"Now that we've both made sausages in my closet, don't you think I should know your name?"

I had a dream about the bands without internet presence thread on ILM. Everyone was posting names of bands and that so obviously have an internet site, I was getting quite pedantic about it, but everyone was really grateful when I showed them where to find their favourite websites.

I had a dream that mark s told me I should write a book examining math textbooks from something like a ten year period, critically examining their approach. (I think it started at some point in the 80's.) I said something like, "I know you're going to say it's not really a weakness [when it comes to doing a project like this] that I'm very bad at math, but I don't believe you." And then mark s did indeed say something along those lines, and make some sort of case as to why it wouldn't matter, but I can't quite remember what it was.

You must write this book immediately.

my dream last night, i must've been channeling alex in nyc or something.
a good chunk of it was spent trying to drive up to guelph (a town north of toronto) to see killing joke play.
having gotten totally side-tracked on the way a friend of mine called from the show taunting me with a rather crisp transmission of "pandemonium" over his cell. never made it to the show & wound up at some weird convention or somethingerother.

I dreamt that Alan Hansen was our mate and he came to the pùb with us and talked about indie music. OK, it was hazier than that makes it sound, but still.

Last night night I dreamt that I was about to watch a dramatic new stage production about the secret lives of Scooby Doo cartoon characters. Naturally it starred Adam Ant as Scooby.

A couple of weeks ago I dreamt that I was amateur!st, and that I'd been captured by Texans who were angry about me being some kinda foreign no-good non-Redneck type. I was sorta sad and slow and kinda Zoidberg-esque about it all, like this sort of thing happened all the time. Then I found out that their leader was Blount, and I thought that was a good sign, only then he announced that one of his buddies had decided that I was going to be hung, and they're wasn't much he could do about, though obviously he'd like to, fellow ILXors and all. He wasn't very convincing.

I had a crazy dream yesterday, it was ridiculous. I dreamt I was in Trinity College in Dublin and I met Rob B and Colette, and Rob was telling me he was preparing for an exam where he had to talk about TAXATION (???) but he was ok because the lecturer was actually from the same town as Colette.

At the time however, in the dream, I didn't care because I had just been informed that I'd broken up with a girl I'm not going out with. She was furious and quite cutting on the phone, it was scary. She then sent me a text which read, and this is seriously weird, "step one, find cup, step two, add coffee, step three, take our relationship to the PURGERATOR".

I swear this is the most fucked up dream I've ever had, I guess the medicine I'm on at the moment is kind of crazy.

I woke up and was quite glad to find myself still on good terms with the girl in question.

this is totally one of these threads where people read posts and go "what??????"

Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 10 September 2004 13:39 (nineteen years ago) link

yeah staggering amount of detail there compared to ones average dream

Michael B, Friday, 10 September 2004 13:41 (nineteen years ago) link

I know it sounds dubious and I never ever ever remember dreams but it was about 9 o clock yesterday morning.

Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 10 September 2004 13:50 (nineteen years ago) link

This is unrelated to ilx, but last night I had a dream where (in one part - and surprisingly this was the most normal part) I was somehow involved in the production of a trading spaces/changing rooms type of tv show - except the house I was in was a big stone mansion, and the family was the pretty much the Addams family. Morticia was NOT into the fabric the desginer had chosen. I think I was just there to find something though.

Kim (Kim), Monday, 13 September 2004 01:57 (nineteen years ago) link

I think I dreamt about Mandee the other day? I believe she dyed her hair. I don't remember anything else.

I have never met the Pinefox, once watched him walk across a room, but nonetheless...I dreamt last night that he had been practicing some incredibly advanced martial art and kept asking me to feel his biceps. And he had an amazing tan.

From now on Ronan, if anyone disses me, I'm taking them atraight to the PURGERATOR.

As an afterthought, you don't think she meant 'percolator'?

two weeks pass...
last night, lara was hiding, behind our bins.

RJG (RJG), Friday, 1 October 2004 10:16 (nineteen years ago) link

brilliant dream notions:

a dramatic new stage production about the secret lives of Scooby Doo cartoon characters.

a book examining math textbooks from something like a ten year period, critically examining their approach.

MTV was showing graphic sexual acts

the folds in her red pajamas suddenly morphed into the shape of Sean Carruther's head.

take our relationship to the PURGERATOR

(the last two i just put in because i couldn't not)

omg the second-last one

I had a dream that I was at Tom Waits' house.
We went out to his shop/garage whatever so I could help him paint something.
When we finished I had paint all over my hands.
He says in that trademark TW voice :"Here, put some pussy on em." while handing me a can of turpentine.

Funny how it totally made sense in the dream that Tom Waits calls turpentine "pussy".
Now, ummmmm..........

AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 1 October 2004 18:19 (nineteen years ago) link

Someone just reminded me... I dreamed I was on a train, and on the wall was a big poster with a weird picture of a shark advertising the Noize board. Like it was a genuine cultural phenomenon or something.

This actually is one of the best thread on ILX, to read.

Last night I dreamt that I went out to Karaoke and Ned Raggett was there singing an Olivia Newton-John song. I don't remember which song it was, but he said "This is an Olivia Newton-John song." in a voice exactly like Toby Radloff from American Splendor and then began singing in a high operatic tenor. His hair looked not unlike Peter Mayhew's in the new Star Wars: Empire of Dreams documentary.

