Thread: Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

When I had my first LD before joining here (it was actually a total accident) the french guard from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" was there. He kept insulting me, and by the time he got to "I FART in your general direction!" I woke up. It was too hilarious.

Lol wow, sounds awesome.

Was an accomplice of a book character in the hijacking of a bubble-gum truck, which was in the middle of a jungle. And the book character kept on throwing bubble-gum out the window saying that the explosions would slow down the cops.

simone93 that's a really funny one
A few days ago I was dreaming that I was telling a priest about the a dream I had.
In another dream I was telling my best friend about my latest dreams and lucid dreams and when I told her I dreamed about someone the person appeared and smiled
Also I've had lots of false awakenings where I would write in mu dream journal

I went to a gas station with afriend and bought gasoline to help with having a lucid dream, which is wierd for four reasons.
1. I don't have a lot of money.
2. I don't know a gas station by the name of goils
3. The gas stations is in the middle of an indoor mall (Malls/Stores/Hospitals are the most common places I go when I dream).
4. The friend I'm talking to is a monkey.

I just can't take a hint. Even when my self is tring to tell me I'm dreaming.

Yeah I missed something pretty obvious that should've made me lucid. I was on a rollercoaster and suddenly a London bus came down the other end of the track in front of me. I managed to jump off but apparently it was part of the ride. Then I had to jump down a 100 foot waterfall into a 1 meter wide hole. After all that I still wasn't lucid.

Yeah I have had heaps of these, like driving my car on water, walking into a room with a bunch of toilets (with no partitions), seeing people in places they shouldn't be, finding myself back at highschool...
But I have found that if you decide that everytime you question whether your dreaming, that you probably are... Then you should be right, cause I don't think I've ever mistaken real life for a dream.

haha i just woke up and had to get on and post this.. I actualy had a LD, it was very short and not clear at all, anyways the false awakening is the part that I cant believe i didnt re become lucid. I woke up and was like , damn that was a horrible LD, then looked over and the girl from the show glee was sleeping next to me, lol dont know how i didnt realize it was still a dream! damn FA's .. btw does anybody else have their clearest and longest LDs after False awakening then realizing its a dream and becoming lucid that way?

yeah thats something Im trying to teach myself, if at any point im like, is this a dream? then it is lol

I've got one, once I was having a dream and I asked myself "am I dreaming?" but something told me I wasn't dreaming. So I didn't become lucid.

A few months ago when I was WILDing, while in bed for about 20minutes my friend enters the room, sits down next to me and asks "what are you doing?".
I replied in an irritated voice "I'm trying to have a lucid dream, could you please leave me alone". He apologized and left the room.

The whole thing was of course a dream, which I realized when I woke up. I explained to him what happened and we both had a good laugh.

Apparently my dreaming self thinks floating around everywhere is perfectly normal lol.

Sister woke me up about a text right when I was on the verges of a dream (seriously, almost done walking over my fictitious Lucid Bridge, eyelids fluttering, eyes moving like no tomorrow). In my fright I punched her in the stomach because I thought I was being assailed by an assassin.

last night i was having a magical duel with my friend but i was too powerful and created a smoke monster in the mall. i pinched my nose and tried to breath and it still worked, but i was convinced the scene was too real to be a dream. damn

I dreamt about school. First of all, it is summer, and I don't have school. That shouldn't tipped me off.

Then, when reading a packet, I even thought to myself, "Am I dreaming?". Then I just continued on with the packet.

I'd rather do work than become lucid. LOL

Well i was planning on attempting a WILD that night and then i dreamt i was at a shopping centre and i felt half asleep and i was like in a shopping trolley getting pushed around by my family and then i kept telling everyone to shut up because i wanted to WILD and i was not comfortable and i was pissed i kept wanting to then i woke up and was to tired so went back to bed

I had a FA but thought somethings wrong so I pinched my nose and was able to breath.I became lucid and started flying and closed my eyes imagining I a scene so I would get there.I almost did it but I thought about awakening and woke up.I didn't move at all so I could go back in my dream but for some reason my toes started moving in a weird way without me doing anything.So I thought: Damn it!!!Why are my toes moving like this??!!So I went back to sleep.Only the next day I realized it must have been another FA

My first semi-lucid dream... I could feel myself waking up and didn't know how to stay in it

I had one last night... so close, I was going to pinch my nose, but then my brother was there, he asked me if I was lucid... I said yes.

GODDAMMIT!

I had one the other night. For some reason I had to get into a raft naked to go down the river but the girl behind me was fully clothed... I wanted to kick myself lol.

I had a very big one recently. I saw myself in a classroom type place, and I heard someone across the room mention something about consciousness. I immediately became interested, and what followed was a full-out discussion about lucid dreaming without me even realising it was a dream. Then after that, someone put on some music and then madly slid over and back under a table in rapid succession many times.

I play First-Person Shooter games...And when I am trying to WILD, Soldiers shot me so I can't WILD...(But I am already in a dream and can't figure it out....)The only thing I would have to do is to do a Reality Check...

Last one i had a dream about some douchebag at my school, and he was hanging out with me.

Then i woke up and i realized, wait WTF - I don't even personally know this kid lol

Okay this is RIDICULOUS. So today, I set the alarm to 6 in the morning. I wake up, wash, eat breakfast, and zonk out again. I hear an alarm again. Look at the time. Wtf? 6 o'clock. Oh well, false awakening, I think. I go out of bed. Go to the washroom, wash my face, eat another (unsatisfying) breakfast, and then pass out AGAIN. Now guess what happened? I hear an alarm bell once more. I look at the time. 6 o
clock. What THE hell? I check my hands. Five fingers. Then, I pinch my nose. Can't breathe. Dang!
Shoulda reality checked when I had the chance. -_-
