I was actually the same way with stealthfan, until he talked about that dream he had:
I had a dream a few weeks back where I was in a vaguely sci-fi future. I'm talking like Gattaca type future, no floating cars and shit.
I find my mother's car vandalized in a parking lot and I am very concerned about her. I continue on to work and decide I have to divulge information with my boss who is Tom Hanks. He's a really important dude (Tom Hanks isn't Tom Hanks in the dream, if that makes sense) and I am apparently an underling.
I work in what looks like a crazy cool library and as I go to talk to Hanks his guards stop me and the head of security tells me no. The head of security is the shrink from The Sopranos. I force my way through to talk to Hanks and he is sitting in a chair surrounded by some kids, reading to them. I tell him it's super important and he tells me it's fine and it can wait. Unsatisfied I blurt out that someone is planning on killing him. I immediately move away from the children knowing that he will do the same and I continue telling him that I heard of this plot. I don't remember the rest of the conversation but I remember why the security teams distrusts me. It turns out that I am a serial killer, that through a recent breakthrough in technology, has been reformed. Hanks basically uses me as a success story, showing how the program works, but logically keeps me far away because I used to be a serial killer. I am basically a show pony, and nobody within the organization actually trusts me or wants me around.
I should note that I am not actually myself in the dream. It isn't my reflection (I look like Willem Dafoe and have a voice I don't recognize) and my mother isn't actually my mother but some random lady I've never seen before. I am a character within the dream, and I only have fleeting lucidity as this character. There was a really pimping ass shopping center I walked by in the dream too. Also I am not the one trying to kill Hanks, my character wants to keep him safe.
