Saw what you did there.

The funny thing is I only realised what I did there once I hit the post button. That was completely unintentional.
Am I going crazy or has the text the forum uses gotten larger?

Not sure, but not complaining.

Funny we talk about this.
I woke up last week punching and alert, because I had a dream of a blend of stressful memories.
I personally wouldnāt even qualify it as a nightmare.
As far as symbolism in dreams go though. I wouldnāt go for colours, or objects. But a large number of my dreams are conversations. And who I talk about, and what I talk about tend to be rather telling.
Most of the time itās mundane, telling of the preceding days and their events. Some others itās more toward my entire life, and self.
I even had a few times when useful informations, interesting connections came to me through it.
Some are still nightmares though. They are rather blunt (itās realistic scenarios of me learning of the death of people I know), but they are still in a way symbolic. They are less about death, and more about regret, born from a general impression of personal alienation toward my own self, past, and those that are part of it.
Others are quite funny, for the absurdity of the conversation. The conversation itself is still normal, and makes sense. But itās about bits and pieces brought into it that are completely disjointed. Most of the time I can still track down why they came back to me, as it usually have some rhymes and reasons.
The why of some of those connections can be quite symbolic though.
Itās mostly thematic.
Other times itās mundane memories that decided to unearth themselves due to the thinnest, yet solid, of connection. This last one is the most captivating one to track down. And the reason I find them quite funny to look at when awake.
Special mention to the dreams I have when Iām sick. For some reason in those circumstances my mind decides to do an inventory of my memories and will make me dream of the most mundane, irrelevant memories in the world. I once dreamt of the way to use the circuit breaker in my old house, from when I was 8.

Every night, the dream is the same. Always the same image, the recurring nightmare that will give me no peace.

You could try speaking the words āMind, be silent! Mind, be at peace!ā
Have a fan on or something that produces white noise. Or use a website (even an app) called Noisli.
You could even try doing something called a body scan where you focus attention on your feet, then move up to your legs, etc. That, or focus your attention on some external stimuli. Anything to remove your focus from nagging thoughts.
Iād even suggest looking into meditation, butā¦ Letās not go crazy here. 
And just a reminder (totallynotachancetopushmytopic)

If by important you mean Joelās child - yes, that did happen. But thatās just part of the story. The story is Ellie is immune to the spores, Joel has to protect her on the way to finding (whoāll weāll later discover to be) a relative or father(?) of Abby, then becomes too attached to her to allow her to die. If anything itās kind of a story of a fatherās love, but also how stubborn Joel is to not do whatās best for the greater good. So in that light, heās being selfish, but also being protective of Ellieā¦ Too protective because he canāt let go (and deprives her of a choice to save humanity). Overall itās more tragic than redemptive. Hell, any hope of redemption is destroyed in 2.
Unless you mean the (important person) doctor that Joel killed. That left a window open for the sequel. But thatās cliche? 
Well, maybe.
and on that note, the sequel is an underrated masterstroke.

Iāve thought of a meme but never saw it though. Not yet anyway. Youād have Abby on one side, then almost any of the female characters from the current Street Fighter gamesā¦ But anyway.
Abby just looks weird being as muscly as she is. Iām not saying itās a bad look (and Iām sure that fulfills a kink for some people) but I canāt help but laugh at how ridiculous it seems given the state of society/civilization in what is essentially a post-apocalyptic world. But I suppose itās not impossible she couldāve stumbled onto a duffle bag full of roids somewhere while scavaging for resources.
did you miss the part of the game where theyāve built a mini society inside a stadium? with plenty of food and gym gear. getting muscular in that context wouldnāt be weird imo. women can absolutely get to her level without steriods, what are you talking about bro lmao

I personally donāt find her looks very appealing (her facemodel is beautiful tho) but that doesnāt take away from the games overall quality.
Never played it. Only watched a few letās plays on yt and 2 or 3 āmajor scenesā 
. But Iāll take your word for it.
how i love when people criticise things they donāt know anything about

The only thing I criticized was the way Abby looked. How exactly does that require playing the game?
Edit: Even after being enlightened on the āsituationā - she still looks odd, IMO.
For example, take someone that finds the herb Cilantro to taste like soap. Cilantro will still not suddenly stop tasting like soap to them after it being explained why it tastes like soap.
