This man just generalized 8 billion peoples’ dreams.
Gatekeeping has no limits. You can probably even gatekeep gatekeeping.
Honestly you gotta have a lot of knowledge for gatekeeping, not many people are suited to gatekeep /s
Not in regular dreams for me. However i used to habe a recurring dream where i accidentally broke my phone display every time. I thibk it’s because I was poor and broke my phone display a lot.
My only guess for why my phone never shows up is that it just works. I never really drop it and I don’t spend much of my day on it. But I can understand if you drop your phone a lot why it might be popping up!
I’ve had many dreams where I’ve tried to use my phone but the display is all glitched out and distorted, or totally non responsive, or the battery immediately dies. Phones are never useful and always frustrating in my dreams.
You don’t know my dreams
I have dreamed I was sitting using my phone and messaging friends and family before.
It was odd too because they were legit conversations that would be things my actual friends and family would talk about or bring up but when I would make up, confused at why I was asleep, I’d look at my phone and find these conversations never actually happened.
When I try to remember the conversations it all comes out as upper and lowercase letters and numbers. Like my brain is trying to encrypt the messages I got in these dreams.
I’ve definitely used my phone in dreams before. People have also said that you can’t read properly in dreams and that’s one way to know you’re dreaming (I was interested in lucid dreaming for a bit), but words look just fine to me when I’m dreaming
Same. I’ve had phones and text in dreams. Another trigger is supposed to be looking at a clock and it won’t look right but I’ve checked the time in dreams many times.
I’ve opened my eyes IRL trying to focus on the letters on a sign in a dream.
Oooo that’s interesting. Did it wake you up?
When I was around 8 years old, I lost a new issue of Nintendo Power in a Service Merchandise store. That may be the most aged statement I’ve ever made.
Anyway, this was a very distressing experience for me; my disappointment and loss of hope sticks with me to this day. I vividly remember dreaming about finding it some time after. However, in my dream I recall flipping through the pages only to find garbled nonsense, page after page.
This was actually more distressing to my confused, young mind. I don’t even try to read in dreams anymore, but maybe I should; it would be a dead giveaway.
I still miss that issue. It was the Dr. Mario issue for anyone wondering.
RIP Dr Mario issue of Nintendo Power :(
I dreamt about my phone. I sometimes suffer from false awakenings (thinking you have woken up, bit you are still dreaming). So, I thought that I had woken up and everything looked like normal. Then I got my phone to check the time and instead of the time, there was a weird cube swirling around on my phone. So, then I knew I was still dreaming.
Then I wanted to wake up, but I couldn’t, so I panicked and it became a nightmare where I suddenly saw a ghost in my room that was floating around with her head in a very unnatural position. Then she started screaming and I woke up. (But this is not the important part, the important part is that there was a phone in my dream.)
Those dreams are the most terrifying. Maybe it’s just me who never sees their phone lol
Yes, it was very scary. Maybe that is why I still remember it and the phone.
Maybe you have nicer stuff to dream about than phones. :-)
That’s just not true.
I worked at a Verizon store for 9 years. I definitely had dreams about phones. Usually them getting wet.
Phones definitely show up in dreams.
I dreamed just the other day that I broke mine.

Whenever I have a phone in my dream I can’t type on it. Just endless typos and gibberish and frustration. Sometimes kicks me into lucid dreaming if I pick up on it not working
I have a recurring problem of dialing 911 in my dreams and the call never goes through, different dreams but anytime I try calling for help in any of them the call never connects when I need it to.
I’ve had multiple dreams where people from my past messaged me something meaningful, but before i can fully read it, I accidentally scroll past it and spend the rest of the dream frantically trying to find it again.
For me I had a phone trigger a lucid dream because I noticed a small discrepancy. Guess that proves how much I’m on it.
Same, a phone triggered lucidity for me too. But in this case it was an office desk phone, and the text was just wrong on the screen.
The difference between dreaming of a book vs dreaming the story the book told. The phone is simply a medium, unless it acquires some other kind of association tied more directly to the actual object.
My thought, anyway.
