If its done with intent to rape, it means you shoot the bitch. That’s my policy.

Sex.  
It has to do with sex.  
If you dream of Zeppelins, it _also_ has to do with Sex.  
Butterfly dream?  
Yup.  
Sex.

In fact, it’s all pretty much about Sex.

You should tell them to get a privacy fence. These little marital tiffs should be kept private.

"To dream of an axe symbolizes conflict in your life that is blunt, messy, uncaring, and cold. You may be experiencing a situation or person in your life that makes you feel like they don’t care about anything your feeling, and doesn’t mind telling you about all your flaws or weaknesses.

An axe is something you may dream when a friendship goes sour and both sides treat to each other with a total lack of respect. An axe can reflect unwelcome brutal honesty, backstabbing, or passive aggressiveness that two people are well aware of. " Taken from [dreambible.com](http://www.dreambible.com)

You were sleepwalking and actually saw her chasing him with an axe. By now you’re an accomplice because you didn’t notify the police.

You’d better assume a new identity… Maybe Southern Piper…
