OK, if this isn’t mundane and pointless, I don’t know what is. I almost never remember my dreams, but as I was reading the SDMB today I remembered a fragment of one I had recently which was quite disturbing. All I remember is that I was at a Dopefest or some such thing and discovered that the SDMB’s own pepperlandgirl was actually a teenage boy.
In the rare instances where I do remember my dreams I can almost always pinpoint exactly why I dreamed what I did. They almost always relate pretty directly to something I’ve been thinking about recently. But this one came out of nowhere. I’ve never been to a Dopefest. I’ve seen (and enjoyed) pepperlandgirl’s postings many times, but she’s not someone I’d immediately think of when I think about the SDMB. I don’t have any idea what she looks like or anything much about her (no Doper crush happening here!) so I can’t even begin to imagine why I’d dream that she was actually a teenage boy.
This is all just too strange, so naturally I had to post it in MPSIMS. I guess this is just further evidence (yeah, like we needed more) that sometimes those random neural firings can produce some very bizarre effects.
Two nights ago, I dreamed that Libertarian was explaining to me why people who keep their telephones close to their radios on their bedside table are more likely to commit suicide than people whose phones are kept far away from their radios. It made sense at the time, although I can no longer remember the reason.
I’ve never met Lib, so it was a really weird dream. It was my first ever Dope dream. Just Lib fighting ignorance in my unconscious mind.
I don’t know what to make of plg being a teenage boy though. Is her phone close to her radio?
Names can be deceiving, One doper at the Minnesota porkdope had a very female sounding name, but turned out to be a 35 year old male. His name was NurseCarmen.
I had a SDMB dream last night - my first one ever. I dreamed that instead of using computers to access the boards, we used magic books. And the books were slow, so the admins upgraded to bigger books with built in dictionaries. Everyone who wanted to read the boards had to gather together in this big room (like a cafeteria) and check out a book. The new, upgraded books weren’t working well for most people because only a few people could figure out how to use them. Weird.
Oh, good! I feel better now. Not only am I not the only one to have had a weird SDMB dream, but I’m not even the only one to have done so in the last day or two. It’s good to know I’m among fellow weirdos. Heh…
I had a dream a while back that I was at a MegaDopeFest and got to meet Cecil Adams. I was the only surprised and shocked that he looked just like Jeb Bush.
In a similar thread a while back, I described an odd dream I had that featured a children’s book written by OpalCat. But that was the extent of the SDMB connection in the dream, if I recall correctly.
A couple of weeks ago, I had this dream that I was staying at this summer camp, and iampunha came by and stole my entire Barbie collection. I was really pissed!
