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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

No pun intended, catfishing had had a hook. You had someone that had wrapped up their lives and or a serious amount of money into someone there was an emotional angle. Most of the trolls don't really have any belief in what they're saying and it most their drawing people out to fight with them. Definitely a shower thought.
