Thread: Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

Just last night, I was going to sleep in a multi-bed thing which had several single bends joined at the feet in some sort of star shape. One of my friends was there, and we were going to use these suction cups to tell when we were lucid dreaming. We put several on the ceiling and walls, and they start with an impression that is red. When they turn green, you are lucid dreaming. Anyways, as I sat there in the dream, they all just started turning green, and my friend and I were just wondering what was going on.

Talking rubber bands with eyes seemed pretty normal to me, so I didn't become lucid.

I wake up roll over in bed and grab my tv remote. I hit the guide button and start looking to see whats on. I wasnt able to find anything so I just dropped the remote and turned over to go back to sleep. Then my sister comes in and tells me to wake up and I realize as soon as she said that that I had never rolled over and checked the tv. It was just a dream but it was so normal I thought I had woken up.

After a second or so, my bus stops and I get out. I'm in front of a basket hall I used to play. I get in, speak with a few guys. They ask me why I have back-ache. How the hell do they know? I thought that I mentioned it already
Me: I'm sitting through the day studying at university. And it makes me obvious sick!
I take my shoes of and take a new pair that I found in my backpack. I'm excited to play with the guys. I look around me, everything gets more bright and clear. I remind myself that I dream sometimes about basketball, although I don't play no more. So I just think:

Me: Next time you play basket, do a RC!

After this master-thought I play an amazing game and don't think about it anymore.

I had one where I was reading how to do the DILD technique online! Lol i felt like SUCH an ASS.

Last night, the police officers in my dream told me that this was a dream and I could not get anybody arrested.

Once I had a dream that i was having a conversation with a dream character at some public place and he was talking to me about dreams....and I didn't become lucid....

Me: "Am I dreaming?"

Random DC: "Of course not!"

Me: "I should at least check..."

DC: "No you're not, go back to sleep!"

From my DJ - Jan 3, 2011:

• Non-Dream • Dream • Lucid •

I had a long dream where I was telling people how disappointed I was that I didn't have a lucid dream last night!
I spoke all about dreams, dream signs and becoming lucid and I never once did a reality check! Devastating...

I woke up and made a note of it, then fell back asleep - only to make the same mistake again!

I was still thinking about how I missed a great opportunity, and I dreamt that I came on DV and wrote a journal entry about my non-lucid, lucid-themed dream. Still no reality checks!

Having just written that, I did checks this time to make sure I wasn't going to get lucky third time around.
Alas, this is the real world.

Two close experiences this week...

I've been having dreams about this post-apocalyptic world for some reason. Wednesday night, I dreamed that I was with a group of survivors, and I watched one of them die in a horrific accident. But moments later, he was back with our group like nothing had happened, and I just accepted it I even mentioned to him how difficult it was to watch him die, and he said "Yeah, I know, imagine how it was for me".

Last night, same thing- post apocalyptic world. This time, my group of survivors got captured by another group who wanted our supplies. The hostage situation was very intense, so I looked at my hands (I'm reading Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self, that's where I got the idea). My hands were very wavy and unstable, and I was missing a couple fingers; it was similar to how you can create the illusion of missing digits by crossing your eyes. I realized I was dreaming for a moment, and realized I could try to get away, but one of the captors approached me and started yelling at me, so I lost it and got sucked back into the dream.

I keep getting so close!

I had my first lucid dream last night...sort of, basically in the dream I was in some hall fighting this fat kid, and I thought "hey this doesn't happen in real life, I must be dreaming", then I just went back to regular dreaming, like I didn't even fucking do anything, I realized I was lucid for like 2 seconds, then I lost lucidity, IMAD.

You should play fallout.

I was messing with a DC getting him to do stupid things cuz i somewhat knew it was a dream, then i had a False Awakening where the DC was still there and i laughed cuz i had fooled him and he was confused, however i wasn't aware that i was still dreaming (although i was in a pool in the clouds telling a DC about the lucid dream -_-)

Last night I went through to my school gym and found used condoms all over the floor. Then two people come in and shout "what have you been doing!" And start picking up the condoms. I then drag myself (using only my arms) through the gym towards the second entry with hooks, really slowly, while the two people are "chasing" after me because apparently I'M the one who needed all the condoms and left them all over the floor.

One time I dreamed of having Gene Simmons lecture us about drugs. I asked my friend who he was and he said it was John Lennon. I knew it was Gene Simmons.

I was in this building from the game halo, and i was being chased by magic people and i ran round a corner and i paused everything and saved it O_O. But i wasn't playing the xbox, it was like i was the actual character. When i woke up i was like wtf.
But i've never gone lucid, so i guess it will be harder for me to realise im dreaming.

I was with my friend who told me about lucid dreaming, and I suddenly realize I'm dreaming. Then I look at how vivid everything is and I say nevermind, I'm awake.

How about helping Michael Jackson beat people up with tennis rackets?
I became lucid afterwards but that was because of my alarm.

I went to panda express in a dream.... they advertised a new product Mtn Dew( dreamsign of mine), but not just any Mtn Dew.. Mtn Dew Lucid was the new product. I merely said I wanna try that! *facepalm*

Shortly after I quit my job at McDonalds, I found myself working in drive thru and talking to some really rude customers. I remember getting angry and saying "What the hell am I doing here anyway? I quit two weeks ago! I must be dreaming." My boyfriend walked by (who still worked there in RL) and he just laughed and said "maybe you are." I said yea right and went on taking orders from DCs. I even slammed a guy's finger in the window cause he wouldn't take his change. Tried tipping me 3 cents. What an asshole lol anyway. I ended up just quitting in the dream and walking out to my boyfriend who was eating some fries on his break, with a tray in some van. I couldn't get in so I just waved to say goodbye and woke up.

I was in my old school gym that had been knocked down a year ago, and didn't go lucid.

I saw my brother, who is currently studying abroad, and didn't go lucid.

I saw Synyster Gates across the street. And didn't go lucid.

All three have since become my dreamsigns. *facepalm*

A llama humped me then shat in my catbox and I didn't become lucid.

I had my head down on my desk in algebra class and I looked up for a few seconds at my wrist. I looked at my watch but didnt actually try to tell time I just looked at it to look at it. I put my head back down and just sat there a little bit. Suddenly I realized "I DON"T WEAR A WATCH!!!!" The only explanation was that I must have dreamt looking at the watch. The problem was when i was thinking it I didnt know if I was awake or asleep so I looked up to see if I was still dreaming because I never remembered falling asleep or waking up. Sadly I was really awake and not still dreaming.

About three nights ago I dreamed of this weird cave painting animation of a man and woman having primitive conversations. All of a sudden, the woman starts freaking out, screaming "GO LUCID!" over and over again. The man just shrugs and walks away.

That would stupid enough, but it actually wasn't over! The woman went on to explain that we could only be together if I went lucid. At the very instant, however, she transformed into a giant spider monster, howling like a banshee. I basically said "Screw that!" and she disintegrated. Unfortunately, I still had no idea I was dreaming

I dreamed I was teaching a group of hot girls how to lucid dream, and bragging about how often I get lucid...oh the irony
