Top answer
"Don't dream" is not possible, around here, anyway. On the East Coast of the US, you can say "In your dreams" when someone thinks the impossible will happen, like that the prom queen will go out with him. You can say "Dream on" when someone has a slightly less unrealistic expectation, like they think they will win the Lotto jackpot.
