Waking Life Lucid Dreamer Greeting Idea Thread (Verbal)

[Baron Samedi]

Is the purpose of this to recognize lucid dreamers when you meet them without openly telling each other, or is it more of a handshake for fellow lucid dreamers. It would be hard to create a phrase that doesn't sound out of place if it was meant for identifying new lucid dreamers. 'May lucidity be with you.' (that's not really a greeting, but any Lucid Dreamer will understand it and it won't sound too much out of place) @StephL That's a great idea for a catchy German phrase. I really love the ambiguity of it! I`d like to cross-link this and the physical/visual thread with this one: http://www.dreamviews.com/general-lu...real-life.html Members discovering other lucid dreamers as well.. I sort of update my own discovery count there - lastly I found some on my darts-forum. Muuch more interest and actual experiences came up, than I expected - maybe one or the other will click my links to DV I put up. Got to maybe think of a further small link-list, I personally would like to water these darter´s mouths with. So swagilicious, whatsnext. Thx for showing, That is perfection. I might just go overboard with it and take a bunch of pictures right now xD I think that it needs to be something that the largest number of people would be comfortable enough to say to someone they are meeting for the first time (to increase the possibility of success). The key is the matching response. It could be something natural like "(Nice) to meet you" swapped out with a word that isn't used that often, perhaps "(Splendid) to meet you." The response could be "Splendid to meet you too, interesting word choice...splendid." If you want to be sure, maybe the first person responds to the responder "deja vu." There could be a separate saying for acquaintances that you haven't discussed LDing with before, perhaps an exact, short phrase like "Whoa, deja vu." Again, the key is the matching response, maybe "It sounds like you need to unplug" (both from The Matrix). If the first person meant nothing related to LDing by using the deja vu phrase and looks at you strange with the "unplug" response, you can say "oh...your deja vu comment just reminded me of a line in the The Matrix." (you can decide from there if you want to discuss LDing at all). There is a main chat thread for brainstorming (making a list of many different good/bad random creative ideas). This thread is for listing one idea per post for the purpose of voting. Please reserve all comments for the main chat thread. http://www.dreamviews.com/general-lu...rainstorm.html I will cross-post all these replies to this thread.

Understood, ok. Idea #1 - matching response - meeting first time: "Splendid to meet you." The response would be "Splendid to meet you too, interesting word choice...splendid." If you want to be sure, the first person responds to the responder "deja vu."
