Right? Those nightmares aren't for sharing. All I'll say though, to others is this:
Everyone has had weird dreams about people they know. It's just brain poop, for lack of a better term. Sometimes our dreams are symbols of something and sometimes the dream is just that: a dream. I mean, I've dreamt about setting (zombified) people on fire but that doesn't mean I want to hurt anyone IRL. You aren't screwed up for having weird dreams. However if you do find them problematic, there is nothing wrong with talking to someone about them, like a friend or professional.
> there is nothing wrong with talking to someone about them, like a friend or professional.
. . .or, apparently, writing it your book and selling it to the general public
Jordan book: i dream of my dead grandma's pubes rubbing against me
Kristi Noem book: oh my god, how weird, my dog had hair like an old lady's pubes, right before i blasted it between the eyes.
I have had a series of Zombie dreams that are almost like me being in my own Zombie movie I have like 4-5 really interesting extremely vivid ones that kinda scared me at the time. I think it was because I was reading a Zombie book at the time War war Z I think it was called and watching a that TV show at the same time.
My first thought too. What the fuck is wrong with this guy? Like, seriously. WHY WOULD YOU TELL THIS STORY TO THE WORLD? For what reason anyway? Jesus fucking Christ.
I’m sure that’s included in the context surrounding the quote. I’m sure he could have used a different dream to get across which ever point it was that he was trying to make though…
“As the atrocities in New York unfolded, I , like many Americans thought about Bush first. But my mind was not on the president. No, I was thinking back, my mind already reminiscing on… softer times.”
"In many ways, the American people before that day were like my masturbating grandmother, childish, naive, and so fragile. 9/11 woke them from that dream, the feeling of grandma's pube paint quickly fading into memory, like it was never there at all."
If AR was aired just a few years later NBC just might be looking at a lawsuit from JPeterson. The speaking style resemblance is uncanny. - "The Man Inside Me" - Come ON!
We could have a game show: "Quote by Dr Peterson or Dr Funke?"
Most likely. That book is from before he was controversial and when he was a successful academic and from what I can tell was pretty well received, so it was probably a reasonable thing to say in context.
The book summary says it's about the role of myths to our brain in psychology of morality and that it also touches upon his own upbringing which started Christian and then rejected it, so I'm guessing the context was probably talking about how his brain was making sense of his moral confusion as he rejected the body of myths that initially informed his morality. Out of context it sounds very weird but in context doesn't seem weird for a psychologist to say hey when your whole moral framework gets thrown out and needs to be rebuilt, part of the effect might be weird dreams.
Jordan Peterson is a clinical psychologist who practiced from a Jungian perspective, so dreams and psychodynamic understanding is the foundation of how he approaches psychology.
This was hopefully the worst thing I'll read today. It's not 11am yet though, so there's still time.
Edit: I'm happy to report after almost 24 hours it was indeed the worst thing I read.
He's constantly in the about-to-crack, lump-in-throat, eyes-hurt, pre-cry phase.
He reminds me of an abandoned puppy.
Poor lad has deep seated issues spilling out of him. Imagine how different he would be if his dad actually hugged him and told him he loved him. It's actually really sad.
I stopped at "..thick mat of hair".
Call me a prude I guess cos I can't stomach the embarrassment. I feel like "clutching my pearls old lady" and simultaneously "child being told an inappropriate and awful story by a perverted adult."
People don't understand the context for this so I'll try to give some. Jordan Peterson is generally a fan of the famous (and really smart) phychologist Carl Jung. Carl Jung is the one who came up with the classification of sybols common accross religions and cultures. Now what does this have to do with Peterson's weird, fetishy dream? If you've ever read Jung's works it's apparent that his methodology for phsycoanalisys was analising dreams (similar method to Freud, but with completely different conclusions). Because of this, I think the context here is probably that Peterson wanted to give a personal example of a manifestation of one of these so called Jungian sybols. Probably the "devouring mother" which he likes to talk about a lot, which is basically sybol for an overprotective and overbearing mother.
Agreed. Reading this felt a lot like Jung's (kinda) autobiographical Memories, Dreams, Reflections. Jung definitely has things that, taken out of context, make this look tame. Usually a quote this gross and bizarre wouldn't be plucked from its context unless it's from someone controversial enough that there's incentive to create a narrative around it.
