Looking at the notes, I've had a variety of the ones mentioned, but not too frequently. Like the losing-teeth one, that's just been a couple times, but it was a memorably weird variation once, they softened and a whole arch of them split off along a single line. Also, someone mentioned "driving a car from the back seat"--that's another "few times" one, as well as, at least once, driving from the roof using some absurd jury-rig for the controls. However, those weren't nightmarish just because of that; I was always, at first, too confident about it, but the controls got sloppier and sloppier and I quickly found myself running out of control.

I've also had dreams where I was driving normally and the same thing happened. I think the car nightmares, generally, are part of a larger pattern--my most typical "uncommon stress dream" is about malfunctions of any and all sorts. I've had more than my share of unrecoverable-computer dreams, and, just a couple nights ago, dreamt of water leaks, in multiple places in a house, that kept getting worse and worse even as I tried to fix them.

everyone has dreams about being lost at school, late to work, cant find bathroom etc but whats yalls most common Uncommon stress dream. ill always have dreams about having various problems with my fish tank

Bir gün her şey çok güzel olacak. ama o' gün geldiğin de nice papatyalar filizlenecek yüzümüze atılan o' bir avuç toprağın içinden..

One day everything dies..

The maddest I have ever been about a dream:

I'm in a hotel with this gorgeous man. The hotel is amazing, I've never been anywhere that fancy, big suite, one of those little swim-out cave pool things. Things are just about to get interesting...

And I wake up. OK, check the time, bathroom, back to sleep.

...and the hotel has been invaded by aliens. Clothes back on, run outside, have to go fight off an alien invasion. And by the time we've defeated them, my alarm is going off.

The levels of cockblocked.

Last night I had a dream where the Doctor had to use a Time Bagel because their TARDIS wasn't working properly. It was like a Time Ring but it was a Bagel. It had sesame seeds on it when it went into the future and poppy seeds on it when it went into the past.

And then the Master captured the Doctor and tied them up and ate their Bagel and I woke up.

Mirror - Commission

Lost in my dreams, I somehow cross at the traffic signals, bumping into street lamps or people, yet moving onward, exuding fumes of beer and grime, yet smiling, because my briefcase is full of books and that very night I expect them to tell me things about myself I don't know.

The perfect clarity of all the images we see in dreams which is the precondition of our unquestioning belief in their reality again reminds us of conditions pertaining to earlier mankind, in whom hallucination was extraordinarily common and sometimes seized hold on whole communities, whole peoples at the same time. Thus: in sleep and dreams we repeat once again the curriculum of earlier mankind.

Inktober Day 13 - Horizon

[letteredlettered]

Oh, thunder only happens when it's rainin' Players only love you when they're playin' Say women, they will come and they will go

In the room they talk of Michelangelo

[drmorbius12]

Smoke rises on a cold wind

From a thousand hearts burning

Forever locked in blind faith

Behind a curtain of sorrows

Woven in tears and broken dreams

Carried upward toward an

Empty sky colored in deep blue

Sadness, unseen, unheard,

Alone
