I had a weird ass dream last night. It goes as such:
I have a female ambigious friend, how asks me if I'd like to go to North Korea with her. I tell her of the fact that I'm an American, but she says 'Nah, it's ok. Just tell them you're from Canada. They have great food there!', so I agree. Next, She and I are in a big, fancy, guilded hotel-ish place in the capital of North Korea (my brain labed it as Seoul, but I know it's Pyongyang.) It's all pretty and nice. Then, she tells me she has some 'buisness', and tells me to hide in the button-alcove when the elavetor doors open. I do as told, and we go down to one on the basement levels (I think 5...) once the door opens, she takes a step out, and then exclaims (in korean, with english subtitles (!) ) 'What are you doing here?!', after which she is shot. While I'm hiding in the alcove still, I see a male hand grab something out of her pocket, then walk away. the elavator doors close, and I take it back up to the lobby, visibly shocked. I get find you can't take a plane from north korea to the US, to I take a plane to Tokyo (when in japan, I have a comfortable feeling, but it's still mixed with shock), then to the US. My mom (who is much skinner than my real mom) asks me what happened, and I say 'Nothing, oh nothing'. then the dream ends.
Any of you guys know how to interpret dreams? I normaly remember the remembered ones well.

In all seriousness, though, dreams don't really mean anything. They're jumbled assemblies of random memories and sensory data that try to come together into something coherent. While stress and the like can have an effect on your dreams, that's a symptom, not the cause. Don't worry about it.

Yeah I second that; for fun though however there is a site that contains a bank of various things that can occur or whatever in your dream and will give a meaning for it:

I personally think it's something that no one should take seriously, but it's fun to check out anyhow.
Murphy's Paradox: The more you plan, the more that can go wrong. The less you plan, the less likely your plan will succeed.
You underestimate the metaphorical potentials of the mind and its ability to network information. Dreams have been shown to be deeply intricate analogies to various memories and experiences from our waking lives. This does not mean that every single dream you have "means something," but they are certainly not necessarily random.
With global politics and all I don't wonder why a violent North Korea would appear in a dream. The hostile impressions of America don't surprise me much, either.
I'm not a very erudite interpreter, but the interesting parts, to me, were the exactly was taken from your friend's pocket and your mom being thinner than usual.
I don't know what it is, or exactly where I am, but I am just dripping wet of this really dark pitch black liquid. Light doesn't shine on it, it just drips all off my hands and is icky... Nothing really happens in the dream, but me making an icky black gooey mess. It's kinda creepy but it's not terrifying or anything. And then I wake up after 2minutes of it. I am a bit of an Obsessive compulsive cleaner, but not to any extremes or anything, so this really just comes out of nowhere...
EDIT: And no, I am not thinking of oil or scared about oil prices or have any sort of phobia against oil... so it's not oil.
Ironically, that doesn't mean you want to have sex with your mother!

Last night I had a dream that The Good, The Bad and The Ugly was a musical. Why? Because I rented it yesterday and I watched Bender's Big Score last night, which had a few musical numbers I didn't expect. So I can only assume that this dream was a combination of the two.
Just because they aren't random doesn't mean they have any importance. I can trace a lot of my dreams back to experiences and thoughts from within a few days, and not often are they ever meaningful.
Have you been playing Condemned 2? : o
For example, I've been having a dream each night that picks up from where I left off the night before. How does that happen?
Murphy's Paradox: The more you plan, the more that can go wrong. The less you plan, the less likely your plan will succeed.
I interpret Heretoinform's reocurrances this way; you're stuck somewhere, mentally, that is similar enough day by day that your subconscious continues to use the same backdrop with slightly different thought processes because you've been thinking along similar lines for many nights now. If you've been having the same kind of thoughts, a repetitive problem, some sort of worry that's spanned a few days, or even just a general feeling that stays, that tends to make your dreams repetitive -- sometimes to the point that they literally repeat themselves or recur in a series, like you're describing.
They also really tend to become a series if you dwell on it. If you spend all day thinking of the dream where you were in the underground temple to Pluto, you're fairly likely to pick that dream up again.
Personal example:
Your Venom?
Well, the dream is about a killer tracking me down and a dinosaur on the loose in the city, so some parts are intense, but most of it is light-hearted.
The best things about having a "series" of dreams is that, at least for me, I have some control over my dream (lucid dreaming). I think this happens because when I have a similar dream to the one I had before, I realize that it is a dream. It rocks, because I'm the one who made the dinosaur appear (I just thought it would be cool if a dinosaur appeared, and there he was!) and makes certain things happen and people show up at certain times.

You want to have sex with your mother. Most definitely
That would explain the ridiculously thick forest.

I'm pretty sure I know where the spiders came from, I'd been watching "The Giant Spider Invasion" episode of Mystery Science Theater, but everything else was a mystery.