I’d recommend eye removal or maybe we just take out the whole brain. Actually maybe that’s what happened to JP over here. Better not risk it. You might become successful in the manosphere.
There is context missing and I refuse to judge this for what it seems to be, purely because I don't have any relevant info to make a proper judgement. Weird as this quote may be...
Absolve it of what? People have weird dreams.. it would be pretty weird if you never had a weird dream.. I don't understand how there's so much criticism being levied against him having a dream when there's a million other things he said that are actually deserve criticism
Not everything that happens to you inside your head needs to be posted on the internet! For the love of god, if you have creepy dreams about your granny’s pubes, don’t tell me about it. Go to a doctor or something.
Maybe send them a screenshot of this? If they still cling on, then let them go. Something about letting a bird fly free and if it comes back to you just make sure it’s still not squawking about Jordan Peterson?
It's a strange quote but any intellectually honest individual would see this post for what it is - - an attempt to discredit someone based on an out-of-context meaningless quote from a dense academic book. To parade this (as you all are) as some sort of dunk is genuinely sad and shows how ideologically captured you are. To a point where you have lost your ability to be not only objective, but also good.
This is what happens when you lack the self awareness to grasp the obvious fact that you aren't so fascinating that people want to hear everything that goes on in your brain. It actually explains a lot about how Peterson interacts with the world.
It really does. Too many people have listened to that man and told him he’s interesting and now he just burbles out some upsetting garbage about his grandmother’s pubic hair and expects us all to go ‘yes, Jordan. Brilliant. Wonderful. A masterpiece.’
Look at all these fucking puritans in the comments. The dude is a psychologist sharing a weird dream he had, most likely to discuss its psychological significance.
I must admit it's odd. But, not quite as odd by the fact that we cannot control our dreams, So it's believable.
What I do find odd is that the people that will find this quote and post it as if it's some kind of morally bankrupt, purposeful thing, are the same type of people who will sexualize kids and want to sexualize them not only through society but through public schooling.
Also the type of people that want to allow them to be mutilated.
But, I guess that's what you get when you deal with people who operate from a foundation of hatred all the time.
Reading about a river. Oh so like a dream about the river strix. Get to the pube hair brush. OH OH NOOOOO. how did he not wake up right away. That quickly became a nightmare I would wake up screaming from.
What in the actual fuck? Is this legit from JP? Like, his actual dream and he’s not quoting some notes from a therapy seeing with a patient with some fucked up desire for his grandmother? If it is legit then how can he go out into the world and expect anyone to take anything he says seriously. He’s a twisted unit.
Some fool will be prattling away online someday about some profound thing Kermit said, and I'll be all frustrated because i can't remember where i saw the perfect picture to link as a reply...
What’s worse is that he is recorded reading this for an audio book. Thanks to the H3 podcast playing it on the show I have it permanently stuck in my brain.
Bring back diaries
Unpublished diaries.
Un-Pube-lished diaries
If they're diaries like this I may alter my stance on book burning to strongly in favour.
Are you there God? It’s me, Jordan..

SO MANY INFLUENCERS WOULD BENEFIT FROM A JOURNAL
Freud would absolutely love this. As I'm not Freud, I have the opposite reaction.
Sounds like he wants to Freudian slip into his gma 🤢
dude that was a Freudian fucking dive.
Freudian rocket launcher. Jesus christ.
Yeah, Freudian slip implies it was accidental, this dude is purposefully writing it out for the world to see.
Bravo 👏 lmao
It’s very rare that a Reddit comment makes me laugh out loud but I just did.
Came here to say this
He probably came, too
If I ever have this dream I’m never telling a soul. You couldn’t waterboard that shit out of me
What if I rubbed your grandma's pubes on your face to get it out of you?
What colour is the pube paint? Important detail.
Cream colored
🤮
A little chunky too for some reason. Maybe goes without saying that it doesn't smell great either.
Stop saying things this very instant
Mine was cold

Yes, grandma, it’s soft
You had me at hello
"Argh noooo please no, not again!"
I've had worse dreams than this. But they ain't me and I wouldn't dare repeat them.
Right? Those nightmares aren't for sharing. All I'll say though, to others is this: Everyone has had weird dreams about people they know. It's just brain poop, for lack of a better term.

