    He said "I Have Dream." have. most pointedly, not "had." so emphatic was he on this point, that he repeated the phrase over and over. but, unless the man was sleepwalking, how could this be true? i mean, the meaning of the word is clear.

    inspired by Lileks.

    Holy **** are you trolling this blatantly?

    In case you dont realize it, words can have more than 1 definition. The random house dictionary defines dream as followed.


    1. a succession of images, thoughts, or emotions passing through the mind during sleep.
    2. the sleeping state in which this occurs.
    3. an object seen in a dream.
    4. an involuntary vision occurring to a person when awake.
    5. a vision voluntarily indulged in while awake; daydream; reverie.
    6. an aspiration; goal; aim: A trip to Europe is his dream.

    Let me bold the important definition. Not to mention how is it ****ing lying to use a noun slightly out of context (which he's not) That's improper use of grammar (which King doesnt do), not lying.

    And most importantly, why the hell is this worthy of a thread? Good god, just stop it.

    I too have a dream. That one day basso will be banned from starting threads in the D&D so we can begin the healing process free from the trolls who seek to divide us! Can I get an Amen!

    Basso,

    This is probably why your only friend is Fox News.

    You're disgusting.

    Go do something with your life.

    "Dream" as in goal/wish, not a dream as in sleeping. :p
