Weird dreams

I had a dream where I was watching Cartoon Network, for whatever reason, and they had a show called "Roblox and Shrek". The intro was simply some guy saying the show's title and then Shrek appearing and saying a Flat "What". Yes, my dream just lampshaded how weird my dreams are. I found it to be a good show, which is a strange thing to come by from Cartoon Network.

At some point last night, I dreamed I was with my mom driving down the highway on a very stormy day. The radio then said there was a tornado warning in effect, and we saw a funnel cloud touching down in the distance. "Crap, this dream sucks already!" I thought and tried to change it. I wound up turning everything into an Amazon-esque rainforest and everyone into different kinds of animals from there. I was a toucan and my mom was a sloth.

Well, better to be a toucan than killed by a tornado, right?

I had a dream today that I took my fish tank and smashed it on the ground, then freaked out because my fish were still inside. I put them inside a different one, but started crying because of "the chemistry."

I was recording people playing games, for some reason... But the only thing that I actually remember with any clarity was an old guy playing Mario who was mentally inept. I began to zoom in as his pants disappeared, and then he began "playing with his woo woo." Childlike glee.

And then the old guy started to contort his body in strange ways, making his bones warp in illogical manners, and then I think I complimented him? Something about it being rare, and impressive. (He was still naked.)

This is the only dream I've had that's actually disturbed me. I mean, I've had some pretty gory dreams lately, but this one just crossed that line, Y'know?

Around a few years ago, I had this dream during one of the driving trips to Idaho that got on like this: Alongside a few others, I was playing this arcade game and it sucked us into this inline skating obstacle course that led us to a spaceship which was shaped like a fish. When we boarded the space ship at the top, through its mouth, from a ramp, we lifted off, floated and saw some stars from inside the "space-fish".

@Thepenguinking2, kablammin45: Nice dreams you got there, even though I don't watch television anymore.

Don't you hate it when you get woken up in the middle of a great dream?

The last dream I had last night was one where I was...a Gardevoir I think, (I think I might have been a female one at that, but I can't remember) with several other Pokemon (if I remember correctly, they were all starter Pokemon) trudging through snowy mountains and got halted by a bunch of Ghost-type Pokemon. (No Ice-Types? Dream logic...) They were trying to prevent us from getting wherever we were going and Pokemon battles ensued. We managed to beat them all except their leader, a Gengar. He told me that he couldn't let me keep going, or else. He then made himself a hundred feet tall and tried to punch or squish me as I ran away, avoiding his feet and punches all the way. I was about to reach safety and....my mom woke me up because there was somewhere we needed to be. Man....

So last night, I had a dream that I was in the Walmart in Alpena (for a long time, the nearest Walmart to me), only it still looked like it did in The '90s: it was smaller, wasn't a Supercenter, still had the McDonald's up front, and had its old clearance room in the back. I was in the clearance room and it had been turned into a thrift store of some sort. I was finding all sorts of obscure old Macintosh models ranging from the Lisa to the Bondi iMac. I was most interested in the old beige box ones. They only had one power cord available, so I kept plugging each one in individually to see if it work. Every single one of them gave me the Sad Mac chimes, which scared the crap out of me when I got my first one around age 9 and still scares me some to this day.

I'll be honest, I find most of these hard to believe, though that just goes to show how mundane most of my dreams happen to be.

Most of the dreams I have are because of four primary driving forces:

• Wanting to have a better life overall..
• Having spend a whole life playing video games and watching TV.
• Never having done things anyone else likely did already by the time he or she turned 27 (and soon I'll be 28).
• Nostalgia.

I thought that lobster suit dream was the weirdest dream I ever had and ever will have, but last night, my brain proved me wrong. Oh, so wrong.

It started off with me having an at-home theater so I could watch Minions, but my brother decided to go to the normal theater, which is odd, since he's in college right now. So then other people started joining the theater, including a girl that sat right next to me. I sort of acted shy around her, and she was disappointed. Presumably, she had a crush on me.