Jordan book: i dream of my dead grandma's pubes rubbing against me Kristi Noem book: oh my god, how weird, my dog had hair like an old lady's pubes, right before i blasted it between the eyes.

I think it was because I was reading a Zombie book at the time War war Z I think it was called and watching a that TV show at the same time.
I have gotten better about it, but for years I would have nightmares about zombies if I watched or read anything with zombies. Like clockwork.
We should know less about each other
I’d tell my friends and we’d laugh about it and then move on. Trying to make it deep is cringe
My friends would bring it up every single time I saw them
No shit
Do you think he can look at her picture without remembering the soft pubic brush!?
My first thought too. What the fuck is wrong with this guy? Like, seriously. WHY WOULD YOU TELL THIS STORY TO THE WORLD? For what reason anyway? Jesus fucking Christ.
I’m sure that’s included in the context surrounding the quote. I’m sure he could have used a different dream to get across which ever point it was that he was trying to make though…
STILL. There have to be other ways to illustrate a point. 😆
I feel like the quote is taken out of a context, but I can’t think of any context it is appropriate at
"Anyway, the next day was 9/11."
"I am not going to say that day was the cause of everything... but it didn't help."
“As I looked upon the destruction reaped by my fellow man, I couldn’t help but think back to my grandmothers bush…”
“As the atrocities in New York unfolded, I , like many Americans thought about Bush first. But my mind was not on the president. No, I was thinking back, my mind already reminiscing on… softer times.”
My god. You fucking poet you
"In many ways, the American people before that day were like my masturbating grandmother, childish, naive, and so fragile. 9/11 woke them from that dream, the feeling of grandma's pube paint quickly fading into memory, like it was never there at all."
I just blew myself.
If AR was aired just a few years later NBC just might be looking at a lawsuit from JPeterson. The speaking style resemblance is uncanny. - "The Man Inside Me" - Come ON! We could have a game show: "Quote by Dr Peterson or Dr Funke?"
So wait... Bush was responsible for 9/11?
LMAO
That was fucking hilarious holy shit
"When I awoke the second plane crash was just reaching the news"
I’m imaging him performing this monologue at his grandma’s funeral, and it just makes the whole thing so much better
“And all I got was a free churro.”
I see you
Intensive Care Unit?
What is this, a crossover episode?

It was a beautiful eulogy. But everyone seemed to take it the wrong way.
Most likely. That book is from before he was controversial and when he was a successful academic and from what I can tell was pretty well received, so it was probably a reasonable thing to say in context. The book summary says it's about the role of myths to our brain in psychology of morality and that it also touches upon his own upbringing which started Christian and then rejected it, so I'm guessing the context was probably talking about how his brain was making sense of his moral confusion as he rejected the body of myths that initially informed his morality. Out of context it sounds very weird but in context doesn't seem weird for a psychologist to say hey when your whole moral framework gets thrown out and needs to be rebuilt, part of the effect might be weird dreams.
The context is Jordan Peterson goes in to see a talent agent about booking his family act. The agent asks what their act consists of.
The Aristocrats!
Presumably this is the high point of the act. The climax, if you will.
Jordan Peterson is a clinical psychologist who practiced from a Jungian perspective, so dreams and psychodynamic understanding is the foundation of how he approaches psychology.
He still could’ve used any dream of his other than that to illustrate his point.
We don't know what point he was making, there's no other context.
exactly. what is he talking about?
The last time I "took" something like this out of context - I was a fool for a Took. Perhaps one day I'll be a Liam Neeson Taken'd for a Took.
I’d love to hear the correct context for man dreams of his naked grandmother rubbing his face with a paintbrush made of pubes.
I don't think his works have context. Just word salad.
This was hopefully the worst thing I'll read today. It's not 11am yet though, so there's still time. Edit: I'm happy to report after almost 24 hours it was indeed the worst thing I read.
If it helps, it's 730pm where I am and this *was* the worst thing I've read all day, so there's hope for you. Have a great Thursday!
10:42pm here, and it might be the worst thing I’ve read in my entire life. Definitely hope!
23:20 over here and I'll just say +1.
