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.

What if i liked my ipod?

There's music RIGHT ON YOUR PHONE, man. Load it up, play. If you picked the right phone, you have regular headphones, too.

What if knowing about traffic didn’t stop me from driving straight into 99% of the time?

That's a horse/water problem I can't solve.

What if me and my friends were never far from a browser and any disagreement could have waited the 10 minutes it took to get to a computer?

It's hard to do that AND touch grass ever.

I always feel fucking bored.

That's another thing we can't help with. Find something to engage with, even if it means leaving your computer behind.
