I had a nightmare that I was editing something or other. I don't remember what the text was about (essay? novel?), but I distinctly recall waking up because I was so disturbed by the last paragraph I read. The thing was organized as a laundry list. "He did <blank>," "Then he did <blank>." Apparently this upset me enough to cause me to wake up groaning.

The worst part about that story is that it's entirely true.