So then after I watched the movie... off-screen... I played Cookie Clicker, which now had Minion-based buildings. The buildings tooltip mentioned something about the apocalypse. I bought one, and then an upgrade appeared, then I bought that. Then my dream panned away from the earth, and into a platform, presumably on the minion building. Everyone on the platform was crying, and sad music was playing in the background. The world shattered (By the way, I wasn't on the platform, so I'm pretty sure I know what happened to me.) but then a unicorn appeared out of nowhere and said that those with a good heart were saved, including me, Thrall and... a huge line of trombones. But then intense music started playing, hinting at a final battle of sorts (Imagine if it was Microsoft again), but the dream ended before it could happen.

I will be amazed if I have a dream weirder than that.

Last night, I dreamed that there was a murder in the deli of the store I work in. And my brother (who is a coworker of mine in real life) and I were assigned by management to investigate and find the killer.

However, we never did, because my brother got distracted and left. I was also distracted, but by my crush, who had started stroking my arm with her finger.

Guess that's what I get for watching Detective Conan and thinking about work before bed.

Man I'm glad I found this thread. I had this dream a while back and have been really wanting to put it somewhere for people to see it besides just telling my friends about it.

So I had this dream about a non-canon Five Nights At Freddy's spin-off game called Five Nights In Space. Now, I feel I should preface this by mentioning that most of the time when I dream the dream just switches around between different things at a rapid pace that have absolutely no bearing to each other, like an episode of Robot Chicken; also I tend to forget most of the things I dream. This dream however managed to be one of the odd ones out by staying on the topic for the whole dream and letting me remember it; it was also incredibly detailed, letting me know an awful lot about how this spin-off worked.

Another disclaimer perhaps worth mentioning is that I have not played any of the Five Nights At Freddy's games; I've only watched the let's plays of them that Markiplier did. (Also from here on I'm just going to shorten it to FNAF for ease.)

Now, in terms of overall gameplay, this game seemed more or less true to the style of FNAF: Multitasking your attention to a number of different things in order to avoid the animatronics jumping out at you. However, other than that and the animatronic characters themselves, this game had nothing in common with the official FNAF games.

First the premise/story: In this game, it's a few centuries into the future, and mankind has since abandoned Earth to pretty much wander about space; unfortunately, the animatronics are still haunted, and followed them. Like the official games, for a six hour period of every 24 hours (Ostensibly midnight to 6 AM, however off Earth that has no real bearing.) the animatronics become active. While active, they do their best to murder every human being in the same ship or space station that they're in; if there are no humans there when they become active, they straight up teleport to another one, pretty much by ghost magic. They remain in this active murder stage until either six hours has passed, or every human in the ship or station is dead. Humanity has tried several times to destroy or exorcise the animatronics, but it's always failed; somehow the animatronics just rebuild themselves, sometimes taking a while and sometimes in mere moments, depending on what day of the week it is.

So since they can't be destroyed and have been going on an otherwise unstoppable killing spree, somebody had to come up with a solution. That solution was a ramshackle space station built to house the animatronics that would have one person banished to it at all times; that way, since the animatronics only teleport if there's nobody for them to murder where they are, the animatronics can never murder more than one person a day. You play as the latest sacrifice thrown into the space station, and try to stay alive for as long as you can.

The gameplay: Unlike the official FNAF games, this game played like a first person shooter; you could look around and move freely, and you're even armed, but only with a hefty wrench, Bioshock style. However, like the official FNAF games you are still confined to one room; it's a rectangular room with a 2:3 width:length ratio, and it takes about three seconds to run from one wall to the opposite across the width, and four and a half seconds to run from one wall to the opposite across the length. So it's not a terribly big room. The room's overall aesthetic is somewhat rusted and bolted metal; very Used Future. There are four large vent openings spaced evenly in the two long walls; you can't enter these, but you wouldn't want to anyway because each one goes down to a holding cell for one of the animatronics. Each of these vent openings has next to it a screen which shows a feed from a camera inside the holding cell, so you can run up and see what the animatronic there is doing; then each also has one or two buttons that activate different means of defense against the animatronics. Some only delay them while some can stop them entirely, but all of them drain on a power meter to different degrees while they're on; if none of the defenses are on, the power meter will slowly recharge.

