    Yes. I assume it is the brains way of preventing wetting the bed when needing to pee while too tired to awaken.

    But the dream where all our teeth fall out - I assume that is our brain trying reconcile how we only get two sets - which is some bullshit.

      I keep telling people but sharks really have it good. Infinite teeth, basically immune to cancer and no bones to break

      I’ve never had either one of those dreams… or car crashes, or only wearing underpants, or anything else I’ve heard is super common.

      Being lost in a crowd, though? Oh yeah. Conversations I don’t want to have? Yep. Back in school as an adult but it’s actually a gothic-style creepy graveyard with a major storm brewing? Absolutely.

      I’m curious about those dreams “everyone has”, but I don’t think I want to have them myself.