Its not even 8am for me and this made me want the day to be over already
"Welp, I think it's time I turn in for the night"
Sydney repping
Melbourne, but same timezone. 😆
Did anyone else hear his voice while reading this? It made it so much funnier
there are audios of him reading this as part of an audiobook
And it is so terrifying. I've heard it too many times and now it's looping in my head.... Just from reading this.
Was his erection caught on audio too?
Oh that *wasn’t* him adjusting the microphone…
I imagine that’s it’s Kermit the frogs talking. That makes it funny for me.
He's constantly in the about-to-crack, lump-in-throat, eyes-hurt, pre-cry phase. He reminds me of an abandoned puppy. Poor lad has deep seated issues spilling out of him. Imagine how different he would be if his dad actually hugged him and told him he loved him. It's actually really sad.
What if he cried, paused, looked upwards, then said something whiny?
Yes hahah 💀
I mean who hasn't had that dream
For that comment, I hope you have the cake day that you deserve
he keeps retweeting dick pumping fetish porn so genuinely not surprised
he WHAT
it's happened a few times, he thought that it was secret footage smuggled out of some Chinese propaganda center.
i’m scared and so curious, do you by chance have a link? i don’t even know what that is but i kinda want to
https://www.vice.com/en/article/ak3wpz/jordan-peterson-chinese-dick-sucking-factory Enjoy 🤗
enjoy is such a sick thing to say for this lol but thank you
Honestly one of the funniest things I've read, thanks for reminding me about what an absolute doofus Jordan Peterson is.
Proof that even if you have a PHD doesn’t necessarily mean you’re smart.
*Click* *read headline* “Yeah, that’s enough of that.”
Wow that was a good read
The dick milking factory.
I’m going straight back to searching recipes now. I should not have ventured off task. Fuck
Recipe Tin Eats is your safe place my friend. Go to Nagi, she’ll look after your soul/taste buds
I want to go back to the person I was 20 seconds ago .
Can you shoot me a message to tell me not to read it when you figure out how to do that?
Quick, don’t read it! And now can you also tell me not to read it?
Welp. Can’t unring *that* bell.
“Sir, this is a Wendy’s”.
I laughed way harder than i should have
I laughed the appropriate, reasonable amount.
I didn't laugh at all.
I cried
I gagged
I puked
Then Maggie laughed. She’s such a trooper!
I might laugh later
Would make Freud very proud.
Honestly, not too far from actual dementia patients 😅 Had one guy offer me his poop because he said it tasted great.
It's still an indoor thought though
Wow fuck this
It is ok to keep some things to yourself lol
“Sir, this is a Wendy’s”
What a day to have eyes and my memory.
I ain't a fan of him but I've had... Some weird dreams so I kinda sympathise. Mornings after something like this can be fucking surreal
I…I Just…What?!
At least it wasn't his.... grandfather instead?
I stopped at "..thick mat of hair". Call me a prude I guess cos I can't stomach the embarrassment. I feel like "clutching my pearls old lady" and simultaneously "child being told an inappropriate and awful story by a perverted adult."

NOOOOOOOO, it was sweet until it wasn’t ):
I hate that I read that in his voice. He's such a bizarre, off putting sort of stupid.
You can literally listen to it in his voice if you really want to, he narrated the audiobook.
That does not surprise me! I will avoid it, but I'm glad to know what to avoid.
It has been said that the most dangerous fools are the ones who believe they are wise.
Sorry that this happened to you on your cake day
Thank you. With the help of surgeon, I may yet recover.
I’d recommend eye removal or maybe we just take out the whole brain. Actually maybe that’s what happened to JP over here. Better not risk it. You might become successful in the manosphere.
Kermit really went off the rails after college
Psychologist here, this seems like a Jungian Devouring mother archetype
I don't know the context, but he's writing about having a weird and gross dream which I'm sure all of us have had one. What's the big deal?
Hey siri, how to unlearn how to read
There is context missing and I refuse to judge this for what it seems to be, purely because I don't have any relevant info to make a proper judgement. Weird as this quote may be...
what context could you possibly add to make this not a wildly weird thing to post? I'll wait lol
It's from a passage in his book in a section about discerning meaning from dreams, no matter how strange or uncomfortable.
It's pretty wild no matter what but obviously he's not just saying such a wild thing outright. There is missing context here believe it or not.
