gonzalesna 1 #2 December 21, 2008 QuoteIs it bad form to tell someone else that you had a bounce dream about them? No... it's just a dream.Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LuckyMcSwervy 0 #6 December 21, 2008 Yep - bad form. I wouldn't want to know. Plus, someone bouncing means there's going to be news of a pregnancy. Always be kinder than you feel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tbrown 26 #9 December 21, 2008 I'm not sure I'd want to jump with someone who told me something like that.

I mean I certainly wouldn't mention to a dude with a wife/girlfirend that I had a fuck dream about them, you know? I guess I just ASSUME if someone's single there wouldn't been any drama with just telling them, whether I truly wanted to bang them or not. Naive? Always be kinder than you feel.

popsjumper 2 #14 December 22, 2008 I had a premonition that you had a dream that I bounced. Sandy would just love that one...seeing as how the heart attack idea hasn't happened yet. And NO! I'm NOT pregnant...although if I were, I'd be one rich SOB right about now. You're probably thinking about Chuckie. He gets screwed a lot. Uh, David...should I be cashing in my 401K and Pension Plan before my next jump? My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

The_Don 0 #16 December 22, 2008 OK. Let's change it a bit. Would you tell someone you had a dream that they were killed in a car crash? Is there a difference? Most of us skydive AND drive a car. I am NOT being loud. I'm being enthusiastic! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skittles_of_SDC 0 #21 December 22, 2008 Yes, it's bad form. Don't tell them. edited to make it clear. you ask in the title if you tell them and in the actual post if it's bad form. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #23 December 22, 2008 Really? Here's a fun fact. Every time you get your rig on you are willing to bet your life that you will live to jump again. If that scares people maybe they shouldn't be jumping. What difference does it make if someone has a dream? The ONLY thing I can imagine would come of it is that the person in the dream may think a few extra times about emergency procedures. That may be my new line when I meet new jumpers.

BillyVance 35 #25 December 22, 2008 Quote Is it bad form to tell someone else that you had a bounce dream about them? I'd say it depends... Is the person in question a good, safe skydiver?
