Thread: Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

In one of my dreams i had to climb up a metal staircase, where every-so-often a ball of fire would suddenly burst through the wall, whilst carrying a baby with the rest of my family following behind me... (this is a non lucid dream btw)

Anyway, i could see in front of me fire start to errupt from the wall, so i say to my self randomly "its only a dream the fire cant hurt me!" So im about to walk into the errupting fire ball with only a baby and some random hope to protect me when my Dad shouts from behind me "ITS ONLY SMOKE, IT CANT HURT YOU"
So i walk through the fire which has become harmless smoke, turn to my Dad and shout a thanks, completly forgetting that I realised it was a dream - because walking through smoke disguised as fire, while holding a baby as protection, with my family waiting to see if i get burned is of course a normal thing!

Thanks alot Dad! (-_-)

In one of my dreams, a friend of mine was kind of drowning and I saw a girl running on water coming to rescue my friend. I was like:"WOW, how can she do it?!" LOL

i think the fact that most of these are ppl doing RCs in their dreams then not doing anything about it goes to show that RCs don't work for sum ppl.

Yeah - but did you ever actually THINK that you were dreaming during this time? Dreams of falling are common. If you can develop those into a dreamsign then you have a shot at it! That's why I used to encourage you to journal and look for things that recur.

You've been in your school in both of these, right? Or your schoolyard, anyway. That's a dreamsign for you. You should do an RC every time you enter or realize you are in your school yard.

I was helping my mother unload some groceries from her car after driving back from the supermarket. Suddenly I realized that I was still holding on to the shopping cart. I thought to myself, "how the hell did I fit this in the car for the drive home? Was I holding this on my lap the whole time?" I even asked my mother, who replied, "Just ditch it on the curb, I'm sure a bum will come get it".

255 posts is that? Or view, whatever it is, hoorey for hexidecimal snes game hex numbers!

Thought it needed to be said, sorry!

confused... but i like SNES games... so you diserve a cookie ... anyway back on topic......

The stupidest way i missed becoming lucid so far.

I am playing cards with some people and i was losing but then i thought doesn't matter because i am dreaming so i used magic powers to cheat and somehow i didn't become lucid.

Actually i laughed. (Couldn't believe i didn't become lucid).

I don't know whats worse, me not becoming lucid in my dream or you not becoming lucid in yours.

Hahahahh...exactly, well I'm sure they're equally frustrating as they're missed opportunities. Hopefull we'll be more aware the next time some situations like that come about and not be so unaware and passive.

Heh.. I just had sex with a girl, I chased here, but then she just gave up, and let me fuck her. (Been a long time.)

Felt animalistic. Hehe.. And I feel kind of bad for chasing her..

last night i asked my brother to show me his football trophies and as i was reading one of them which he was really proud of i tryed to read it but i couldn't. I was trying to read it for ages but it was so difficult (great my brother thinks i can't read) so in the end i took it off him and looked at it really closely and it read something like the best performance ever by man except for Kaka's against some team.

When i woke up i realised i that the reason i couldn't read it was because text changes in dreams! I am having aot of near lucids with my brother lately, it's like he is trying to make me lucid but i am too stupid too.

When i was around 4 or 5, i would do a reality check, to make sure I was OUT of my dream. The reason is that one time I had a dream, and I woke up in the dream. i got out of my bed, thinking my dream was over. Then something flew out from under my bed and I heard an evil laugh. It was the monsters who lived under my bed. When I woke up for real, I tossed a shoe under my bed. It didn't come back out which meant that I was safe.

But getting angry at myself because I didn't realize I was dreaming? It happens. But usually my dream isn't that iteresting to begin with. But is there was a hot chick I could of made out with, oh yeah I get pissed.

I had the most annoying FA this morning... I FA'd from a Lucid dream and my brother and sister were in my room... I started explaining my experience.. Then my sister was like "How do you know that you finished the dream?" I'm like what do you mean.. And shes like " wake up Jamal" and I really woke up. Dang FA's

I had a dream last night where I was back in Hawaii driving along the coastal road to my Father's house. I came around a blind turn at the point, and saw the road in front of me was all eroded away to rocks and sand. I tried to turn around, but there was no way to get back to the highway. I was so frustrated, I said to myself, "I wish this was a dream, I would just drive right into that beautiful pristine water and not have to deal with any of this."

But instead, I picked my car up above my head so it wouldn't get wet, and waded through the waves to where the road picked up again.

I had one where my wife and I were lounging on the beach. She gets up and dives into the water, tells me to come along. My exact words were, "If I dive in, I'll lose my lucidity!"

Not only was I not lucid, I didn't become lucid after that. Man, I detested myself when I woke up.

i once got accused of falling asleep in a restaurant.. to which i replied "oh sorry, i'm trying to have a lucid dream"... this came straight after i'd been lying in bed doing the whole "i will have a lucid dream..." thing

a similar sort of thing this morning.. again i was going to sleep doing that sort of MILD-esque thing.. then i had a dream i was filling a form out to join some kind of lucid dream club... hmm ¬_¬

Once I was telling a friend at school about lucid dreaming, I was talking about reality checks as well.

Another time is when I was looking at my watch, then I looked up a clock, then back at my watch again. But I did not seem to mind that they were all never the same time rofl.

I am floating down the Amazon river with my sister and an indigenous guide who I'm pretty is stoned when somebody says something about how this scene reminds them of a movie called 'You Are Dreaming.' I pull out a hardcopy edition of Wikipedia and flip to the entry on it. 'You Are Dreaming' is scrawled at the top in bazillion-point font and I sort of gape at the header for a long time before just closing the book and reclining in the boat, like nothing out of the ordinary has occurred.

This is why I don't rely on DILDs.

I have several times become a Spartan Warrior (from Halo) and flown, shot fire from my hands, been a bird, found my dad's secret apartment under my school, hired a hooker that will not have sex just will do things with me and have ridden through the desert on a talking horse with my brother overtaking me on foot.

I actually had one where i failed the RC where you pinch your nose and for some reason i still couldn't bring my self to reality.

I had a dream where i was the vampire king building the vampire army to take over the world.
I jumped off a skyscraper and i didnt think anything of it because i was immortal

I had a dream last night where I was on vacation in an alternate dimension. My entire family was there, but they were all played by different characters and had slight disturbing changes. You know the type of scenario.

I was packing to go to the airport for my flight home. Next thing I know, I'm awake in bed, and I have to use the bathroom badly. I can't remember how I got home. I can't remember the drive to the airport, the flight home, the cab ride back to my house. It's all a blank.

I walk to the bathroom, and notice the clock says 1:6. I think, It must mean 1:36. I'll have to have that fixed. I then go pee in a giant fountain-urinal in my bathroom. I walk back into the room, and see my girlfriend in bed. I'm about to wake her up to ask her how the hell we got home, but I notice that our bedsheets have giant golden pyramids printed all over them. What the hell? We don't have sheets like that. Then I notice that I am not at all in my room. I still can't figure it out.

My girlfriend wakes up and explains to me that we never went to the airport because I couldn't get my stuff packed in time. We missed our flight, and we are still on vacation.

That explains everything. Dummy.
