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 most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
    • If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Goddamnit.

I haven't been able to eat eggs ever since someone explained they were chicken menstruation. And now, I have to contemplate avian necrobestial bathwater.

Fuck all you people, unsubbed.

resubbed... Damnit.

Eh, this won't stop me from making Jewish penicillin

Great. Now I'm hungry and pitching a tent.

Isn’t it technically a fertilized egg at that point? Otherwise, when in the process could the egg get fertilized

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Hens producing eggs for consumption aren't exposed to roosters. Their eggs (typically) aren't fertilized.

You're eating chicken period, not aborted fetuses.

Oh. I wish you hadn’t told me that…

Thanks but I have zero desire to click the link

Either way, that’s always highly disconcerting.

Tell me about it. I haven't been able to eat breakfast food in years. Which kinda sucks, because my group hobby (hot air ballooning) is an early morning activity, and we usually finish up with breakfast.
