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.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I just got back from Atlanta. It has the worst drivers I've ever been around and the most Teslas I've ever been around. Make of that what you will. (self.showerthoughts)

I work at an airport at a job that as you're exiting the plane, I'M the first person you see as you're exiting the plane.

I've often made jokes, with no context given, that everyone would be better off if Atlanta were just put on a no-fly list. Even without context given I get upvotes for saying that.

Kinda like when I call George Clooney a smug bastard. People don't question it. They just know it's true and upvote without backstory needed.
