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:
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.
He'd be evil if he got his powers from 2025 internet.
Also: Would the way he get them be the same? With his cat just randomly entering in the cheat code and him trying to delete it? Or would it be after an accident involving nuclear waste while being chased by ICE because he Tweeted something negative about Trump?
He'd buy one of those obviously bogus AI items off Tiktok and would end up with a superhero serum instead. Or, maybe he'd get in to crypto.
Didn't he know all the information on the internet? Times have changed.
Freakazoid knows everyone's kinks.
He has the unredacted Epstein files.
He has access to everything in secure military subnets, including authentication as every general and admiral.
He knows zero-day exploits for power grids, satellites, financial systems, and air traffic control.
Freakazoid can blow up your pager.
He can spend any bitcoin on a whim.
He knows the real name and location of every spy.
He knows the psychological profile of everyone who did online therapy.
He knows what you did last summer.
Freakazoid is why Adama said "no networks".
I'd say God help us all... but there's a new god in town and his name is Freakazoid. He can hear us through the phone in your pocket.
Upvoted just for BSG.
Nah, that would be utter crap. 2015 should work though.
Push it back a few years and he would just be trollface
Huh. I remember the name but don't think I ever saw it. Interesting idea though.
I saw it when it first aired. Like Spielberg's other cartoons a lot of the humor went over my head as a kid and isn't quite my preferred style of humor as an adult, but I nevertheless remember it fondly simply for the childhood nostalgia.
I remeber being slightly disappointed while I was watching it back in the day. The problem was that it relied on boomer pop culture references. I mean, he does a lenghty Jerry Lewis impression in the first episode - which kid is supposed to get that? And kids were the target audience, so no excuse there.
They did, it's called Elon Musk
Freakazoid was funny.
Just like 1995 Internet compared to 2025 Internet.
he needs to have aged
