RE: "Seriously brain, what the hell?" A Thread For Weird Dreams and Nightmares
01-31-2016, 02:31 PM
I had a bunch of weird dreams last night; I just remember two salient bits from them.
One of them was that there was a race to deliver some random item to someone living in the probably fictional town of Tinder, Michigan, and there were two other people besides me who were racing to do it. Why was there a race, I don't know. Anyway, while stopping for gas right near the end (because even in dreams, cars can't go forever), I looked across the highway, and saw a little tiny pillar of black smoke across the night sky, and as the cars continue to fill up, the smoke turned into a raging forest fire, threatening not only our goal, but another nearby town. When I pointed that out to one of the other drivers, they said that the other town was Flint. So I guess things really go up in flames fast when they are near Flint and Tinder.
Apparently, the entire dream was just set up for that one bad pun
The second dream was a bunch of people who I was hanging out with coming up with an idea for... a Seinfeld episode (I blame Gime for streaming Bee Movie for this). Seinfeld was apparently trapped in his apartment, which was on fire. And to escape from the burning apartment, which may have only been some food on fire and not actually in any danger of burning down, he skipped over the rational ideas of putting the fire out, calling 911, or just walking out the unlocked front door behind him, to try and jump out a window on the second floor. A bunch of other stupid things happened, but it ended with secret government agents coming in and revealing that mind control chips actually do exist, but they aren't used on everyone. Fortunately, Seinfeld is one of the people whom it is used on, and so they knocked him out so they could reprogram him. I just remember that the most important change they made was making him think that you are supposed to drive on the left side of the road.
