Strange dreams

Bit of a long one but my strangest/best ever dream:

Fifa decided not to award the World Cup to Qatar due to the heat and instead gave it to North Korea.

Myself and my housemate were called up to the squad (we're both accountants) and travelled over to North Korea with the rest of the lads. Once we were there we had absolutely no contact with the outside world and nobody outside of the country knew how the World Cup was going as it was only North Koreans that were allowed to attend games (no tourists/travelling fans whatsoever).

I became friendly with a local who worked for the local tv station who told me that the station was releasing highlights of the matches but there was a week delay between the match and the highlights being released to the rest of the world.

After surprsing everyone by topping our group we then played some absolutely amazing stuff during the knock out stages and went on to meet Brazil in the semi final. It was a bitter sweet feeling as neither me or my housemate had got a minutes playing time. We expressed our concerns to Trap who informed us that he had been saving us for the big occassion, and the semi final was it.

****ing go time.

After a titanic struggle, we ended up losing 4-3 to Brazil. Ronaldinho came over to me in the players lounge after the match and told me that it was the toughest game he had ever played. He asked when were we flying back to Ireland and I told him it was the day after the final. He said there was a big party in their team hotel regardless of the result and we should go along.

So Brazil beat Germany 3-1 and me + housemate head over to the hotel after. It's a invitation only party but Ronaldinho (or "Ron" as I called him) came out to let us in. As you can imagine the place was absolutely hopping, with drink and girls everywhere.

At about 5:30am, people are feeling the effects of the all night bender, there are bodies passed out everywhere. My housemate says we better go as our flight is at 9 so we start to step over the sleeping people when I spot it.... The World Cup trophy, sitting, unguarded on the piano. I take a quick look around and nobody is watching so I stuff it up my jumper and we do a legger. There's no security search at the airport (it's my ****ing dream, I can do what I like) so we are on the plane when I reveal to the rest of my team mates what I've swiped. They are ecstatic (no idea why) and we party on the plane like we really did win it. When we get to our connecting flight in China, I call home and ask my Mam how much have the highlights have been shown. She says "we've just finished the group stages, you're doing really well".. "Well guess what?", I say "We've only gone and won the ****ing thing, get everyone up to the airport". So we arrive to Dublin to a record crowd of 2.3million people who are fully sure we won the World Cup in North Korea.

And then I woke up and lay there for 10-15 utterly confused as it had all seemed so real.

Does anyone have sensation in their dreams, such as warmth/cold? I didn't realise it's unusual for me until I had a dream where I was looking at glowing embers in a fireplace and I could feel the heat..

I've gotten the smell of oranges in my dreams - really strong, lovely smell of oranges. I particularly like that one.

I've woken myself up laughing on quite a few occasions - proper hearty belly laughs, and twice I've woken myself up crying and found actual tears on my face; the first time I'd been dreaming I'd just been told my brother was dead and I can't remember what I was dreaming the second time.

I've had a couple of dreams that I feel were powerful in terms of helping me move on from stuff I needed to move on from - emotional stuff - the first one was extremely intense and I had that whole wake up with a fright, sit bolt upright in the bed, sweating and shaken.

For those that hate hearing other people's dreams, look away now:

I was in a night club that was run on a human generator. I was at the bar about to buy a drink and noticed the bouncers (who were reptiles and spoke in a garbled wail) were taking the old, bloodied and exhausted human out of the generator chamber to replace him with me :eek:

So I ran. My friends helped me hide and even though I saw the reptiles take the old generator back - and he was screaming because he didn't want to go back - I felt bad but had to save myself.

The night club had three floors, all made of glass and a fireman's pole for getting from the top floor to the bottom. When I ran to the door of the club to escape I looked up and saw the reptile bouncers' feet at the top of the club, pressed against the glass floor, about to descend the pole to get me. Once out the door, I ran and was in a park, running, running, running and suddenly I saw my father's car. Delighted, I jumped in and sat back breathing a sigh of relief....

The I heard the familiar reptile garbled wail sound and opened my eyes to see the car was being driven by a reptile and there were two others in the back seat. When the car stopped at red lights, I jumped out and ran again. Running, running, running, till I came to a black door.

I went in through the black door and leaned against it as I closed it....breathing a sigh of relief. Until I looked up and realised I was back in the club and the reptiles were now coming down the last bit of the fireman's pole, about to reach me.

I woke up. Sweating and terrified.

I much prefer the smell of oranges in my dreams

Last night i had a dream that i had signed for Liverpool.

The first game was against United and i scored a hat trick.

Frada set up all the goals.

Stovelid was the United manager.

Alwaysadub was the ref.

Years ago i had a dream that i was in a car with my dad.

He was chasing after someone trying to run them down.

Just before he hit him, the man turned around.

It was Jesus.

Is the smell of oranges associated with a particularly happy memory?

I dunno, now that you ask, you've got me wondering if it is.

I do like the smell of oranges - though I prefer lemon or lime. Might just be the fact it's a fresh and zingy smell that awakens the senses

Or it might have a deeper connection. Something for me to muse upon

I have ridiculously vivid dreams where my teeth are falling out in handfuls. Im actually spitting dozens of them into my hand or they're hanging by a thread in my gums and im going up to people showing them cos they dont believe me. I literally wake up sweating they seem so real.

Another one i had i swear i felt like i was on my way out or something

This black banshee type yoke was screeching at me as if she was sucking the life out of me, but i was able to wake myself up as i knew i was dreaming. It was this weird struggle though and as i woke up she was sucked backwards screaming at me in rage because she couldnt get me....:eek::eek::eek: No word of a lie, thinking of that dream still gives me the shivers it was so realistic and scary.

My dreams are pretty sad and embarrassing tbh because they ALWAYS involve celebrities:o
The amount of weird dreams I've had recently is shocking:

I was the 6th member of one direction! But I got kicked out because I was always drinking, passing out and couldn't sing (ironic or what!)

I was in England with my friends and I was in some council estate and low and behold, we stumbled upon olly murs' house. We became friends with him before we robbed him!

Then during that same dream above, I was in Italy in some kind of parade in a car with lady gaga.... Flash forward to us doing heroin and getting busted by the guards which involved us trying to hide the syringes and I ended up breaking it in my hand causing me to wake up.

Thank god my dreams don't reflect my real life otherwise I'd have some fucking serious issues!

Not if the conversation is about 'crazy' dreams you've had. Some dreams are interesting to hear.

Telling every single dream you've ever had would cause a glazing...but so does people posting on threads about a specific subjects to ask does that particular subject bring a glaze to one's eyes
