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.

Technically I don't know that it's offensive to taste.
And my dog likes it.
But I'm still not going to check.
This is one of the reasons I don't like dogs who lick people. I'm fine with your dog until he starts trying to lick me.
I also don't like when your laying down, and the cat walks on your chest, just to block your view of the tv, and sticks it's butthole in your face. You're all like "eeewwww, no cat butt!!!" But the cat is like "meow!". You have to tell them "Look, we've been over this. I don't speak meow. You need to learn more words. Like if I pull a can of f-o-o-d out, you go nuts. And I have to spell that word, because I'm not trying to excite you, and then disappoint you. Because I'm NOT an asshole, and am being empathetic to YOUR feelings. Unlike you."
And she says "Meow".
And I say "I still don't get the nuances of meow language. It can't be one word that means everything. This isn't Hawaii."
And she says "Meow."
It's a losing battle trying to teach cats to speak english when they lack vocal cords. But maybe it's a good thing they can't speak. They could be like carrots. Always screaming how much pain they're in, and how they have a baby carrot at home. All just because I'm trying to make a salad.
Now.......cucumbers? They scare me. They're practically giddy to be chopped up. Real masochists.
But at least they're not smug, like George Clooney. The smug bastard!
Are you high? Lmao. What a comment 🤣
If you want some more laughs dig through their comment history. This is par for the course

Gold.
Thank you, I've been trying to figure out how to give Lemmy Gold. Didn't realize it was this easy

Cats aren't necessarily intending on sticking their butt in your face. They see you as vulnerable when you're laying down, and since they respect you, they're going to guard you by facing the other way to protect you from the open area.
Totally get the dogs licking you though.
No, cats do intend to show you their butthole. It's the highest form of trust and respect a cat can give you. They're basically saying, "I'm going to show you my weakest spot so you know there's no secrets between us"
Oh long Johnson.
I've heard people with dogs are healthier because they get bacteria from their dogs.
I saw your name and my partner paused wrestling so I could read the comment aloud. 100% worth it. Way more interesting than The Conglomeration
Your partner must not be very good at wrestling if you were browsing lemmy during a sesh.
I don't even know where to begin with this comment lmao. It's funny, but just to give a serious answer, I'm not the biggest AEW fan so I passively watch it
I’d like it if George Clooney put his butthole in my face while I was watching TV.
Sir this is a Wendy's, you have to go to Carl's Jr for that
This is the Internet, I don't even have a dog.
I got you an animated version
Wait, does that mean...this you?
Dogs can have a little shit. As a treat.
That genuinely made me laugh
Both my partner and me too. I wasn't ready
