Years ago I tried lucid dreaming and after a few attempts it kinda worked. I didn’t like it though. Dreams shouldn’t be controlled, otherwise they’re not really dreams. 

I just want to do one and then be done with it.

That was my plan. Thing is, since doing that, to this day I involuntarily experience lucid dreaming every so often. It’s like something was unlocked. Something else was triggered by the intentional lucid dreaming, that being parasomnia. I frequently sleepwalk and sleep-talk, laugh and cry and sometimes even eat while asleep. It’s not ideal. 

I often lucid dream, mainly when napping or whm I've not quite woken up.  For me it just means I'm cognisant of the dream and can continue it in the direction I like, but often following the same logic.  Not overly exciting tbh!

Notice something in common with your posts? No? I’ll tell you both then (and this applies to @AzzKikA and @Demon Dynasty as well) you all hung [censored] on WCW! Two words… common denominator. Let this be a lesson to all of you! That is all.

yeah nah that’s probs not the reason for approval by a mod. I just like telling you blokes off. It’s fun. 🥳🙃😜

Dreams are fascinating when they’re not in our control which is what I don’t find appealing about lucid dreaming.

For mine, not remembering 90% of dreams is disappointing.

Holy smokes, a gal doesn’t grace Demonland with her presence for a couple of hours and comes back to a veritable den of iniquity, with her good self the main target of such disparagement.

This thread would be immediately shut down if the mods ever bothered to read it, which they don’t since they’re not masochists. As far as I know, that is

So you're saying that gif isn't an accurate representation of your fine self? Me thinks someone's pants are on fire 🤔

Luci, your post is underlined by a number of assumptions - none  of which is complimentary to my good self.

Nonetheless , my companion was defrocked Demonlander Biffen, a noted abuser of drugs and alcohol. So attempting to hide the bottle would most certainly have ended in a violent altercation.

As to the polystyrene cup - I have no recollection - but, be assured, it was not used for any form of libation.

au contraire, I suspect your suit of armour is impenetrable! 🙂

But really, coffee served in polystyrene cups inside a cafe😮.  OMG, right there a line was crossed by the establishment.

At least they served the red wine in a glass; a stemmed glass at that!  Some standards must be maintained!

Isn't a touch of green beauty in an otherwise bland urban moonscape enough?

Defrocked !!!! FFS

Find an online dictionary.

I didn't know Biffen was frocked.

There's green beauty in the local fruit shop. Eat you greens.

You want ME to find an online dictionary so you can get me to tell you what egregious means. Lazy so and so.

Remembering dreams is surprisingly easy to train for. Keep a notebook by the bed. Before you settle to sleep, look at it, think about it, and even say out loud a few times 'I will write my dreams down in the morning'. Then in the morning even if you have only the vaguest fog of a few images, write those down.

In as little as a week you will be remembering dreams in astonishing detail. I did this as an exercise in a psychology course and by week three was remembering five dreams every morning with enough clarity to make notes on all of them.

The good news is that when you stop the habit you also stop remembering the dream. It's a pretty wild rabbit hole you might not want to stay down!

What is going on here?

I can't understand any of it.

Uncle, please post and insult me, at least that is easy to comprehend.

BTW, any of you Dees fans going up to the GC to watch both the Dees and  Casey play?

Nooo! Poles are wonderful folk! You just need to be patient since they sometimes take a while to warm to you. My son lives in Poland and in 2020 Covid turned my 3-week visit into eight months. I eventually won the good folk of Warsaw over. By attrition. I wore the poor buggers down. 😁

It also helps to learn the basics of the Polish language. I learned this the hard way: I unwittingly accepted a marriage proposal, and if not for my son’s fiancé overhearing and quickly stepping in, I’d be a staruszka cooking pierogi for her ancient old husband right now instead of being in the No T$ thread, where I belong.

I’ll keep an eye out for you, first on the AFL site for Casey and then Fox Footy for the Seniors.

I hear the Broadbeach Woolies has a special on past used by date, wine casks. It might be a nice gesture to get some for Uncle Bitter. I am sure he would appreciate it.

I am half Polish, as my late dad was born there.

Smacks of stalker-ish behaviour but ok.

Kidding. I’ll be in the front row probs on floggers. That’s for the main game. Likewise for Casey, I think. There won’t be as many of us, being that not everyone can attend every interstate match.