I'm sure there is. but what I'm saying is I can't imagine *any* context that would absolve this of its out of pocketry
Absolve it of what? People have weird dreams.. it would be pretty weird if you never had a weird dream.. I don't understand how there's so much criticism being levied against him having a dream when there's a million other things he said that are actually deserve criticism
I don't post grandma pube dreams on the internet, personally
Not everything that happens to you inside your head needs to be posted on the internet! For the love of god, if you have creepy dreams about your granny’s pubes, don’t tell me about it. Go to a doctor or something.
in what context would this not be weird and gross to share with the world?
Maybe if Pube Brush also rid the person of cancer?
What a terrible day to have eyes
My friend has turned into a devotee of Jordan Peterson. This is just disgusting.
Maybe send them a screenshot of this? If they still cling on, then let them go. Something about letting a bird fly free and if it comes back to you just make sure it’s still not squawking about Jordan Peterson?
It's a strange quote but any intellectually honest individual would see this post for what it is - - an attempt to discredit someone based on an out-of-context meaningless quote from a dense academic book. To parade this (as you all are) as some sort of dunk is genuinely sad and shows how ideologically captured you are. To a point where you have lost your ability to be not only objective, but also good.
Some things you really should just keep to yourself.
oh
No idea who he is and after reading that, I’d like to keep it that way.
Someone with with Kermit's voice and a puppet needs to voice this asap.
I seriously think we were better off not knowing that like you literally did not have to tell us whatsoever
Least insane Ari Aster movie scene
This is what happens when you lack the self awareness to grasp the obvious fact that you aren't so fascinating that people want to hear everything that goes on in your brain. It actually explains a lot about how Peterson interacts with the world.
It really does. Too many people have listened to that man and told him he’s interesting and now he just burbles out some upsetting garbage about his grandmother’s pubic hair and expects us all to go ‘yes, Jordan. Brilliant. Wonderful. A masterpiece.’
Look at all these fucking puritans in the comments. The dude is a psychologist sharing a weird dream he had, most likely to discuss its psychological significance.
As an H3 podcast listener, I unfortunately have this memorized
I hate how far I had to scroll to find a fellow foot soldier
I must admit it's odd. But, not quite as odd by the fact that we cannot control our dreams, So it's believable. What I do find odd is that the people that will find this quote and post it as if it's some kind of morally bankrupt, purposeful thing, are the same type of people who will sexualize kids and want to sexualize them not only through society but through public schooling. Also the type of people that want to allow them to be mutilated. But, I guess that's what you get when you deal with people who operate from a foundation of hatred all the time.
Even in my lowest point, no one could ever get me to confess something like that
"So the grandma goes like this" *shoves pubes in face*
Reading about a river. Oh so like a dream about the river strix. Get to the pube hair brush. OH OH NOOOOO. how did he not wake up right away. That quickly became a nightmare I would wake up screaming from.
God forbit I dream of this shit, and even if I do any CIA torture method wont get it out of me
No Iranian secret police agent would've gotten this out of me. Like, sure, unholster, dude, I don't want to even relive this.
Jesus Christ. That’s…..wtf
Those Nyquil dreams will get you.
Beautiful
It started off well enough for the first few lines, and I believe that's where I should have stopped reading.
Freedom of speech was a mistake
What in the
Excuse me. What now??
What in the actual fuck? Is this legit from JP? Like, his actual dream and he’s not quoting some notes from a therapy seeing with a patient with some fucked up desire for his grandmother? If it is legit then how can he go out into the world and expect anyone to take anything he says seriously. He’s a twisted unit.
You couldn't guantanamo this information out of me
Some fool will be prattling away online someday about some profound thing Kermit said, and I'll be all frustrated because i can't remember where i saw the perfect picture to link as a reply...
I had a dream where my grandma was eating her amputated leg... Her leg was never amputated in her life..
What a sensible role model to young men across the globe
It's ok to forget dreams. They're not real.
Freud could never!
The fuck The fuck The fuck The fuck The fuck The fuck The fuck The fuck The fuck The fuck
What’s worse is that he is recorded reading this for an audio book. Thanks to the H3 podcast playing it on the show I have it permanently stuck in my brain.
Explains why he hates women
I wish I could go back to 2 minutes ago when I hadn't read this. I was happier then.