AaronHz (AaronHz), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:30 (nineteen years ago) link

OMG WAS IT "PHYSICAL"???????????????????????????????? OR MAYBE "XANADU"???????????????????????????

Dan Perry '08 (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:34 (nineteen years ago) link

I just had an image of Ned in leg warmers.

Gold Teeth II (kenan), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:37 (nineteen years ago) link

(my work here is done)

Dan Perry '08 (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:41 (nineteen years ago) link

It was some sort of ballad. I'm no ONJ expert.

AaronHz (AaronHz), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:44 (nineteen years ago) link

I always thought that people who said they had dreams about ilxors were weird but IT HAPPENED TO ME LAST NIGHT!

I dreamt it was my birthday and my sister had a surprise party for me but let it slip on the way to the venue (a large pub with a circular bar) that she'd invited all my 'friends from ILX'(!) I said, 'I don't know anyone on ILX and don't really want them at my party anyway'. And next thing I was at the party but it was over very quickly. Next day, all my 'friends from ILX' were saying, 'Great party, Penelope' and I was saying, 'what the hell are you talking about, you weren't at my party'. And I had this awful feeling that I'd forgotten what had happened the night before and I started to panic cos I thought my mind was going.

Then I woke up.

What CAN it mean??? I'll be afraid to sleep tonight.

Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:45 (nineteen years ago) link

But it really was a good party Penelope!

nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:47 (nineteen years ago) link

It's about my mother, innit?

Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:47 (nineteen years ago) link

It means you're secretly distrustful of ILXors. You're afraid we'll break into your house and drink all your booze.

Gold Teeth II (kenan), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:47 (nineteen years ago) link

Which is the sort of thing we do, to be fair.

Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:48 (nineteen years ago) link

That Ned/ONJ thing was the first ILX related dream I've had as well.

AaronHz (AaronHz), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:49 (nineteen years ago) link

It was so bizarre. I suddenly feel so much closer to you guys.

You really ARE my friends!

Get the fuck outta my dreams though.

Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:51 (nineteen years ago) link

You're afraid we'll break into your house and drink all your booze.

Or crash your party with a giant fucking boat.

Dan Perry '08 (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:53 (nineteen years ago) link

Haha. Perfect.

Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 18:55 (nineteen years ago) link

usually whenever ilxors feature in my dreams they're just making a cameo appearance or are off doing something in the background. depends how well i know the ilxors, though.

pfeffernuesse (Jody Beth Rosen), Tuesday, 5 October 2004 19:53 (nineteen years ago) link

Omigod, I forgot about this! I had a dream that Colette and I moved into this beautiful new apartment, and we had finally got all our stuff in, and were sorting it out, and then all these TEENAGE GIRLS turn up and start wrecking everything.

Turns out that we had been duped by a shifty landlord, and our fab new "apartment" was actually the lobby of a GIRLS BOARDING SCHOOL.

I'm sure there are conclusions to be drawn there about "being on ILX just like being back in high school" or something...

what katie didn't do, Wednesday, 6 October 2004 09:51 (nineteen years ago) link

i had this fucking horrible nightmare last night. i will describe it only it won't sound bad--what was really bad was the feeling of dread it inspired in me for no reason.

so it's two weeks from now, and i'm in paris. only i don't know how i got there or what has happened in the two intervening weeks--i somehow have blanked it out or am suffering from minor amnesia. i'm in a restaurant, a long place with one wall full of little sculptures of buildings. or maybe they are buildings! because they start to get bombed or something, and i can't figure out if it's real buildings in the distance or weird little models in the restaurant.

all the time i am thinking, "SHIT, THIS ISN'T A DREAM. THERE IS NO WAY THIS IS A DREAM!" it was like a reverse-lucid dream! then i "wake up" and try to post about it on ilx, except this is dream-within-a-dream styles going on here!

then i really wake up and kinda freak out and scare the gf and sneeze a lot.

The End

s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 21:27 (nineteen years ago) link

The scariest part is the sneezing! WHY?

adam. (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 21:33 (nineteen years ago) link

I am currently having a recurring dream that I am watching The Incredibles and it is SHOCKINGLY bad but I can't leave the theater!

adam. (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 21:34 (nineteen years ago) link

i wish i knew bro.

seriously, it was really chilling. fucked my shit right up.

xp

s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 21:35 (nineteen years ago) link

i mean the DREAM was chilling! the sneezing was annoying

Recently I had a dream that a book I was reading was written by an author named "Asshat", wish I could remember what the book was about.

I had the worst dream ever last night:

I was listening to football results on the radio. (Note, I do not like or understand football) I was waiting for something. When the announcer said 'Arbroath' (Not the result mind, just the team. I don't even know if Arbroath have a team) I leapt in the air and cheered.

I also did this in my bed, asleep. I've pulled my back really badly, and woke up in pain. Certain movements cause a surprising amount of pain, which makes me catch my breath and feel sick. So, worst dream ever.

Also, I'm trying to find a meaning. Why Arbroath? Is Arbroath a good thing? - I cheered, implying it was good, but it also destroyed my back, so who knows?

Kevin Gilchrist (Mr Fusion), Sunday, 24 October 2004 22:39 (nineteen years ago) link

i had four ilxors show up in my dreams lately at various times. five if you count people who've only posted a few times.
