It has never occurred to me to try and tell people they are dreaming in my own lucid dreams. Fascinating experience, Isis, and also absurdly hilarious.
The latest fascination from dreamland for me has been trying to swim in dream-water. There's no laws of physics except that which the subconscious mind believes in dreamland, so things get really weird and kind of scary underwater. I know, in the little part of my mind which is conscious, that the water isn't real, and that I can breathe if I want to, but the part of my mind which is in control won't allow me to. So I breathed out (with no bubbles!), then found myself suffocating until I jerked awake and gasped in some nice actual physical oxygen back in space/time.
