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

MODERATORS
If you find yourself typing a long comment that might have contradictions or presents several options, you should consider shortening it so that it only contains the most important point. Save the rest for follow up conversations. This makes a better conversation for several reasons besides voting.
Interesting. What makes you say that?
Yes exactly. If anyone cares enough about the subject they'll ask you to tell more.
It's a waste of your own time to type out everything you know in advance if no one cares or everyone already knows.
Fair enough. I can see how I could save myself time and effort. However, I've read many long comments in the past that are very interesting. And, considering the 90-9-1 rule, I suppose this happens to other people too.