In addition to the vents, there is also a pit towards one end of the room which goes straight down to where one of the animatronics is; it also has a camera screen and a button to activate a defensive measure. Finally at the opposite end of the room mounted directly in the wall is the final animatronic; there's no screen or defense measures against it, because it's already in the room with you, just kept in place with large metal restraints. It will eventually break free of the restraints, (During the nights in which it's active.) but before it does you have the option to run up to it and whack it with your wrench before it can retaliate, either weakening it so it'll be easier to defeat when it does break free, or shutting it down before it can break free and resetting its progress towards breaking free.

Now if any of the animatronics get into the room with you, or the one restrained on the wall breaks free, you aren't instantly dead; but you can't just rush them down and beat them with your wrench, because in a head to head fight they will kill you. Instead what you're supposed to do is run away from them, hitting them with your wrench when you get the chance until they break down and are forced to reset. Of course you have to do this while also trying to keep track of the rest of them and the defenses to keep them out of the room, because while it's fairly easy to avoid just one of the animatronics, most of them have differing behaviors while chasing you that can compliment each other into making them nearly impossible to avoid. So it's in your best interests to keep the animatronics out of the room as much as possible. As for the animatronics, there's Freddy, Chica, Bonnie, Foxy, Mangle, and Golden Freddy, who in this game is a physical animatronic and not some weird ghost thing, for some reason. Also why Foxy and Mangle are separate but there's still only one version of Chica, Bonnie, and Freddy, (sort of) I can only chalk up to dream logic. I'll now go over each one with all the details I can remember.

Freddy: Freddy is one of the animatronics located down a vent, and is essentially the simplest animatronic in this game, being the first to be fully active; as opposed to the official FNAF games where it's usually the opposite for Freddy. Freddy's visual design is mostly reminiscent of his toy version from FNAF 2, and for some reason he's wearing a set of farmer-style overalls. The defenses against him I don't entirely remember; I think it's two buttons, both of which activate a closed vent door, one halfway through the vent and one just at the entrance to the room you're in, and obviously the one halfway only stops him if he isn't already past it. Both of them he'll either eventually force open or give up and go back to his holding area, depending on his current difficulty for that night. If he gets in the room, he just rushes straight towards you at all times with nothing fancy, but he also runs a bit slower than you which means you can keep away from him if you keep circling around the edge of the room.

Chica: One of the next to be active, Chica is also located down one of the vents. Chica's visual design is for some reason a chibi version of the toy Chica from FNAF 2, standing around half your height, however with a sinister expression; she's also wielding a butcher knife, though this doesn't seem to have any bearing on the actual game mechanics. I don't remember the defenses against her at all, unfortunately. If she gets into the room, she can actually run slightly faster than you, but she won't just rush straight at you unless you stop moving or run towards her; instead she will move to one side of you, keeping a bit of distance, and try to match your movement. Since she'll rush you if you move towards her or stop, the only way to avoid her entirely is to keep moving and not move in the direction she's in, which obviously can get a bit tricky since you need to keep checking screens and defenses all around the room.

Mangle: Also one of the next active, Mangle is likewise located down one of the vents. Mangle's visual design seemed to me to be what Mangle was supposed to be originally; basically a feminine, white and pink colored Foxy in the toy animatronic style. There were two defenses against her; one was a vent door like the ones against Freddy, located halfway down the vent that she would interact with much the same way Freddy does. The second defense was a special powerful magnet located in the back of her holding cell; when activated it would drain through the power meter quickly, but would grab Mangle as long as she was in either the cell or the vent, even if she was about to enter the room. Once it grabbed her, it would pull her back and slam her against the back wall of the cell, tearing her into pieces. This made Mangle one of the animatronics you could actually destroy before they got into the room, forcing her to rebuild before she could try to get at you again. If she did get into the room, Mangle would be identical to Chica in both movement speed and overall attack pattern. If Mangle and Chica got into the room at the same time, they would attempt to stay on opposite sides of you, limiting your choices of movement even further.

