We usually think of dreaming as the best part of sleep. But let's be real: Sometimes, dreams can get ... weird. This is especially true when folks from real life show up in whatever scenario our unconscious has concocted for the night. In an earlier Drift post, Amanda Hess advised that we should all feel more comfortable talking about our dreams with each other. But what if your dream involves a friend? Is it always a good idea to tell them what happened? To help with that tricky decision, we've created this super-scientific, Clickhole-esque interactive dream interpreter. Use it to analyze your dream and to determine whether you should share your reverie—or bury it in the deep, deep dark forever.
