The best one I've ever had... hmmmm.... it'd have to be flying. I was just flying around the buildings where I live. It felt so real and only happened once in my whole life.
How about you guys? Ever have a dream so awesome you regretted waking up?

Where'd you learn how to do that Jerk? That's just so awesome.
So where do you like flying? In the real world, a friend and I buzzed a lake at 500 feet in a 2 seater, was the best time I've ever had. I'd love to try that at 5 feet in a dream.

No, I just woke up one night after a series of flying dreams and figured out the pattern in all of them was that I could fly and that I was getting better at it. Seriously, when I was four I went into a tree and got eaten by it so I didn't try it again for a long time but I got to the point where I could emulate Superman if I gained enough control over the dream.
The fact that I was eaten by a tree should give you some clue as to what my dream worlds are like. (Fucking incredible.)

I don't accurately remember my dreams. Describing them would be like watching random intervals of a movie, so I think it's pretty awesome that anyone can recollect them to a point.

Man, why do you even bother being awake? I mean, I suppose we'd mourn your loss, but, really? Full control over a dream world? It'd take pretty long to get tired of that, I imagine.

This is going to sound kind of gay, but it has to be said: this is all only really limited by your imagination. The more interesting things you read, see, do and hear while you're awake expands the capabilities of your dreams.
Try to think of just one thing every day that's so cool it sends an involuntary shiver down your spine. I think that's what it would be like to exercise your dreaming capabilities. I could be wrong, but it works for me.

I had a dream looong ago that had 4 orphan brothers, they discovered they could fly and stuff.
I remember the feeling of being flying was so great.
The dream had a deep story, too. They were beaten by their foster parents almost every day, until the day they discovered they could fly. When they flew off to flee their raging step father, the step father got a shotgun (whut?, yeah), and killed one of the brothers. When I woke up, I wanted to write a book out of it
I have no idea why I dreamed this, I'm not orphan, and I have only have an older sister >_<
Too many movies, I guess?

I once had a dream with explosions, and monster trucks, and exploding grandmothers that were also on fire.
I didn't know how to react to it.

@ Lycan - Reminds me of Radio Flyer in a way.
All of my dreams involve either massive amounts of money (the good ones) or horrific, terrifying mutations (the questionable ones).

When I was a kid, I had nightmare with aliens (I mean, the aliens of acid blood that tried to eat Ripley's ass).
So, one night, I was dreaming with them, chasing down my friends, and following me while a runned (A dream that almost always finished with me being devoured).
But then, a voice in my head shouted "PAUSE!!".
And the alien that was about to eat me, stopped in the air. Then I though: "Is that my dream?" And the voice said "Yes".
Then I realized that I wanted a shotgun... and it appeared in my hands.
I shooted to the inmovilized alien, and then I started chasing the rest of the aliens, while they runned away from ME. It was great!.
Some week after, I dreamed that I had a pet alien. After that, I wasn't scared of aliens anymore

Hmm... No, sorry, I dream so rarely that the point is moot. But I suppose that time I dreamt that I was sitting in my room, and there was a parade of all my friends outside that came to meet me, can be counted as my favourite dream of all time. Still a bit boring, though.

Best dream everz huh? Lets see...
I awoke in a realm of nothing. There stood a door, I walked to the door and grabbed the handle. As I opened the door, I stepped into a world of chaos. I stared as I saw people shooting at each other and their was looters and muggings everywhere. I stared in disbelieve as one man was grabbed from behind and was being eaten before my eyes. The creature then looked up at me and hissed. It start trudging towards me as i swerved to the left and knocked it to the ground. As I tryied to recover from my shaking, it stood up and screeched. Suddenly thousand more came from corners and windows running, walking, and/or crawling towards me. Before they could take me, A helicopter flew over head and a man grabbed me and pulled me in. As I blinked wildly at and and screamed "Where the hell am I!" He looked at me with a smile and replied " Welcome to Zombieland!" I smiled. It was a great dream.
Bet most of you can quess how it went.

