  • Can Dreams Count as Valid Experiences?

    Let's say, for example, that you had the unfortunate dream of a loved one dying. After you wake, could you then claim that you experienced the death of said loved one?

    I voted before reading the OP like a true liberal. I apologize, I thought the poll will be about "can dreams count towards work experience", and the only answer to that one is "yes".

                If this were the case, are you a virgin after your first wet dream?

                      My recommendation (and the state of affairs here) is to have lots of geckos roaming the house. That way they can breed faster than the cats can kill them.

                      Benefits:

                      Cat can wander the house freely
                      Gecko can wander the house freely
                      Save on cat food

                      Drawbacks:

                      Geckos don't seem to like to use litter boxes.

                        All that we see or seem, is but a dream within a dream.

                          The answer is "yes" in that dreaming about the death of a loved one can be legitimately disturbing, but the answer is "no" in that if somebody says "my mom died " then you should not say "I can totally empathize, I dreamed about my mom dying," or worse, "I can totally empathize, I dreamed about your mom dying."
