My most recent ones have been where I've been in rehearsal for a play, opening night comes up, I walk on stage, and just completely blank on my lines, so I apologize to the audience, walk out of the theater, and then have to start a new life because I can't face anyone I ever knew ever again. Did you ever act in plays at school? I've had dreams where I'm backstage before a performance looking for a script b/c I can't remember my lines. I was in some plays in high school. Yep, I actually just finished my most recent show about two weeks ago, so that's explains the most recent edition. I have this dream about three times a year though, regardless of whether I'm in a show at the time.

I used to get that all the time in high school when I was in shows. Still get it every once in a rare while.

Had a dream I was at Thalia Hall for Local Natives, the group I was with wanted to leave after "Sun Hands" and we had a copy of the setlist in hand...when we realized it was still a few songs away, I was able to pull out a remote and skip the next several songs of the bands set to get to Sun Hands.

Had a dream I was in Nashville for that work conference in June. We had an open day before everything started up the next day.
For some reason I had the brilliant idea to fly to London and visit my friends in Nottingham, using my company card because my rationale was it was during the conference and therefore could be expensed.
Then I get there and after being at my friend's for like 3 hours was like ok time to head back. So I'm looking up flights to get back and there is absolutely none that get me there without missing a good portion of the conference.
Then it hits me not only am I going to miss the conference I was a fucking idiot for thinking I could expense a trip to Europe like that. I then tried to see if I could fly out of Paris to make it on time. Then I woke up. Was absolutely thrilled to be in my own bed.

i had a dream that i was booking a house show for hiss golden messenger in pittsburgh, but he had just been accused of sexual assault. so i was investigating the claims and wondering if we should even book the show. and then he showed up at my house. i figure he wants to plead his case. instead he says "hey, i'm thinking of bringing a string section, so the guarantee has to be higher." and i'm like "no way, man. i'm not even sure we're doing the show." so we argued.

I dreamed that I was in some kind of break room at my work making something with gooseberries, and there was also a fold out couch so I was maybe also living there? Anyway I was waking up in the morning on the couch and people were kind of bustling around me making coffee and then most of them left except one guy who actually works on my floor in real life, and he leaned over way too close and told me his girlfriend was going to be visiting later that day, and would I act as their security guard? I was like uhhh I don't think so and then he tried to kiss me and I was like UGH NO and ran out but couldn't find a room with doors that locked. Woke up feeling v disturbed.

Got to the bar and they had JUST started playing A Nightmare on Elm Street 2 on the tvs. So excited, I ordered a drink, turned around, and everyone had left- just me, alone in the bar, watching A Nightmare on Elm Street 2, but
it was all a dream

i was driving my mom and i around town and we were stuck behind some fancy car for a while. it eventually pulled over to let us path them and when we looked, it was trump and bannon.
right after we passed them, they started honking at us and trying to pass us but kept getting blocked in the other lane and having to swerve back behind us and getting really mad.
there honestly wasnt much of a payoff after that due to my neighbor getting home at 4 am or whatever.

this messageboard was real life. there was a "fans' lounge" that looked like an airport lounge. threads were different rooms off the side of the lounge. it was a little like the surge protector in Wreck-It Ralph where everyone congregated between visiting specific threads.
i was in the baseball room and there were tryouts for some event at a very high level. when it was each person's time, they were to change into a uniform and then run through a handful of baseball drills. except it turned out that instead we were all singing karaoke against the real songs, and then being judged on how close we were to the original recording. (jay bruce was one of the judges.) my song was "cosmic dancer." so i start out "i was dancing when i was twelve..." and then hugh jackman interrupts me in a very obnoxious way, like how i can't sing and will never succeed. so i stop. when it's his turn, he has to put on the uniform. while he's changing, i fill his uniform with a neverending stream of packing peanuts. they're coming out of the pantlegs, sleeves, chest. and it won't stop. so he's very mad and begins to yell at me. we end up back in the fans' lounge where a huge fight erupts. i get banned from the board.
posters who didn't think it was an egregious offense bring out an army of alt accounts to continue the packing peanut frenzy. at this point, it is now called "papering." and it has spread outside of the board. in my banishment, i have found a pleasant farming messageboard. i get news on a ticker tape that is actually a big fruit roll-up. but i cannot escape being the originator of papering. it follows me everywhere. there are jokes about it on late night talk shows and other boards get infiltrated with my supporters who find it a silly but harmless prank. i try to talk to hugh jackman to apologize for the original incident since he is spearheading a campaign against me. but he will not take my messages. he continues to get papered constantly.

