A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

1: Yet.

Yeah, he only killed about 1.4 million.

Dammit, Donnie! These are rookie numbers! You gotta get those numbers up!
Not yet. He's certainly working on it.
Estimates are between 50 and a 100 million people.For example USSR is said to lose around 18 million people in that war.
