Thread: Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

I was dreaming I was walking around a bit and suddenly people started running and screaming around. So I ask what happend. They told me the third world war had begun. So I replied: "Relax, this is just a dream. You can't get hurt. I'm dreaming, nothing will happen to you." Somehow I said this without being lucid. And all of the peope got really angry at me for not taking them serious. (Is that a good english sentence?)

Should be:

...angry at me for not taking them seriously.

Ok - this AM: I was brushing my (deceased) cat. I know i would have caught on in seconds!!! But for some crazy reason, i dreamt that my alarm went off right before my cat showed up, so after petting him for a bit (and not taking that as a cue to go LUCID!) i decided i better wake up!!! Yikes!!! How do you deal with that??? (Next time, go with the fact that I am brushing my deceased cat and screw the alarm, right? - even if i do need to wake up when the alarm really does go off!)

ps what a great thead!

Ha ha, I knew I'd be contributing to this thread soon!

I think my subconscious was having a joke with me last night - it took all my (some only tentatively considered) dreamsigns, my prospective memory-training subjects (dogs, adverts, cars) and put them all in one dream!

And then towards the end of the dream my subconscious really stuck the knife in: I went to a market, saw a stall with incense, buddha statues etc, turned round to my gf and said, "Hey, I might be able to find something here to help with my lucid dreaming."

No RC!

Now i don't feel so stupid missing my dream sign and believing the PHONY alarm clock instead. Thanks for the good laugh!!!
