More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

On the other hand there's no guarantee that you'd remember the dream if you were to sleep on.

Biggest mistake in regards to this that still haunts me actively was using a song I enjoyed as an alarm. I was young and stupid. Now i can't help but hate that song whenever I hear it. Still.

No but actually tho!

You set your alarm because you have to get up. Dreams are destroyed by an obligation that forces you to wake up earlier than natural. Usually work, or something that prepared you for work like schooling.

But think of all the nighmares interrupted as well.

Have an angry upvote. Literally true.

You don't think the sun has destroyed more dreams in both figurative and literal senses?

Or capitalism?

Sometimes this is a very, very good thing. Destroyed dreams are not always a bad thing.

Got one destroyed by the alarm clock just this morning.

Maybe if you count the rooster, and Clugg banging on rocks outside the cave as alarm clocks.

This equivocates between two meanings of "dream."
