You can not read when you are dreaming! Dreaming takes place in the "creative" hemisphere of the brain (which is why they often make no sense). Reading is handed by the "logical" hemisphere, so you do not have the ability to comprehend printed words in your dreams.

Cool, eh?
 
I've dreamt that I was simply driving down the street, reading all the signs....

I can most certainly remember being able to comprehend the words on the signs. 😛

No. Not really. What's cool is how the Egyptians built their pyramids back in the day.

I have read in dreams. That "fun fact" isn't true for everyone 🙂

Now, here is an interesting fact:
If you mix 50% oxygen with 50% acetylene in a plastic bag, then tape a fuse to it, then light the fuse, it makes a boom.

And yes I've written in my dreams.

If you look past the fact I was naked and writing them on the inside of a bath tub, not only was I writing, but I was rhyming the words!

agh!

I used to watch that movie all the time when I was young.

I however, trying to recall that part, think I've supressed like 3/4th's of that movie do to repeated and excessive mental trauma.

I honestly can't remember any of it wtf?

This girl and I used to watch it ever friday / saturday night when I was like 8 for about 6 months.

What the hell, all I can remember is a sailboat? A paper one? and him being a spider in the end I think, and them running through the sheets and a guy with asthma?

I'm going to get that movie this weekend. I have some catching up to do.

I've had similar experiences. I've heard this "fact" before, too.
 
After seeing that movie, I used to take my stuffed clown off my dresser and put it behind my desk. Then push my desk up against it so it could not come alive. 😀 I think that movie scared a lot of kids in its days.
