Thread: This Man?

Can't say I recognize him. Quite an interesting phenomenon though. It's probably this:

DREAM IMITATION THEORY
This is a scientific psycho-sociological theory which claims that this phenomenon has arisen casually and has progressively developed by imitation. Basically when people are exposed to this phenomenon they become so deeply impressed that they start seeing this man in their dreams.

Or this:

DAYTIME RECOGNITION THEORY
This theory states that the apparitions of this man are purely casual. Normally we do not remember precisely the faces we see in our dreams. The image of this man would thus be an instrument which, in the subject's waking life, facilitates recognition of an undefined oneirical image.

I've never seen him in any of my dreams. Maybe he is your mind's "Default" face.

I doubt its the Dream Imitation Theory, since the majority of people dreamed of him without even seeing him at first.

I think the other one is more likely too. In defense of the first one though: memory is not a solid substance, especially the memory of dreams. It's quite possible that people think they remember seeing someone that looks like him, while really they saw someone that just looked alike.

Wow, that is pretty weird. But I can't say I've ever seen him in any of my dreams. Let's just hope he doesn't show up in my dreams tonight! He just seems scary, and would probably make my dream a nightmare. D:
But I think it would be interesting to talk to him in a lucid. I guess I'll have to try that sometime.
