I need to get into a different industry
Last night, I dreamt that the major executives of Funcom were attempting to dominate the world with some kind of enormous Metal Gear-like weapon.
I was witnessing this on a highway in my car, greatly distressed, so I emailed Ragnar Tornquist, Funcom employee and designer of The Longest Journey, with a brief but impassioned plea for salvation. The email read something like this:
“Ragnar,
I hope this message will do some good. I don’t know if you know what’s going on, and you might even be involved since your company is behind it, but for the good of the world you need to help.”
Mr. Tornquist then flew overhead and, using a strategy similar to that of Fox’s final smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, dropped an enormous tank onto his coworkers’ Metal Gear, and that is how the designer of The Longest Journey saved the world in my idiotic, inexplicable dreams.

Yeah. Pretty much the greatest blog-posted dream ever.

That is incredible.
I recently had a dream where I was at a super awesome house party where everyone was having a great time and then suddenly the doorbell rang and everyone became silent in anticipation, and then someone opened the door and it was… Peter Molyneux with a large entourage of party people!!! WOO!! They all totally crashed the party, and then Peter cleared a table with one swoop of his arms and started dancing on it.
For the record, Mr. Molyneux had come up in a conversation I had an hour or so before I’d gone to sleep…….. but it’s still weird.