Bonnie: Coming active later in the week than Chica and Mangle, Bonnie is the last of the animatronics located down one of the vents. His visual design is the same as Freddy's, including the seemingly pointless farmer overalls. Like Chica, I don't remember the defenses against him at all, unfortunately. If he got in the room with you, he would run a lot faster than you, but would specifically try to get in front of you and rush you down head on, meaning the only way to avoid him is to keep moving and change direction rapidly.

Foxy: Coming active after Bonnie, Foxy is the animatronic located down the pit towards one end of the room. Foxy is the only one whose visual design seemed to be straight from one of the official FNAF games, looking pretty much exactly like he did in FNAF 2. There's only one defense against Foxy, but it's perhaps the most effective defense in the game. At the bottom of the pit Foxy sits asleep on top of a grate until he becomes active; underneath this grate is a running stream of molten metal. Activating the defense will open the grate and drop Foxy into the molten metal, destroying him instantly and forcing him to rebuild. However, the defense only works while he's still sitting on the grate; the moment he becomes active and starts to climb up the walls of the pit, the defense no longer works. If Foxy enters the room with you, he does like Freddy and just rushes straight at you, slightly slower than you. However unlike Freddy, Foxy has ranged attacks to use against you, namely dual flamethrowers located in his mouth, (for some reason) and the small bombs he can chuck at you. (again, for some reason) In order to avoid these ranged attacks, you have to change the direction you're moving to either side very often, which makes Foxy combo well with Chica and/or Mangle.

Golden Freddy: The last animatronic to become active during the week, Golden Freddy is the one restrained against the wall in the room with you already. Golden Freddy's visual design is mostly like his in FNAF 1, just as an actual animatronic, and also huge, towering well over the height of your character. As mentioned, you can run up to him and whack him with the wrench while he's still restrained to the wall, but Golden Freddy is also the toughest of the animatronics and takes several hits to break him down. Also when he's on a higher difficulty, he has a nasty tendency to pretend he hasn't broken free yet when he actually has, and waits for you to run up to him so he can get a free hit on you instead of the other way around. If Golden Freddy does become free, he functions exactly the same as Freddy in terms of speed and the way he chases you, just with the difference of being a lot harder to bring down and dealing a lot more damage to you if he hits you; in addition his hits will knock you back several feet, which could lead to an instant death if that also throws you towards another animatronic.

Other notes: Like the official FNAF games, the seventh night is a custom night where you can set your own difficulty, with all six of the animatronics having a 1-20 difficulty range. The game also apparently included a way to unlock the seventh night without having to beat the rest of the game first, if you input a certain combination of keys in the main menu. Lastly, the seventh night menu screen has a secret option in it; the background for the menu screen is that same style of rusted and bolted metal like the room in the game. One of the bolts in the background can be clicked, turning it into an animatronic eye which opens up to look at you. The eye being open means that a special game option has been toggled on, which will have you play through a full seven nights in a row, all having whatever difficultly settings on the animatronics that you set on the menu. Meaning that the hardest challenge for this FNAF spinoff is a 20/20/20/20/20/20 mode that lasts for 42 in-game hours, with a room reset every 6 in-game hours.

My dream never specified what happens if you actually manage to beat the game, or whether or not your character survives.

It was a rainy morning, and I was with a parasol in front of what used to be my elementary school. Several people were being recruited for military servie. Of course I didn't want to go, so I was hiding in a place not many would imagine me being. At some point the dream changed: It was still raining, but I was in the house and I was playing Splatoon online.

All I can remember is being on a ship out at sea in a stormy night...and my phone started ringing. The scene mutated to inside my house as soon as I ran for the phone. Then I ran into my room and covered my ears, and came out and cleared out a bit of my phone's memory on the phone machine.

I found some NSFW manga, used the power of bikinis and crowds to climb a mountain, and was told that there are charters kilometers long.

