So last night I had an insanely weird, very vivid dream...
Tbh most of it is boring, but the bit that really fucking got me

I was driving an Austin Metro!!!!

For a start they were already well old by the time I learnt to drive in 2001, I now only ride motorbikes, and the best bit is I've not been in one since primary school but my brain replicated the interior perfectly (I googled!).

Just why?'??

Why not a fucking Ferrari or something??

Why a perfect replica of a Metro ffs??

My brain is clearly weird. [Confused]

AIBU to think dreams are fucked up?

As a late teen I dreamt a polar bear came in via our dcat flap and we sat and had a hot chocolate!!

My weirdest dream was me cradling and loving a bag of wallpaper paste like it was my baby. So that was normal.

AnIdiotNeedsHelp · 09/03/2020 19:46

That sounds infinitely better than a fricking Metro!

Polar bear + hot choc sounds like an amazing JL xmas advert......

Mundane driving a fucking Metro round my shitty old town????

Not so much.

I dreamt last night that my husband told me he was gay and then he turned into Philip Schofield!

AnIdiotNeedsHelp · 09/03/2020 19:48

Wallpaper paste baby is definitely weirder! Grin

Glad I'm not the only one!

Polar bear + hot chocolate could be a sequel to The Tiger Who Came To Tea.

I used to work in a care home and the other night I had a dream that a resident who probably passed away 8 years ago was taking to me. Clear as day! Really weirded me out.

Idroppedthescrewinthetuna · 09/03/2020 19:53

I am so jealous! You all seem to have lovely dreams. My dreams are boring or scary!
I want to have a dream and I wake up thinking what the heck!

I spent ages chucking spoons at someones car windscreen last night. I had a never ending supply of said spoons and just kept lobbing them at the couple in the car who were watching them bounce off the windscreen.
I cant even think of anything I've seen to have triggered that.

Ouchaheadinmybehind · 09/03/2020 20:03

Not even a dream. Last night in bed my weird brain wondered if, at my sainsburys local, I bought one of every single item in the shop
A) how many items would there be
B) how much would my shopping cost &
C) how would I get it all home

Why?!

AutumnGlitterBall · 09/03/2020 20:04

I’ve had dreams that seem to last as long as a shift at work and I’m doing really boring stuff in them. Then I wake up and actually need to go to work for ten hours. I’ve already done a shift in my head! Why not at least dream the exciting stuff I occasionally do? 🤔

Singlebutmarried · 09/03/2020 20:05

A mouse with a moustache smoking a pipe?

Singlebutmarried · 09/03/2020 20:05

@AutumnGlitterBall I do that loads. It’s exhausting

aWeaponCalledtheWord · 09/03/2020 20:12

the other night i dreamed i was marrying my gigantically overweight ex-boss, who i last saw about 8 years ago.

brrrr. weird.

Springsnake · 09/03/2020 20:13

Massive T. rex in the sea while I’m paddling,worse dream ever

SciFiScream · 09/03/2020 20:14

This is really outing but I once had a very vivid dream where I accidentally killed a Womble with a special monster killing device I'd invented (to protect the wombles!). All took place inside a mansion that contained a forest.

TeddyIsaHe · 09/03/2020 20:16

I had a dream that they changed the shape of spearmint polos and I was truly indignant about this. Dream-me even phoned my dad to complain. I haven’t had a polo for about 15 years. No idea!

sunshineANDsweetpeas · 09/03/2020 20:16

I woke myself up laughing last night. I was surfing around a holiday complex in Tenerife on a fluffy seal Grin I was having a whale of a time

22Giraffes · 09/03/2020 20:17

Wallpaper paste baby 😂😂😂

Poshjock · 09/03/2020 20:26

@TeddyIsaHe Oh I loved spearmint polos. Do they even exist now? I want one now.

I had a month with no refined sugar. I don't think I've had a day without a biscuit my whole life. So I ended up dreaming I was hiding in cupboard and toilets stuffing my face with biscuits and trying to avoid my work colleagues catching me "cheating". NICE biscuits btw.

Another dream was me sitting in a nice restaurant with some work colleagues and eating this amazing chocolate cake with an orange cream centre. I could taste it and the cake was like Terry's Chocolate orange. The fondant was like orange curd, sweet and tart. The weird thing was I knew I was dreaming and I was thinking, how do I count calories on a cake I am dreaming I'm eating, because I can taste it so I must have to count it! Thankfully I got past that phase and I haven't had any biscuit related dreams for a couple of weeks now.

As a child I dreamt I ate my dolls head, the hair and everything Confused

My mum said I refused to play with it after that

Finallyatooth · 09/03/2020 20:28

My dreams have become very middle aged and boring.

Recently I dreamt about having a walk in pantry.

Last night I dreamt about picking out a new carpet. Flicking through carpet samples I was. Depressingly I didn't like any of them. I can't even get good carpet in my dreams.
