Heard a teenager in Starbucks tell her friend she's writing a novel based on a dream she had about sentient furniture

I was grabbing coffee between deliveries and this kid was dead serious about a plot where armchairs start giving life advice to depressed people. She had a whole notebook filled with character sketches of different lamps and couches. Has anyone ever actually taken something bizarre from a dream and turned it into a full story that worked?

That lamp sounds like it's basically a lamp from IKEA, and that's actually the most terrifying part.

So you're saying it's the most generic, forgettable lamp ever made? What exactly makes that detail scarier than if it was some rare antique?