The dream involved a man heavily in debt. He came to me (in my bedroom) where he asks me to help him deal with debt. I have no idea how, but I mention the space loan system. However, they have ridiculous interest rates that you'll be even more in debt than you were before. He demands to tell me how to get them. Before i can stop them, he calls in Freiza from DBZ who will give him the loan. The guy disappears, but my brother walks in and trips and hits Freixa. Freiza gets upset, and tells my brother that he's going to summon a space assassin to kill him, and then teleports away. My brother then goes to mow the lawn, and i tell him to keep in mind that a space assassin is after him.

Part 1. i was in a world of cartoons that was SUPPOSED to make no sense after the first 30 seconds but i made sense of it because dream-me is awesome. I met a teacher there, Mrs. White, and upon her blackboard were basic shapes and symbols, and I correctly guessed that this was the heart of the cartoon world because basic shapes are how everything is made. She erased them from the board and started to decay, starting with her feet. (it was localized destruction.) I wouldn’t have that and frantically looked for a new piece of paper to save her–the board was all smudged with ink–and used notebook paper. I TRIED to recreate her exactly but since i wasn’t a very good drawer I ended up making her a teacher SUPERHERO instead named Mrs. Gardener. she had “Optimus Prime wings” as in a back-cape accessory that looked like the top half of Optimus Prime’s body, complete with head. She also experienced memory conflict due to two sets of memories, which i was extremely sorry for. But eventually she didn’t seem to mind, and we found out that being a teacher WAS her superpower.

part 2. Using a local cafe/some kid’s bedroom as a hideout (she and her sister were also superheroes, even if we didn’t always get along) I and 4 others decided to form a superhero team. There were 2 sisters, one brother, and 2 unrelated people; me and for some reason Ryou Bakura. We all had not-that-useful powers, which i don’t remember too much of, sadly. but the REALLY weird thing was the constant sense of deja vu–these events had ALREADY HAPPENED and we were torn between changing what happened too much and letting things take their course. I remember one other member, who we turned down at first, was a sentient firefly named Sparkle. Her power was to glow really, really bright, and this time around we accepted her immediately because of remembering a time she saved our lives in the previous timeline. After a brief interruption during which GI Joe and Cobra were fighting (apparently it was 80’s cartoon world now), we helped capture a cobra soldier with a laser minigun. (as the brother pointed out, lasers may not be bullets, but they can still kill you.) Once he was taken away we thought about what to do next and them realized something big.

part 3. One of our enemies in the original timeline was a kid named David. He befriended us at first in a quest to gain a magical rock at a beach inside a forest, which was carved with a green, glowing symbol of some kinda that would only enhance his powers. Also, he could turn into a horse and wanted to flirt with the older sister. (little sis wouldn’t let him, especially once he was revealed as a bad guy.) At first we wanted to just leave him alone, as we had no desire to be tricked again, but then we realized that letting him be would just mean he’d find the rock on his own and become unstoppable. So we reluctantly went there first to find it. the forest was huge and full of many portals to other places, only some of which made sense. we remembered where the beach was and set off, but we found David was already there, and kinda got into a fight. i think the older sister, who liked fashion, could control articles of clothing–not tearing them off, but making them stretch to trap things. So we had a fight, i got the rock, and we tricked him by throwing a different, non-magical rock to another location in the hopes he’d go after it. Which he did.

part 4. Little sis broke the rock in half and it crumbled into green dust using semi-super strength. We started to leave the forest. the colors gradually become brighter as we entered the world of the living–i don’t know WHAT that forest was, but it sure wasn’t on this plane of reality. Suddenly we saw, behind us, a portal we’d NEVER seen before. At first it showed us our reflections in black-and-white, which was ESPECIALLY weird since we were so close to reality. but then it changed to show people and places we’d love to see/go to. to me it led to wonderland but everyone saw something different. there was a little buy with blue hair and brown eyes and a white shirt/robe in front of the door, but he wasn’t real, he was like a fortune-telling machine. i sensed an aura of death around the place and had to hold everyone back from going in even as the visions got more and more tempting for each of us. ‘DON’T YOU SEE IT’S ALL A TRICK? YOU’LL DIE!“ They were inches away from it when they snapped out of it, and after a couple minutes of recovery we turned around and David was there, entranced by it.

