... to found a society dedicated to the re-establishment of the Ant's older, better, truer name: the PISMIRE!!

that was this morning, possibly after my argt with Dan on old and new meanings of words

what absurd solutions to the world's problems have you woken up from a dream with?

(cf also my dad's dream of the lecture he gave in french, to be found on the "Music You Dreamt" thread)

I often wake up thinking I have seen fully formed episodes of TV sitcoms (not like dreaming, cos I don't actually remember the physical act of seeing them).

At University interview I woke up with an Eureka for a interview question re: root 2 being irrational. Two hours of feverish scribbling later I had filled eighteen pages of glorious maths. When I got to line two of this in the actual interview the bored DOn at Hertford said - "Stop - that's not the proper proof".
(Later found out my proof woz better, it can predict all numbas with irrational roots).

Three days ago I dreamt that I'd seen the inside of a grid-lined notebook that was filled with phrases that unlocked things, like a spellbook or like the perfect succinct answer to every ILX question ever (these would amount to the same thing i guess). I remembered one, but it kills me because it was quite clear in the dream that this was also the least powerful/magical/impactful of them all, and of course I'm like "oh but no matter, I'll remember the rest, too" - "Thermopylae"

My favourite thing in the whole of Twin Peaks is that Cooper dreams being told who killed Laura Palmer, then FORGETS who it is.

I woke up with a piece of orange peel stuck to my face.

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 26 February 2003 16:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Where was the rest of the orange?

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 26 February 2003 16:32 (twenty-three years ago)

In my tummy.

I dreamt this morning that I was flying a baby blue balloon, like you would a kite, through an empty lot populated with mud, topographical swerves and abandoned contruction machinery. Oddly, my balloon wasn't attached with string, but rather a giant strand of bark, which twirled up at least three stories into the sky.

What this means for the rest of the world, I'm not sure, but 'pismire' sounds like a fantastic idea nonetheless.

I just googled Thermopylae and discovered that a great battle between the Greeks and the Persians took place there (I had no idea what the hell this word meant) and the Greek general was named Leonidas! This clearly indicates that I should buy chocolates as soon as possible.

it's also the one-word answer to some famous joke/question/anecdote

anyway this is a classic of "he woke up and it was all a dream — or was it? for there on the counterpane beside him lay the magical hello kitty dildo!"

'Board games were invented in Ancient Greece you know.'
'Thermopylae?'
'No, more like chess really'.

― Archel (Archel), Wednesday, 26 February 2003 16:44 (twenty-three years ago)

Archel in that case the phrase I remembered would have been "No, more like chess really" -- or maybe that WAS one of them! ARGH! * rends clothing *

Thanks to you mark s I am now imagining the Hello Kitty dildo turning towards the camera with EVIL CAT EYES like the end of the Thriller video.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 26 February 2003 16:52 (twenty-three years ago)

BEST DREAM EVAH!!

― mark s (mark s), Wednesday, 26 February 2003 16:54 (twenty-three years ago)

One, two, the Hello Kitty dildo's coming for you!
Three, four, better lock your door!
Five, six, grab your crucifix!
Seven, eight, better stay up late!
Nine, ten, never sleep again!

(perhaps the first line doesn't quite scan)

One, two, Kitty's buzzin' on you?

Wait, is Pete saying he fell asleep at his university interview?
