It's much easier to hear a pin drop when you drop it on an amplified microphone.
Showerthoughts
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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- 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.
Or when you’ve got super mega ears
How do you get super mega ears is it DLC?
gotta kill a few people
Can we pause for a second and think about how amazing our ears are? You can literally hear a needle drop in another room.
What's the power level involved in that? Couple of micro watts? Plus the square cube law and you end up with nano or even pico watts reaching your ear.
And your ears dynamic range is literally from a needle drop to a chainsaw at full throttle.

As long as you don't spend a lot of time with that chainsaw, that is.
i heard a pin drop on my bed one time all the way from the other room
well technically i heard the pop and the water rushing out but i think it counts
i figured the punchline would come eventually
Clever girl...
That's the landing, does the drop make a sound too?
Depends if it's dropped in a vacuum or not.