Ryou: David? What do YOU see? (I think his power was to coax someone into doing something they were already planning to do anyway.)

He looked, we all looked, and we saw him in the middle of a (genuine) romance with the older sister. We just kinda stepped aside and watched as he walked through it. It seemed to swallow him up. There was no sign of what happened on the other side but we all felt this…. rush of wind or something, and the fortune-telling boy spat out a card. “Here lies David, Died 1908 of overexposure to a disease.”

We all got the heck out of there. And then Pegasus and Yami Yugi were in this weird void and said something, I don’t remember what, and Ryou secretly thought the portal was the greatest thing he’d ever seen. After a a quick snack break at the cafe, I woke up.

I was watching a top ten video of what was apparently the most overrated games of all time. The guy on the video listed all three sequels to a game at some point. My dream ended after the third one, so it might've been my dream being ridiculously frustrated at the guy's stupidity, so it just went away from the video.

Were those fnaf by any chance? Just guessing~

Nah. They were just some sort of crappy-looking flash games.

I had some of the strangest dreams I've had in a while.

It started off pretty weird. Winnie The Pooh and friends were invited to go on a road trip by a suspicious looking man. They wound up going and were suspected to some extremely surreal landscapes and people that was almost scary. They wound up escaping and running back to the Hundred Acre Wood, but in the process, Tigger lost a prized possession of his. Pooh and the gang begin searching all over the place for it. At one point, Pooh donned a thick raincoat and waded into a cave by the ocean in search of the object.

At this point the "camera" went under water, and the dream abruptly switched to a story about a sardine that was inept at keeping the school he was leading out of trouble. (I actually took part as a swimmer observing this.) After repeated failures which resulted in some sardines being eaten by other creatures, they demoted him and kicked him out of the school. The sardine sadly went off to an island, and it was there that he bumped into a group of mermaids. (What is it about my dreams and mermaids lately?) Fortunately, they were genuinely good mermaids more interested in not only helping the sardine, but also the fandoms they were a part of. (One was a Doctor Who fangirl, another was a Steven Universe fan, etc.) They agreed to become the body guards of the school of sardines.

I reckon they went on to live happily ever after, but the dream wasn't over yet. I started swimming away when I came across a sleeping humpback whale. Upon looking at her, I became a humpback whale, too. She woke up, and it was love at first sight. We hit off pretty well, maybe too well, because before I knew it...well...let's just say we quickly moved beyond just kissing each other.

At that point I woke up to post the dream on this very thread, but every thread was talking about Yoshi's Island now, for some reason. I woke up again and went downstairs only to find that it was 4am. But then I woke up again and this time I went with my mom to a Target in Texas. (It wasn't a very long drive despite the fact I don't live very close to Texas.) While there, I found new miniature amiibo that worked every bit as well as normal ones, and even found ones of the Koopalings and a stack of Yoshis. Then I tried a new Yoshi's Island game which had a mechanic of strange stones scattered around the island that affected the Yoshis in unusual ways upon contact. I remember there being stones that enabled them to phase through walls and another one that would turn a Yoshi into a damage-resistant zombie. It also had a level editor. It was after that that I woke up again, this time for real. (Thinking the game was an interesting idea.)

I can't believe I just had a dream where I fell in love with a whale and wound up mating/having sex with her. Stuff like that usually never happens in my dreams. (At least I was already a whale, too.) Should I be worried?

The single stupidest dream I ever had involved a woman having sex with... a box of cereal. (It was Sugar Crisp.)

Do you remember what Tigger lost or if he found it?

i was basically in jurassic park, spending a large amount of time staying indoors, and away from windows as the t-rex outside was pretty hungry.

and then there was the sexy female companion and i having a nice Fade to Black afterwards. didn't make sense but whatever.

Not really. I think it might have been his locket from The Tigger Movie, but I can't completely remember. Once the sardines plot started, all the Pooh stuff was dropped for the rest of the night, so I have no idea if they ever found Tigger's missing object.

As I said, the thing that stuck out the most to me was me turning into a whale and mating with a female whale.
