Dream (12/16/15): Slow Mouse Pad Leads to Virus Installation of Clash of Clans

Posted by

This dream, from last year, seems to have derived from my inability to grow accustomed to a new track pad mouse system that I had begun using at work.

In the dream, the tracking of the pad was too slow and too inaccurate. Negotiating page elements was a clumsy affair. At one point, I inadvertently clicked on a link on a page, which proceeded to install the fantasy game Clash of Clans. I couldn’t stop it. The mouse was moving too slow to cancel.

What I didn’t know is that this install was actually a virus, which was designed to flood its host system with a massive database of pointless maps.
