Vent: My dream last night had a broken door that took me 3 hours to open
I was trying to leave a normal looking house, but the front door knob was a tiny gear that needed a specific sequence of turns, like a safe. I spent what felt like 3 hours trying combinations, and the 'right' one was just turning it left while thinking about my old cat. Has anyone else had a simple task in a dream balloon into a huge, weird project?

My brain did that to me with a coffee maker once. The dream version of me couldn't figure out how to pour water in the tank, it was like trying to solve a puzzle box lmao.

Hold up, let me argue the other side for a second. Maybe your dream brain was onto something. Coffee makers are weirdly complex for what they do. You've got the tank, the filter basket, that little switch on the side. In a dream state, your mind might just be pointing out how many steps we do on autopilot. It's like your subconscious is asking why we need a machine with buttons and lights just to get hot brown water.
