Weird Dreams : Alternate Pokemon story line

So I had this dream where I was playing Pokemon for the Gameboy color/ Advance.
Walking through some route and heading towards a forest when a loud voice demanded me to turn around and go back.
Being the ultimate Pokemon trainer wannabe, I walked forward. A CG movie then played of lava pouring out of the entrance towards me and two giant ice breathing dragons flew from the direction of the forest firing shards of ice at me. (At this point I was thinking, wow, such cool effects before a boss fight. Pokemon has become so epic.)
I then summoned my twin headed fire and ice breathing mini dragon to fend them off. Ice head cools down the lava, fire head shoots fireballs and took out the two dragons. (I then thought, 'Wow, dual element boss fights.)
Feeling everything was calm again, my character casually walked into the forest only to be back slashed by what looks to be a Dragonite swiftly flying from behind.
For some reason, my pokeballs was picked up by a side character I met and my journey continued from there with that said character explaining my "death".

I then woke up....

Rant : My parents have no clue what they are doing with technology

I kinda understand why some shopkeepers decided to close down after decades of running their shops because of GST.
Some people just can't use computers and I find that very hard to understand due to my upbringing and me being surrounded by technology since I was young. A good example are my parents.

One pretends to know so much and another is totally clueless...
Probably the same how some actual tech experts laugh at my knowledge which is barely the tip of the iceberg. I'm not denying that in the eyes of these tech enthusiasts, I'm a noob but could be worse.

That's why some people pay hundreds for technical support because they have no clue at what they are doing and yet blames their tech support for being an idiot.

Weird Dreams: Shia Lebouf.. most hated person

So I had a dream last night.  I was having an adventure with this cute girl. A Viper challenge like adventure until we became self aware that we are in a dream then people in suits started appearing like those agents from the matrix.

We battled our way somehow with her having guns that magically appear from drawers, cupboards, hidden in various areas in the jungle.  Out of nowhere Shia lebouf appeared, took the girl and hid with her in a box. I opened the box and found both of them disappeared..... Fuck Shia lebouf.

Weird Dreams : Sabah is full of trees

So I had a dream last night... where I was visiting a Sabah friend in ...Sabah
I was brought over to this secluded area in a jungle where I am to climb up this vine towards a hole among the tree branches. After going through, I see myself in a dimly lit maze/theme park like area made entirely of carpentry.
Multiple gimmicks, bridges, musical instruments (angklungs) hanging about on display where it'll move with each step you take on the floor.
After running around and messing with the area, an alarm started to sound and we were directed to two doors for an obstacle/ activity with different challenges. I entered one of the doors and in it is a room with a circular 'Wheel of Fortune' ish wooden wheel on the ground that lights up when you step on each selection.... I don't remember what happens after that...

Random thoughts of torture

Picture a mafia fish torturing innocent fishes by drying them out under the sun while birds start feeding on their flesh and insides at a fishing village.
