The meaning of life
Dreams have the ability to nullify your sense of logic and reason sometimes, and when this happens you have all kinds of metaphysical revelations that quickly fade into absurdity as soon as you wake up and realize how stupid it actually is.
There’s a ton of fun stuff and references going on in the dream backgrounds. If you manage to make sense of all of them, you’ll win the award of Most Awesome Person Ever!
Edit: Since someone in the comments already got all the references right:
First two backgrounds are from Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. The second one is a bunch of mathematical ways you can get 42, here are the more obscure ones explained: C5 is the 5th Catalan number. Mo is Molybdenum (atomic number 42). The cake with a six on top refers to the 6th cake number. 101010 in binary, 52 in octal, and 2A in hexadecimal. 10! seconds (10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) is exactly 42 days. That pixelated plane is from the arcade game 1942. The number of dots on two dice is 42. If you assign a number to each letter (A=1, B=2, etc.), then F+I+V+E sums 42.
The third background contains many elements from Monty Python’s movie, The Meaning of Life.
Welp, got the Hitchiker’s Guide reference. So I’m at least one third the most awesome person ever. That’s good enough for me!
Yes. Hitchhiker’s Guide to the galaxy is awesome. Silly me, she said 42!
Awesome as always 😀 and yep, happened to me too…and every time i shower >.< keep up the good work and have a happy day 😀
Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy!
Love it.
Yup,dream can be and usually be crazy.
You won’t believe how many times I wake up with “WTH I was dreaming about,it just don’t make sense” pop out my head.Yet,for some reason which I still have no idea why,some of the ramdon elements that in the dream will really be happened years later.
Sadly,there’re just to many of ramdon elements in one dream so I never know which one is the one to be happen,and even I got that Déjà Vu when it really happen,it’s always small not important things,like drive passing a local shop that just recently removed to a new loacte.
(dreamed about that exact moment when I trun my head to see that exact view years ago,but whats the point of this.Dan it,why can’t I just dream about the next lottery wining number.XD)
Heh. I know what the whole Déjà Vu thing is like.
This is obviously meant to make you keep posting stuffs!
(not that it’s not also an honest compliment. I’ll keep coming back to check if there are new posts!)
I’ve had these moments before haha
I’m like “It’s just so obvious!” then I try to explain it and it’s gone
Hmm. Let’s see. Dream background #1 is a Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy reference, background #2 is a TON of mathematical ways to come up with 42, and background #3 is stuff from Monty Python’s “The Meaning of Life”. Appropriate. :3
And the noted revelation even makes sense, in a way; the sublimation process is the way the mind takes base urges and represses them, changing them into socially acceptable behaviour (at least according to Freud), and noetic refers to mental processes. So the meaning of life, according to her dream, could be being aware of the changes of those base desires into different behaviour, and knowing that those desires exist in the first place, possibly acting upon them instead of repressing them.
Or I could be talking out of my arse, I don’t have a degree in psychology, just a vague knowledge of some odd words. XD
Ding ding ding ding! You just won the Award for the Most Awesome Person Ever! Congratulations!
And yeah, that last bit is sort of trying to mean something that’s close to what you’ve described, but in the most unintelligible way possible ^^
Yay! I won an award! ^_^;;
“Life is but a dream”?!?!?! 😉
Recently I was sleeping and dreaming about someone telling me how to deal with my money, economical theories, and when I wake up I still hear the person’s voice and it’s just random words and sentences that aside from the word “money” had absolutely nothing to do with dealing with my money and meant absolutely nothing.
The hitchhikers reference is awesome. I thought I should say.
All of those words mean something, and yet kinda not.
