Sometimes I wake up from the weird ones because, in the dream, I get to the point of “I’d like to speak with the screenwriter, please.”
This happens to me, too. You become aware of how ridiculous the circumstances are and your conscious mind steps in to cut the nonsense. Or so it seems.
It happens to me when I'm lucid dreaming and start doing whatever I want. It's like I'm trying to hang on, but it doesn't last too long once the veil has been lifted.

I still have the occasional "forgot to go to class the whole semester and can't find my final-exam location" dream.
Every once in a while I have a dream where some law was changed and I have to go back to high school for a class or two for my graduation to remain valid. The dreams start off without anything seeming silly, but as the dream goes on, I begin to realize how stupid of a situation it is and the dream kind of trails off.

For a time after my father died I regularly had dreams where I would see him at a distance, sometimes across a large room full of people or on the street driving by. As I would get closer to him, his appearance would change and I'd realize it wasn't him. I wouldn't exactly remember in the dream that he had died, but it would make me feel extremely sad that it wasn't my father that I had seen.

I sometimes sleep with my eyes open and can see if there's enough light, but don't always know what I'm looking at until I wake up. I once dreamt of being chased by a helicopter during an afternoon nap and woke up to realize I was looking at the spinning ceiling fan.
Just murdering people didn't provide enough ROI?
