I had a disturbing dream last night
2004-11-23, 10:43 AM #1
In my dream:

First, I went to the store to "buy" Half-Life 2. The CEO of Valve was there and I asked him whether I could get the game without getting STEAM. He told me I could but then I'd only be able to play with the CDs. I asked him what he meant by that and he told me I could use the CDs to play frisbee. >:(

Then I went to the doctor for a checkup and he told me I had horrible dandruff. I asked him what I should do and he prescribed me 3 poisonous spiders that I would have to eat to get cured. He gave them to me in small plastic boxes half-filled with dirt and with a flimsy lid. While I was transporting them to my Jeep one of the spiders got crushed by the dirt (don't know how that happened, it was a dream!). Then, while I was driving, I hit some bumps and the remaining spiders escaped. Then they bit me. Then I woke up.

End of dream.

I think the first part means I really want to try HL2 but I can't because I refuse to buy products with "activation" and I'm secretly more disappointed than I let on to be.

I have no idea what the second part means - I did catch a creepy looking spider yesterday and put it outside so maybe it's just nothing.

wow. it's even more weird because there's poisonous headcrabs in the game... and you didnt even play it yet.

and on a serious note... the activation really isnt that bad. if the game totally sucked, i would have put up a fuss, but its seriously the most fun ive ever had playing a video game. steam is good program, and you can blame the need for all this on people who download it instead of buying it... not valve. unless you already dont blame valve, then good job.

The last dream I can remember I was a soldier. I was all alone in enemy territory and I was hiding in a ditch with only a knife. People kept coming over to the ditch, and I had to grab their feet, pull them in, and stab them with the knife until they were dead. Then a girl in all white came and I stabbed her too...it was strange.

The spiders must represent your sense of insecurity. Would you allow and rely upon today's medical practices to enter your lifestyle, even if you know nothing about medicine? Is it entirely safe to trust the numerous drugs and suppliments to enter your body, even if you don't know what they are or what they will do? You trust the spiders to cure you dandruff issue, even if you're not sure these creatures will really help you.

So you put these spiders, these mysterious "cures", into your personal living space, your jeep. You are willing to live your life with these medical products. But what happens along the way? Some products (represented by the spider who got killed by the dirt) don't work at all. They give you no benefits, yet you have to carry the burden of paying for them. Things happen. On your road of life, you hit bumps. These bumps represent your fear. The medical products that you were willing to accept have turned to harmed you. Those spiders bit you and altered you life.

I am just chuckling to myself imagining Brian being the Neo that will set gaming free again. Maybe in 5 years; maybe in 30, but he's destined. :D

I can't remember any nice dreams lately.. except this one dream where I somehow lost my thumb in an accident, entered #massassi, everyone greeted me, but I wasn't able to write anything without the thumb. And all other crap. Hm.

I usually don't remember my dreams, but when I do (almost never) they are usually very strange and involve warped reality...

A few days ago, i had a dream that I was in a friends car and was talking to a hot girl that I know and she brought up something like having a dream and food tasting so good in them, and I was like yeah I remember a dream I had and *incert some kind of food* tasted so good too.

When I woke up, I was thinking, did I just remember a dream, IN A DREAM!! :eek:

I had an upsetting dream the other night as well. In the course of the dream, I was just going through a normal day, and then I called up my would-be girlfriend (its a complex situation, I'd rather not get into that right now). She didn't answer her phone, and I suddenly got a recorded message. The voice on the recording sounded really deep and haunting. The message was that she had been murdered. . . . I dropped the phone and then woke up with my heart racing.

As soon as I got a chance that morning I wrote her an email telling her just how much I love her.

I once had a cream where I told my mom about a dream I had the night before.

That got confusing.

Now that's kind of funny, considering that you really only need one thumb to type. Why didn't you just use the other thumb, lol :D

I had an HL2 related dream, but a while ago. :p


I was a combine soldier, we were going through one of those old apartment buildings. I was ordered to go into a small office and collect some evidence, but as I was walking to the office I saw many horrible things, People begging for mercy but instead getting shot in the face. This old lady got thrown out a window actually. And there was lots of screaming / crying / shooting in the background. I woke up and I was sick to my stomach, crazy stuff.

I had a dream once, was along the lines of this...

I had just arrived back from a holiday, I'd gone out to this beautiful little waterfall in the hills that i often go to. I looked over the edge and suddenly turned around. there was this girl i knew, she just pushed me, while giving me a blank expression... i can remember falling for ages until i just woke up - i was in complete shock and i think i even shouted out too...i felt REAL dizzy. :(
Sneaky sneaks. I'm actually a werewolf. Woof.
