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:

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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.

Depends on how cooked you are.

You think about weird stuff in the shower.

And based off the last few words we can surmise OP is likely having a stroke... while in the shower thinking about sausage

[–] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

is that a masturbation euphuism ?

The word you're looking for is "euphemism."

[–] TheReanuKeeves@lemmy.world 33 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Only if you grinded your dick first. There aren't any sausages that I know of that use a fully intact piece of meat.

[–] lemmyng@piefed.ca 23 points 2 weeks ago

That's what Grindr is for, right?

I could've lived my life without reading this and I would've been happy.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's real, called "F. Dick Sausage Stuffer"

[–] Salamanderwizard@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Buddy, you need a boyfriend

Edit: oh, I just saw who posted this. I’ve known you from Reddit for well over a decade and a half.

You damn will know the awesomeness of getting fucked in the ass. Don’t come here and play ignorant.

Sausages are sealed at both ends, humans generally aren't sealed. We're poop stuffed meat tubes.

[–] ThePunnyMan@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

We do have sphincters that separate various parts of our digestive tract...

[–] db2@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah but that's temporary, a sausage needs to be cut open or torn.

Thank you, Satan's Maggoty Cum Fart

Sausage casings are made from the small intestines (usually from pigs but you can get them from other animals), not the rectum or large intestines. And it's not even the whole intestine but a lining or something like that. So you're not going nearly far enough to be considered a sausage.

You don’t know me.

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

No because we don't make sausages with rectums.

[–] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

SatansMaggotyCumFart is a modern philosopher in the Diogenes mold.

If you eat a sausage, does that make you a metasausage? Sausage²?

[–] akunohana@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago

This is my main reason for only having sex with trees. Also I feel sorry for the animals that are produced and processed in an industrialized fashion. 🤷‍♀️

[–] MutantTailThing@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Anal sex is a dick sushi.

[–] Trex202@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

A penis is just another type of blood sausage

[–] IPeaceInYourFace@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Yes, that's why they call it the hot beef injection.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 3 points 2 weeks ago

really its like sausage stuffing. Its best when you stuff from both ends of the bird.

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Wow, I am oh so glad I gave up meat.

[–] MolochHorridus@piefed.social 3 points 2 weeks ago

You’re already having anal sex when eating sausages, just a bit differently.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I am your sausage - An endearing term I thought I would never hear.

[–] CovfefeKills@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago
