Dream Journal 1: Super Mario infects my PC

09-25-2024

About two days ago I dreamed I was on my computer, looking through one of my brother's old hard disk drive, and inside there was a Super Mario Bros fangame called "Mario Forever" (which exists in real life and mostly of the versions are a Trojan). And I WELL KNOW that it was a virus, but I accidently click on it, and just in a few seconds, my entire computer had gone into a "Super Mario Mode". The wallpaper was now Super Mario Bros Wii and my internet browser had a Mario Forever toolbar, as well as several open tabs about Mario. The most insane part was that I was genuinely in panic, and I was scared because I couldn't change my wallpaper back (Yes, that was the only thing that worried me LOL).

Right after that, I wished I could go back in time, and I suddenly woke up from the dream with the greatest relief of my life. I remember thinking something like "Oh right, Mario isn't real".
