Thread: Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

I had one dream where I was in front of wal mart talking with this girl about lucid dreaming. We were telling each other our dream signs and everything...

I once had a dream where I went to work only it looked much different than it normally does, and on one wall was a massive mural of a city and a sky above it (isn't really there). I said to someone who was near me that "this seems exactly like something that would happen in a dream," and yet it did not occur to me to check to see if I was dreaming.

last night I was ina grocery store with an Exfriend and my mom came out of nowhere and told me to help her carry the fruit and I got this overwhelming feeling of 'this is really weird' but my nose pinch RC failed :/.

I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, after I washed my hands I turned to the door and their was a strange man in the hallway. I asked him "Where am I?" to which he replied "Sleeping comfortably in your bed." It was creeped out so bad I woke up.

My cat ribbit like a frog at me once and I never for the smallest second figured I might have been dreaming, I just took it as reality.

Last night I re-entered the same dream 3 times and failed each time to reckognise that I'm dreaming about the same thing again, I just thought that I did all the stuff yesterday or something like that.

Somehow I keep dreaming about being on the buss

And it happend ofc again this morning... so I think to myself in the dream at the buss "I always dream about being on the buss, I wonder why I do that. I guess I better check if I'm dreaming the next time I'm on a buss in my dreams" and I remember also thinking "I must google about dreaming alot about busses"

And last night I saw Kermit the frog in my dream walking under me.... and I was like "Ohhh there goes Kermit the frog".

First I dreamed of an event, and then later in the dream I told my teacher about it saying, "I had this dream that..."
I guess its sort of a false awakeing.
Just silly that I didn't notice.

I was watching some birds fly and I thought, "I wish I were dreaming, then I could fly too."

I had gotten into some trouble, but I knew I could get out of it by waking myself up... and yet I didn't become lucid.

I was fighting someone, doing slow motion maneuvers, and I thought, "Some people can do this while they're dreaming."

Me: Can you actually talk, or only when I'm dreaming?
My cat: What do you think?

I had several dreams about lucid dreaming without becoming lucid Once, I tried to rewind time as I often do in my dreams, and it has already been a good dreamsign for me before, but this time I just thought about it a little and then said: No, I won't become lucid now, I'll better see how it is to rewind time ...
And once, I dreamed I was in my school and a friend said something like: "Didn't you want to have a lucid dream?" and I was quite annoyed because I hadn't become lucid for a long time and my friend seemed to make fun of me. In another dream, I was visiting this website ... and once I looked at my hand to do a reality check, but the hand looked as always. And several times I just said: "I have to become lucid!" in my dreams, but never realized that I was already dreaming ...

I was walking through a water filled trench that had a ton of dead seals in it and I was In knee deep water I went to high ground to see if my pants were wet and they were dry and then I thought (i never knew my chords were water proof)

I have my Lucid Weaver on my phone go off at random times during the day for me to do a RC. last night i left it on so I could hear it in my sleep (at night I make it so two lots of three beeps go off).

I remember a dream of being at work, and suddenly my RC alarm went off. I was just about to do an RC maybe, then on the second que, it turned out to be someone else in the office with Lucid Weaver. They tried to cover it up by pretending to answer the phone as if they didn't want anyone to think it was a dream alarm - Which is what I think in Waking life. But I don't pretend to answer my phone when it goes off.

Anyway. The dream was vivid and I missed out. I'll turn it on tonight again and see how I go.

I'm ok with most spelling errors, but I can't get over the fact that you spelled "annoying" wrong, lol.....twice

~I feel this way all the time, letting you know how much I need to up my LDing skillz....but I'm getting better at making reality checks a habit nowadays, plus it really helps to read my dream journal before bed to put me in a dream mindset (I often re-enter dreams when doing this)

I was in a dream and i started flying around and i told the person next to me (flying as well) "this is almost like a dream huh, too bad its not" And then we kept on flying...No lucidity what so ever lol

Last night I had a dream where i was teaching a guy to levitate we were
floating around about twenty feet in the air and it was great fun, i did
not become lucid though.

Later followed a dream where i was driving along a road with somes friends
in a flying saucer i decided to show off by taking off and flying over some
houses, again no lucidity.

This morning I was dreaming that a guy from my last school I saw on the train some days ago was saying to me "I had a dream and you were in it". I really wonder why that didn't make me lucid.

But I became lucid later in the dream though

I was in car and was on my way to cram school. It was night time and I thought to myself, "What if this was a dream?"
And the dream just went on. Fail.

Just a couple nights ago, I had a dream that I was walking through downtown Vancouver.
Nothing special happened, until a little message popped up infront of me saying " Melatonin now causes a twin!"

I looked at it, looked away and kept walking.

Much cursing ensued that morning

I had a nonlucid flying dream. But is was more fun than all my lucid flying dreams are, because I thought it was real, so I'm glad I didn't become lucid.

hahahahahahahahahaha

I always miss a whole lot of obvious dreamsigns in every dream I have

The latest I remember is this dream where my sis, bro and some other person were going somewhere, and the first dreamsign was that they rode away on a motocross and a scooter, neither of which we have, but I thought it was perfectly normal.

Not to talk about the ritual they used to get to where they were going. Seriously, that ritual had like 10 dreamsigns in it

First, you had to crush five eggs (!) against the sidewalk. When you had done that, you had to create a spot "more black than black", so that you could "see the night sky inverted". But that's normal, isn't it?

The second dreamsign of the ritual is probably the most stupid (and funny) of them all. You had to have someone write a specific word (it wasn't a real word) above your head. Then you soared up into the sky, seeing a bright light shining from the one who wrote the text above your head. Still, perfectly normal of course.

Then you would fall down again, and a Windows Form Application (!!) would pop up in front of you. It would contain a number of destinations, including the place my sis and bro were going to.

After the ritual there were some other dreamsigns as well, such as time skipping, magical creatures that looked like Santa Claus and such.

Of course, my stupid SOB brain thought that all of these things were absolutely normal. I hate my brain

"would you like some pancakes on your hamburger"


*sigh* It was a failed WILD.

I looked at a rock.

The Most F#$%ed up fail i've ever had.

Heheh, another one was a dream where I was in some kind of sunken city or something, where all the city's inhabitants were merfolk. I wasn't a merman, but I could still somehow breathe underwater and swim as fast as a doplhin. There were at least 5 different things that should've made me question reality, but all I could think of was to have sex with this really hot mermaid (which actually would've been impossible, since she had no...well, you know ).
