Thread: Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

A fish. Couple of nights ago, I was at a big flooded room, and there was a fish, a big one, looked like a cat fish, and I was talking with him. Yeah, I was talking with a fish. And it even granted me a wish.

Maybe the fact that I realized a dream was NOT reality but I didnt think it was a dream either. "Hmm this isnt real there is no way I can be here with these people...... I wonder why this is happenening if it isnt real..... oh well Ill just go with it" If I would have thought about dreaming once I probably would have become lucid but dreaming never occured to me.

I had a dream about two months ago where in the dream I said, "don't worry this is just a dream." I woke up so mad.. Another one I had recently I was with my grandma and we were at a castle and there was a journal on the table and I told my grandma that she had a very nice looking dream journal. I looked at it like 3 time but didn't think to acknowledge I was dreaming. So frustrating haham

In one of the dreams I had the other night, I said to my friend (who is also interested in lucid dreams during waking life) "Wow man I can't wait to tell you about all the lucid dreams I have been having" because earlier in the dream I had actually been lucid...I felt pretty stupid upon waking but when I told my friend that dream he got a laugh out of it at least (IRL).

I was reading the task of the year, and one was to witness the end of the dinosaurs when an asteroid the size of Mt. Everest collided with Earth. That night I dreamed that I climbed Everest, and I didn't get the hint.

This morning I had a dream that someone at school stole a piece of posterboard from my hands and I got mad at them and tried to chase them down throwing desks around. After a bit I heard my sister say get up. Oh this is a dream. I'm lucid! Crap I have to get up I dont have time to do anything.

Alright so this was quite a stupid one.

I was at a train station located beneath DreamViews Headquarters, Seattle (so it said). After a while of doing nothing much, I decided to take a bus into town. Sitting at the rear end of the bus were a group of Germans doing all kinds of weird reality checks, for instance, making a ring with their thumb and index finger. I knew this wasn't a good reality check so I thought :"They're doing it wrong! You really need to question reality in order for them to be successful." So I start looking around if there's anything odd. After a while I concluded that everything was perfectly normal and went on dreaming without becoming lucid.

After I woke up I was like: You gotta be kiddin' me!

I got stabbed in my stomach and neck by a guy with a machete and ran around bleeding. No one would help me, and the bleeding stopped eventually. Never thought that I might've been dreaming.

Oh, and another one...

I was in a a van with like 3 other people on a mountain side. 2 of the people are in a state far away and the other is in another country -_- We get out, walk over to a cliff side, and jump off into the wind. We stuck out our arms and they acted like kites so we were gliding on the wind and eventually to the random cornfield below.

Go figure :l

Last night I was a frog who was being dissected. One of my weirdest dreams ever :/

Talking to my best friend about lucid dreaming (she is ill and not due back for ages) Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

last night!

dream starts normal a friend was giving me a lift to the shop, I get out the car to the square of shops. An old man had been shot, I went over to see, there was just a bundle of old man clothes with a rat amongst them. The Rat had a bullet wound, i pulled out a box of cheese and waved it under the rats nose, it twitched, opened its eyes then scurried away, everyone got angry and told me the mouse was evil and going to start world war 3

seriously, wtf?

In my bedroom, there's a light fixture in the middle of the ceiling that you turn on and off by pulling a chain. Back on the night of September 16, I had the following dream:

I'm in my bedroom, and I try to turn on the light in the ceiling fan, only to discover that the little white decorative piece at the base of the chain that turns the light on has come unscrewed and slid down to the base of the chain, and that the same event that caused that to happen has also caused the electricity to go out. So we have no electricity, I think to myself. This is going to be an interesting day.

Unfortunately, I had this dream about two weeks before discovering this site, so at the time, I had absolutely no idea that light switches not working is one of the most common dream signs. Yesterday, reading back over the dream journal I have on my hard drive and finding this entry, I realized what I'd done and cracked up laughing.

Am i weird because I never have dreams where lightswitches dont work and If i do it is a night that my light actually went out and I didnt replace the bulb before going to bed. Then in my dream I replace the bulb and it works and I get up in the morning wondering why it doesnt work because I remembered changing the bulb when I woke up in the middle of the night. Then I realize I just dreamt of changing the bulb.

Today,

Im in a dream and i realize im dreaming, im telling myself im dreaming, i try to move up from the bed, at first i cant, but i try again and i manage to get up.
*FA from here: Im in my room and look around, i could have sworn it was REAL, so i tell myself this cant be a dream, it's too real ! i also forgot to reality check!!!
So i lie back in bed to try "catch the dream" again..(stupid), as i close my eyes i see the shape of a fly forming, i try to catch it to "enter" the dream but it doesnt work..shortly after i wake up and feel like a complete idiot >_<

last night i had a dream where i was showing my brother that a good reality check is to run and jump, and the theory was that gravity doesn't work properly so you will end up flying. i gave an example, didn't think to do any other RCs and then continued on dreaming

A couple of months ago, I didn't understand why my RC was working in my "Real life" when it was suposed to work just in my dreams!! I focused on getting out from the cemetery to check again and see what was going on...

Just last night i had a dream I was back at school and a plane was flying really low over head, it kept circling getting lower and lower until eventually it crashed into the school. I decided to take a photo and send it to my dad on my girlfriends iphone then i woke up cause my dad was yelling at me too wake up after i overslept for half an hour.

A couple days ago, I recall a dream fragment that I didn't write in my journal. I was surfing on an ocean of packing peanuts. There were some nice waves, but once the wave broke I found myself standing on solid ground until the next wave came along. When I woke up, I was quite irritated that I didn't catch that one.

This isn't really all that stupid, but I have these ridiculous dreams where I never go lucid because I'm so used to seeing video game characters (on the screen, that is).

For instance, last night I walked up to Cackletta (Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga) and asked her if she was looking for the Triforce (The Legend of Zelda). Seriously?

I had a dream where I was pregnant. I did wonder a little about being pregnant because I haven't had sex and I'm quite young to be pregnant. What I did not think about is the fact that I am male
At least I had a few seconds long WILD that night.

Last night, I dreamed that I was being chased by a police officer and ended up walking into the backyard of my house. It's down by a large lake, but instead of there being a backyard and grass and all, it was straight-up watery mud. I started to swim in it, putting my entire face under and even breathing in the mud, without suffocating. I could still see and didn't close my eyes at all. I'd never even go near mud, let alone be able to breathe or see in it! Obviously...

Just this morning, I had a FA and pinched my nose. I could breathe through it, but I didn't believe. I did that RC with two hands and still didn't believe it. I then looked at the time twice, don't remember if it changed, but I did not become lucid.

New record for me:

Looking at a brochure to go abroad, and in the text, in big red letters it said:
YOU ARE DREAMING

Had two lucid dreams last night, even after the nose-plug RC failed both times because I then looked at my hands for confirmation. I also had a FA DEILD in which I DEILDed within a dream.

After those two dreams, I was talking to a younger man about lucid dreaming...
