I have _got_ to stop binging on candy before bed! Jeebus, I tucked into a box of salt-water taffy I got as a gift, while watching some episode of _House_ and then some ad for _Bones_ came on. I remember thinking to myself “See? That guy who used to play Angel is way more believable as the cop guy. His voice was always too dorky for a brooding vampire dude.” Then there was some advertisement on TV for what look like a new TV series called “Vampire Diaries” that I assume is a _Twilight_ rip-off. So with those two ingredients stirred up with an overly large dose of taffy (I’m pretty sure the “serving size” was smaller than “entire box”) and - boy howdy! - did I ever have a weird dream! At first I thought it was cool. Hey, it’s that Angel guy! Maybe I’m a vampire too! But nope. I’m not a vamp, I have no fangs. So fine, I figured that this dream plot had me as one of his human side-kick friends… Cool, I’m a demon hunter! Then I sort of realized that no… I was his _boyfriend_ :eek: Man, how stressful is that? Here I am all scared because I’m going to have to break up with him, due to me being straight and all, and he’s gonna get all broken hearted, pissed off, and chompy. So, anyone else have any gay dreams about celebrities? :: crickets :: Um… so it’s just me then? ---

I once had a dream I was dating a real angel. He was cute, with dark hair. ---

Yeah, but if you DON’T break up with him, the results will be even more evil and chompy… after you sleep with him, of course. ---

No gay dreams (I mean, he isn’t female, isn’t he?) but I once woke up from a horrid nightmare involving having Tom Cruise as a coworker. I’ve forgotten the details, thankfully… ---

Nothing erotic, but I once had a dream that I was chillin’ with friends, including my good childhood friend Brad Pitt. ---

And I’m a vegetarian!!! ETA: > [@tdn](#): > > Nothing erotic, but I once had a dream that I was chillin’ with friends, including my good childhood friend Brad Pitt. Is it weird that this dream wasn’t erotic either? Angel was all happy and smiley, and coo-cooey, and then I realized he thought I was his boyfriend and Great Googly Moogly was it ever going to get awkward! I’d thought were were hanging out, talking football and demon killing, but Captain Forehead thought it was a date. Awwwwwwkward! And when I woke up in the morning I was all embarrassed when I was talking to my SO because I thought she’d be mad that I accidentally led the dude on. ---

Regularly. But then being gay anyway it didn’t traumatize me. 😉 Ive also had dreams where I was straight or a woman or basically myself in a female body and those were strange enough with or without a celeb in the mix. ---

Not a gay dream but something similar. Somehow I got befriended by John Wayne Gacy. And for reasons I do not understand, JWG wanted to take me under his wing and show me how to be a serial killer. So basically I had to follow the guy around and watch him terrorize people as he gave me step by step instructions on how to do it myself. Of course, I didn’t have the balls to tell him I’m not batshit crazy like he is. Thank Og I woke up from that dream fairly quickly. [[shivers]] ---

Angel wasn’t on House, Chuck Hagel was. ---

Oh, wait, I get it now. Chuck Hagel looks like the minor evil detective character on House, and Angel looks a bit like the main cop character on Bones. Gotcha. ---

The only dream I had that involved someone famous was that one where my friends and I had to hunt down Hitler, after chasing him through a time machine into the Pre-Columbian American Southwest. Nothing gay there. But I did once have a dream where I had a woman’s body. Having boobs and a vagina was _very_ strange to say the least.
