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:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
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
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
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.

I'm trying to save the hot water! Don't be stingy
I'm in your shower whenever you are.
Spider bro?!?
Everybody gets one!
And into my car?
Another one rides the bus!
Steve walks warily down the street With his bus pass held down low Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet Transit ready to go
Are you ready? Hey, are you ready for this? Are you hanging on, or sat in a seat? Out of the doorway, passengers skip Back out into the street, yeah
Another one rides the bus!
This is almost too wholesome.
And another one on, and another one on
Another one rides the bus!
Hey, it's gonna get you, too.
Another one rides the bus!
Riding the bus down the boulevard, and the place was pretty packed!
Couldn't get a seat so I had to stand, with the perverts in the back!
It was smelling like a locker room, there was junk all over the floor!
We're already packed in like sardines, and we're stopping to pick up more!
I find it amazing transit services haven’t used this song in ads
We are so random lol 🤣
Katy, take your spork and get back into your own shower.
Doug Henning was very nearly Prime Minister, except no one voted for the Natural Law Party.
Love you too <3
ily bby <3
ilym bwtifl ( ˘ ³˘)<3
For some unknown reason reading this made me feel like writing BAZINGA!!! ～(つˆ0ˆ)つ｡☆
OMG you are such EPIC BACON AWESOMESAUCE!
WAFFLES!!!!
LOL sorry I'm so random sometimes xDxDxD
Thanks bro love you too
:) thanks friend, it's all big love
Showing or showering appreciation???
Must resist.... inner child.... "I know you are, but what am I?"
FARK! Failed....
I know you are, but what am I?
"I'm rubber, and you're glue. Whatever you say to me, bounces off and sticks to you!"
I never understood that retort as a kid, cause I was a little too literal lol. But I always loved the spirit of it
There's this XKCD...
found it! https://xkcd.com/1139/
Quite relevant. Little disturbing though.

meow meow :3
All the feels.
Thank you as well MrShankles! I left reddit for lemmy. I think my next move will be a daily walk to the coffee shop and see if I can meet some like-minded folks in real-time. It's been too long and the human touch is sometimes needed to re-center yourself. My fear is that everyone out there are assholes or, worse yet, I'm the asshole.
Nope
I'm not, take it back!
I wish people would be at least a little more normal. It's a bit weird when you join Lemmy and the front page is full of furries, femcels and other niches you never heard of.
But I get it. There aren't many other places left for unusual people. So I guess you better get used to it.
Better than nazis.
Unlike Reddit, Lemmy makes no attempt to spoon feed and algorithmically tailor to what it believes will garner the largest audience.
You have to do a little curating here. Block users, communities, and even whole servers that you're not interested in and suddenly the whole experience changes.
I very very rarely block users or servers because I don't want to put myself into an echo chamber, but I have a long list of communities blocked because I have no interest in them whatsoever. There could be anime girls posted every 10 seconds with thousands of upvotes for all I know, but I've blocked them because I don't care. They can continue having fun in their community, I can be blissfully unaware of it. Win win.
Make the threadiverse your own and it's far more enjoyable than everything all at once.
Not sure why you have that much of it. My frontpage (not subscriptions) is mostly meme, open source news, and political stuff. I don't see furries often.

I feel there's more unusual people than nahh, but nobody talks about (due to risk of presenting as abnormal). But if you can set aside the fear of being ostracized... everyone is pretty strange in their own ways. Show me a "normal" person, and I'll show you someone who's still learning. Appreciate you as you are though, we're all out here learning <3
I’ve never met a normal person in my life. Errbody be crazy in their own ways. I say this as a very average-looking dude.
I've met plenty of normos! The people who will give you a blank stare, if you tell them stuff like lobsters don't need to be boiled alive, you have to just kill them right before boiling, which is pretty easy since you need to just do a sharp cut on the right place on their head
I'm a little weird, but my front page has none of that. Am I doing lemmy wrong?
You can do an easy test. Use a sentence like "windows is the obviously the best operating system, they integrate AI so well"
If you have no answer, not a single downvote you are doing lemmy wrong xD
Jokes asides welcome to you and others in a collection of places where freedom and community truly mean something. UwU
let me try:
Apple make the best hardware, nothing can compare to my M2 and it's under-sized ssd. The fact that I can have such good hardware and still have a full Unix system is unbeatable.
Will that work?
I use Debian (mostly) btw
Nice try buddy, but you're wrong about that. Sorry to have to be the one to tell you, just how wrong you are about that... but you are wrong. I dunno about what exactly, but I do know I'm right and you're wrong /s
Glad to have ya around friend <3
what else would you prefer in your feed?
all interesting content is, by definition, weird

Get off my lawn kiddo, Ripley's coming over with analcoholic beer.
Anal cohol? Sounds kinky.
What can I say, I'm analcoholic.