So that's something you have to look forward to.

Also you’re not wearing pants and there’s a dark figure wandering around here somewhere” I graduated college 23 years ago and I still get those forgotten class/test dreams. So that's something you have to look forward to. The recurring theme for me is "walking through the halls, go by a classroom, realize that class is on my schedule, the exam is today, i haven't shown up or turned in any of the homework all year" I have to believe this is spurred by a real-life situation that happened to me... My junior year of college, I had an online psych class with one lecture a week, sort of a split between full-lecture and recitation. I *only* went to the lecture/recitation to get my attendance taken for credit. Right before the final, I get an email stating that "we will NOT take the final in our usual classroom in Weatherill Hall"...etc., etc. Except I'd never attended that class in Weatherill Hall. I'd always gone somewhere else for the class. Turns out one of the early weeks I skipped class, they announced the class was moving to a different building on campus. Sent an email too, that I promptly ignored. I sat through (and took attendance) at an entire semester of Criminal Justice, which was passable enough as psych to someone who wasn't paying attention. I had to take the psych final almost blind, and somehow still passed the class.

1. How did you take attendance for a class you weren't registered for?
2. Did you also take the Criminal Justice final and how did you do?

I wish my subconscious was so fucking delightful. toward the end i had a realization that hugh jackman was never going to stop trash talking me in the media and that i had no way to tell my side of the story. every time my name was googled, like it probably is in the job search i am in the midst of, all anyone saw was that i had papered hugh jackman. i woke up with a crazy high heartbeat and it took a relatively long time to calm myself down. however, the fruit roll-up ticker tape was delightful.

1. How did you take attendance for a class you weren't registered for? 2. Did you also take the Criminal Justice final and how did you do? 1. The attendance for the CJ class in Weatherill Hall was taken on a scantron form at the end of the class. You had to sit through the entire thing, then they passed those out and wrote a random letter on the board for you to fill in. You turned that in on your way out the door. I was just turning in scantrons with my name and ID on them, and nobody ever flagged that someone was doing this WEEKLY that wasn't in their class. Not shifting blame, just sort of wild. 2. No, but I probably would've done better than on the psych one. The psych stuff was weighted so the final was a HEAVY portion of the grade, allowing me to make up for literally missing every week of attendance. It was a 100-level class and I think I studied for a night, maybe two. Bonus: At LEAST twice in the CJ class, the material was interesting enough (about investigation, crime in general, etc.) that I actually looked up from my laptop and paid attention through the whole class. Obviously hindsight is 20/20, but I genuinely thought it was just something the prof was working into the curriculum and was also proud of myself for actually paying attention.

That is fascinating!
The only comparison I have is in college a bunch of us took a food science class that was broadcast on public access so we'd all get redacted and order a pizza and watch the lecture every Monday. It was such a big "class" that the final was in different lecture halls way over on the Ag campus that none of us had ever set foot on before so on the day of the final (which was at like 8 a.m. of course) I remember scrambling all over campus and then all over this building in what felt like the pre-dawn hours probably hungover trying to find the right room (keep in mind this was pre- Google maps or even much internet really) and just being like ffffffuuuuuuuuu

definitely had a nightmare where i couldn't tell time and somehow missed all of the Nick Cave q&a/solo show, as well as some other late night thing that was going on.
so yeah no one hang out with me next monday, just to be safe.
(separate thread but those Nick Cave setlists are *fire emoji*)
