I thought that since it was lucid, something like that
wouldn't happen. I thought in a lucid dream, it would be more true and less ambiguous, less tainted by enigmatic subconcious symbols.
I also would not have done what I did in the dream if I had not be aware that I was dreaming, so I can't imagine how it would have gone if I hadn't realized it was a dream. Next time, though, I'm going to take the "dancing-half-naked-in-the-street" option, because I think it would have been a lot more fun than getting laughed at by a bunch of scruffy men.

Third step is programming a dream outright, before you go to sleep, so at the first moment of lucidity or perhaps even going into the dream from the get go, you get the dream you want.

I don't want a specific dream. I just wish I could talk directly to my subconscious like you did and ask questions on certain subjects.
Anyway, I was pleased to have a lucid dream-and so unexpectedly
. It was still kind of fun even though it didn't go how I wanted it to.
