do you pay attention to small details whilst dreaming?

Generally not, occasionally I will especially if during the day / before I went to sleep I was thinking about lucid dreaming, at which point I will pay attention to text in my dreams.

One of the fun facts about dreaming, your brain doesn't care about text, so it'll just throw random words / text where it expects to see it, for example if you had a trash / litter bin that would normally say "Trash" on it, in your dreams the word "Trash" might be replaced with something random, and it'll be random every time you look at it, so if you want to know if you're dreaming, look at a word on a sign, remember what it said, look away, and look back. If it's the same it's real life, if it's changed (And it's not a screen or something like that) it's probably a dream.

↩ @'Ryan' I can usually tell whether I'm dreaming or not because I usually have a bf in my dreams

Depends on the type of dream but usually no. During failed lucidity attempts I am able to remember many more details that use various senses (Taste of foods, texture of a basketball, sounds of wind in trees, etc) not normally remembered in dreams. An example of this was a dream where I was at the gym doing my own thing and casually watching the clock (clocks are really weird in dreams and are good items used to verify you are dreaming). I can still to this day vividly remember the smell of that gym (fresh paint type smell) and the cold benches that I sat on while watching the clock. Even though it was a digital clock, in that dream I could hear faint ticking as if it was an analog clock.

nope, never done that.

Lol for me I can't tell the difference between dreams and reality because the text doesn't change like that and makes perfect sense. And also computers work.

• ↩ @'Ryan' Hey I just wanted to say, that thing of looking at texts is a "reality check" to check if you're dreaming or not, and that one is not too reliable as it doesn't work for some people (like me), so if anyone here wanna know if they're dreaming, a different reality check that has worked for my friend is covering your nose and trying to breathe through it.
  tl;dr if you want to know if you're dreaming and the text thing doesn't work for you then try to cover your nose and breathe through it

The thing is, the thought if whether I'm dreaming or not never crosses my mind when I'm in a dream. I just kinda accept it as-is.

↩  Deauthorized It's the same for me unless I've been thinking a lot about lucid dreaming and wanting to do it. Then I occasionally remember in dream. I have also had it when I've been irl and just short tired had to check myself in case I was dreaming because I felt out of it but yeah.

↩ @'fres' oh nice I did not know that was a thing. That's awesome.

No because I hardly remember anything, including dreams.
I'm forget a lot of things really easily and I couldn't tell you the last dream I remembered.

↩  gamingto12 I’m forget a lot of things really easily and I couldn’t tell you the last dream I remembered.

So you don't remember the last dream you remembered?

↩  Deauthorized I remember a few, but not a lot of them. Either because I simply just don’t dream, or I forget

My question is why don't our dreams contain our phones despite how much we use them
