This is the most tricky thing ... people believing that a dimension [in this context] is somehow like a parallel universe or "shadow reality" or something like that. And then when you explain what it actually is (a reasonably straightforward mathematical term), it is so boring and they forget it immediately.

That kinda takes all the fun out of HP Lovecraft.

Except the Hounds of Tindalos, which actually come out ahead in the bargain.

Ah, but the hounds only required REGULAR angles.  Any old angle would do.

If we start getting eldritch horrors from beyond in this universe, they'll start taking our (the legal citizens of this universe) jobs and get rich on welfare!  WE HAVE TO PUT A STOP TO THIS!

Hmm. Given the amount of physicists I know that really enjoy their Lovecraft, it might be time for a paradigm shift! :lulz:
