Big Pharma: Dare to dream.
Enough already with the anxiety abating, hormone-replacing, artery-cleaning, pain-killing, erection-creating drugs.
What the big pharmaceutical companies need to make and sell is an inhaler that can instantly wipe out a bad dream that lingers. (Just the dream, mind you. Not deleting the to-do list or the multiplication tables.)
A starter dose would deal with basic I-forgot-to-go-to-class-all-semester dreams and holy-shit-no-brakes-in-the-car episodes. Stronger time-release formulas would handle repeating dreams involving giant spiders, rotary-dial telephones in emergencies and divorce demands involving loss of all the good towels.
This nightmare-eraser would soon be on every bedside table in America.
