The weirdest thing just happened

Explanations of that sort make more and more sense to me these days.

I saw on an episode of Batman: The Animated Series that you can't read things when you're asleep, and that factoid has been swimming around in my head ever since. So it's a little bit strange that every once in a while when I'm dreaming I'll read something, and then step out of the the - uh narrative space of the dream - and say to myself "Hey! I'm reading! Proves YOU wrong, Batman." Whenever I wake up I find it vaguely disconcerting that that I have PoMo dreams that break the fourth wall and give a wink and a nod to the audience...the audience being exclusively me...

Does this make any sense? If not, I guess what I'm trying to say is don't trust any non-Adam West Batmans.

dude - i *totally* remember that episode and i get the same sense of smarmy satisfation when i've read something in my dreams. i'm glad i'm not the only one who was *permanently damaged*. [i think about it at least once a month... terrible...]

Wow, that's the most esoteric shared experience ever

Batman: the Animated Series was amazing. I had a crush on that cute jester character.

And yeah! That totally makes sense. I, the audience and the ... author, was totally duped. The fact that I so-called "rationally" decided that the dream was reality is kind of fucking with me.

when i was younger i read this dime-self-help book about self hypno techniques and lucid dreams, and totally mastered it on a lower level. it's actually not that hard to do.

My fave dream construction I still manage to concoct for myself once in a while, and bcz it's familiarly lucid i can control stuff whenever i dream that scene again.

pretty fun times, i can describe it in better detail sometime in person. everyone should try!

Johnny, the phrase "totally mastered it on a lower level" is so ridiculously you it's almost not funny.

I've only had what I would call totally "lucid" dreaming on a few occasions, and mostly by accident. When it happens, the situation and context are out of my control, but my reactions to the things happening are with the knowledge that it's a dream and that I have the power to do whatever I want.
So I guess that would be a "lower-level" of lucid dreaming too.

This time though, I thought I was lucid, but in reality I wasn't. The dream WAS lucidity!

the mind is a wonderful thing, it can suck you into alternate dimentions through dreams, tripouts.

other places, melting faces.
