of others in mannerisms too explicit to go into here (from which states of mind I'm safety at ease from these days). It would be interesting to see what I'm actually capable of doing in a lucid dream.. and how realistic the end result would look.