Not long ago I had a dream that I was being chased by a huge monster. (Like the size of a house) I was so terrified that I felt like I could barely move.
Nightmares are way better than dreams.

Lucid dreaming is great if you can do it, though I don't do it much.
Trick is to trick your mind into going into the "dream state", which essentially means lying there keeping yourself awake by thinking but completely stopping moving your body. Absolutely everything. It requires massive self control to do, but when you can do it well, you can essentially shut it all off given time, and turn it back on when you want to.
At least, that's how it works for me. I always have a degree of lucidity in my dreams anyway...
As for my best dream, this was just something spontaneous, wasn't lucid:
I was working doing some job I enjoyed so much, though the dream didn't consist of that, I just knew that went on. The dream itself was me hanging out with a bunch of friends who I just fucking loved -so much-, one of whom was this awesome girl who was with me, if you catch my drift... We were in some field, talking about stupid shit, on a summers day, and world peace and all that crap had pretty much been solved.
tl;dr Best dream ever was of a perfect world.
To be honest, being able to fly would be damn cool, but c'mon, perfect world, you can't disagree with that.

I remember I had a lucid dream that was similar to a nightmare. I realized I was dreaming but when I tried to control it, I couldn't. So I just ended up sitting on a park bench trying to make a hot chick appear for a few hours. It was bull.

The best I can remember was an infinitely recursive lucid dream.
I was dreaming and had some adventures before "waking up".
After realizing that I was still in a dream, I decided the easiest way to wake myself up was to pinch my arm or something, so I tried -- but was numb all over and couldn't feel a thing. So I walked into my living room and stood on my head, hoping that falling over would wake me up.
I fell over and woke up in my bed again, before quickly realizing I was still dreaming.
Shortly afterwards, I started freaking out at being trapped in my own dream, unable to actually wake up.
Then I woke up.

I spent about three gullible months trying out astral projection, then gave up when I realised it was massively fake. Then, about a year ago, I randomly realised that I was dreaming while I was in a dream. It was so fucking crazy. I flew up and I could see my whole town. Actually, it was kinda like Seg's recursive dream in that I would try and wake up and end up being back inside my house.

Aww, I envy you guys. I know I get dreams but I don't remember them after waking up. Try as hard as I might in trying to remember.
Except for that one dream where I was just sitting in some couch, eating Peanut Butter Sandwiches. Then I woke up. See, and that was the most memorable one.

Any dreams i have involving supernatural anything usually doesn't involve me actually DOING any of the supernatural things. It's usually me running around someplace.
I'd say the BEST ones i have are the ones that involve my girlfriend. (Not like that, you.) Partly because it's cool that way and partly because i get to laugh at myself about cliche it is in the morning.
It's cool sometimes when i'm able to continue dreaming into the ringing of my alarm clock. I'll never forget one time when i was a kid where i was somehow looking at myself in the third person, talking to some other people in my house. The alarm clock rings. I (the me i'm looking at) say "gotta go" and run up the stairs behind me. Then i wake up. Simultaneously freaky and awesome.

I should make songs about my dreams. I think they'd go "EXPLODING GRANDMAS THAT ARE ALSO ON FIRE YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH *guitar solo*", and then I'd find a better job because selling an album where all 10 songs are the same isn't very smart in retrospect.

I had a lucid dream when I was younger, involving Zombies at my old school, my head-teacher had turned into one, and had turned the whole school, aside from me and a couple of friends, anyhow, the head-teacher had ordered me to see her, but i ran into the toilets instead and locked the door, struggling to open my eyes... It was one of those dreams where your eyelids refuse to open and they feel really heavy... If anyone's experienced that. Anyhow, I was wishing for someway to escape when suddenly i found a trap door and escaped through it. Ended up in a comic store. Pure heaven!

The one dream that sticks out in my mind is when I was on what looked like my school campus and it was dark to the point where I could only see about 2 yards in front of me. I felt completely conscious so it might or might not have been a lucid dream and I remember just walking around. Nothing really eventful happened except that I had what seemed to be completely control of my body. I still feel like there was something more to that dream and I have thought of it every day since I had it.
