I regularly have dreams where I'm trying to use a smartphone but can't do anything because I can't read the screen and Pacific because it feels like I've been hacked.

My vape also regularly falls apart in dreams, and back when I smoked lighters never worked.

I think that the part of our brain that processes these mechanics are shut down when we sleep, so when our dream self tries to use them they just don't function.

Could come into play where punching in a dream is impossible and running is difficult.

I ain't no brain doctor, or nothin'.

    My dreams are usually pretty communicative and applicable to things going on in my life. Glasses breaking when I was starting to have a drinking problem, bombing theatrical performances when I wasn’t acting authentically in my relationships, etc.

    Not saying it’s applicable for every dream, but I think our unconscious mind is pretty communicative with us when it has something to say.

    Glad someone's dreams actually have meaning. Mine make no sense and I forget most of them by the time I wake up. The best I can hope for is getting a few seconds of lucid dreaming where I can can fly around for a bit until the dream ends (whenever the lucid thing happens, the dream seems to fall apart and I have trouble keeping myself from waking up).
