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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Classic. I mean, fuck now-Chapelle, but this flick is gold.

It's funny to see both Jon Stewart and Dave Chappelle take two very distinct paths into old age. Actually true of most people in that movie, lol

All these points are well made, and I agree. Veterans who know LOVE Jon Stewart. Cheers!

It’s true of most people, period.

Often homophobic and sexist, though.

And racist, but not in the usual Christian direction.

But... It's the full movie.

[–] Rolando@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's a killer movie, but it's got ads embedded in the stream... even ublock origin and sponsorblock didn't catch them.

That's why the SB community is counting on people like us to submit flagged timestamps, citizen. 🤘🏽

[–] Rolando@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah! I submitted my first timestamps a couple weeks ago, and I got really into it, making it so the timestamps were timed just right. But in this case I was so grossed out by this techbro ad in the middle of this amazing movie, that I just clicked the window closed and went on to watch something else.

Bob Marley, sure.

Tbf I haven't listened to that much reggae. Apparently ska is older and has wider roots.

There always has to be that one guy. I guess it's me this time.
