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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

As far as I can tell, Darjeeling and regular old Irish breakfast tea essentially taste the same. But the former is more expensive. I think I've been scammed by Big Tea. (self.showerthoughts)

I'm on a weekend vacation and forgot to bring my tea and the international grocery didn't have it, so I settled for Darjeeling. I can barely notice the difference. It's so subtle that it might as well just be a different tea brand.

This may be one of the most 'first world problems' worthy problems I've ever read...

edit: /S for the downvoting folks that take a shower thoughts post seriously

It's a shower thought, dude. Also, there's no such thing as Big Tea as far as I know.

Edit: I literally thought that in the shower and it amused me.

The British empire has entered the chat (backed by a very heavily armed fleet of warships).
