Oh God, WTF is going on with my subconscious?!

Let me preface this post by saying that

  • I am a Marxist academic
  • I have always been left wing
  • I find the current Tory government abhorrent in every possible meaning of that word (politically, economically, socially)
  • The above statement includes physical repugnance, i.e. I am literally repelled by the likes of our Prime Minister, Jacob Rees Bogg etc.

So - given the profound sincerity of all of the above, and I swear to God I am not lying - can someone please tell me WHY THE FUCK I had a dream last night in which I was Boris Johnson's bit on the side, and sneaking around to have sex with him in secret?!

WTF!!!

Meh, I quite fancy Bercow so it's clearly doing funny things to us all.

Or-DEEEEEEER! I can actually see Bercow, if I squint a bit. But Boris?! I have traumatized myself.

"This thread should have a health warning"

Apologies!! Maybe I should contact Mumsnet HQ and have 'TRIGGER WARNING' written in the title Wink

Your entire life has clearly been a lie, as your subconscious mind struggles to process the cognitive overload generated by your profound, ineffable love for The Johnson Grin

I dreamt I had a dirty weekend in a camper van with Nigel Farage once OP, not sure which is worse!

Shock Farage in a camper van is DEFINITELY worse @Hidingtonothing ! I feel like I owe you a double whisky for having to recall that just to comfort me Grin

@CentrillonSings It's the hair, isn't it?!

Whisky gratefully received, it was pretty awful 😱

SpamChaudFroid · 23/09/2019 14:45

Boris will probably pass a law making it compulsory for ALL women to be his bit on the side. You were having a premonition Shock

BlueEyedBengal · 23/09/2019 14:48

Got to be that man in power thing you are finding attractive. Even though Boris is a right mess to look at and has that clumsy oaf act I think maybe Boris might be a total beast in the sheets. Grin

Bluntness100 · 23/09/2019 14:50

Farage in a camper van is defo worse...

BlueEyedBengal · 23/09/2019 14:54

Farage would probably smell of whiskey and smoke I think Boris is the better dream. What did you eat that night op? Whatever it was it doesn't agree with you stop before you get the nightmare about Farage in the camper!

Gingernaut · 23/09/2019 14:57

I suppose, deep down you want to be safe and 'looked after'.

BoJo is rich, well educated, intelligent (supposedly 🙄), well connected and will be well insulated from the chaos we rabble will endure after Brexit.

IncrediblySadToo · 23/09/2019 14:59

I can’t see ANY attraction in Boris AT ALL, but I think he would actually be great fun & good in bed. How was he in your dream?

Bercow though 🤮whoever said that needs therapy AND a good set of ear plugs as well as a blind fold

Oooh @SpamChaudFroid very Handmaid's Tale. Thanks for recovering my feminist credentials with that interpretation. I appreciate it! Grin

In my dream, he was a total disappointment @IncrediblySadToo. I actually think he would be the type that is super selfish in bed IRL.

Hidingtonothing · 23/09/2019 15:22

It was a really nice camper van though......

Well, if you want a serious reply, it is because he represents your shadow which you are seeking to integrate.
But I suspect you're not.

Nat6999 · 23/09/2019 15:43

If you are having dreams like that about Boris, your brain needs a good wash & you need counselling. Have you been watching the news & parliament reports too closely?

BlueEyedBengal · 23/09/2019 15:55

You can't beat a good camperWink

That’s a shame he disappointed you.

I think ‘selfish’ is a bit subjective because I think he probably would think of his own pleasure first, but I think he would enjoy the the things that can make someone ‘good fun’ in bed. If that makes sense. It definitely wouldn’t all be about any deep emotional connection 🤣😂

zebrasdontwearbras · 23/09/2019 17:31

OP - I kid you not, I've had exactly the same dream TWICE now - sneaking around behind DH's back, with Nigel fucking Farage.

It's just too awful. He's repugnant in every way possible, and I just can't imagine why my brain does this to me Shock

zebrasdontwearbras · 23/09/2019 17:33

I may have to namechange now. Honestly, what an admission.

BlueEyedBengal · 23/09/2019 17:42

I met Nigel Farage this year and not kidding that massive grin of his is even bigger in real life. My husband shouted fancy a pint Nige? And he would have only the landlord said he was a labour supporter and Nigel had better piss off! But he was very nice about it and carried on throughout the town with his minions following close behind

AFistfulofDolores1 · 23/09/2019 17:54

Because there's a part of you that's secretly in bed with the Tories. I mean it. You have hidden it from yourself.
