Do you daydream in the first person or the third person?

[Exterous]

All of a sudden I realized the other day that I only ever daydream in the 3rd person. So - how does the rest of ATOT daydream? Any thoughts on what makes someone daydream in 3rd vs 1st?

WTH is 1st person and third person? I can't answer the poll.

my day dreams are pretty simple.

Seeing a cute girl. Getting 5 minutes of enjoyment from a video game.
Not gaining any more weight.

Yeah, I'm pretty lame.

Yes but is your lameness 1st person or third?

1st person, I guess? I think I'm usually just in a realm of general concepts at that point, without much of a need for any person to be there at all, first or third.

Dreams - those are 1st person, though usually not with any other people present. If there are people, they're almost invariably trying to kill me.

Both, but with a tendency towards third person. I like to imagine myself as excellent at everything and loved by everyone, watching myself being interviewed on television all dolled-up and charming.

What - that doesn't happen in real life?

i never thought about it but i daydream in first person. however, my dreams at night can be either.

 

[Durvelle27]

1st person

 

[Arcadio]

Mostly 1st person. Once in a while I dream in 3rd person.

I do either, depending on whatever it is I'm daydreaming about.

 

[John Connor]

I fucking hate language arts and I often day dream in second person killing an English teacher.

 

[Matthiasa]

Both and possibly more.

 

[Zodiark1593]

Almost exclusively daydream in third-person.

Dreams themselves are also usually third person, though, I've had a disturbingly realistic dream just last night. None too pleasant either as it involved me getting killed. First person at that too, staring down a gun barrel.

 

[John Connor]

I always win in dreams. Sometimes I'm battling zombies or other things and I carry an arsenal. My favorite weapon it seems in dreams is the MP5.

 

[Attic]

3rd person almost exclusively for both daydreaming and dreaming.

Daydream about sex more than anything, muff diving ftw.. that and burgers.

Dream about spiders and pooping. Used to have lucid dreams where I could fly, even though it was inside a dream it is one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had. Now my dreams are literally shit. Hope I haven't turned into such a sorry asshole as my dreams suggest.

Spiders and pooping??? LOL!
