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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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.

I'm 100% confident that many of you out there have poured the final pieces out of your bag of favorite chips directly into your mouth. So, companies shouldn't waste any of that "dust" in their factories.

Wha....no! You don't EAT them. You sell them you linux youtubers who say that they can't run linux on these old broken microchips. And they pull out their soddering gun, and say "BITCH I WILL END YOU!!!"

Actually they're not that aggressive. They probably say something they think sounds cool and threatening, but is more comic book cool than real life cool.

"With his trusty soddering gun in hand, linux man uses a vast knowledge of inner workings of electronics to repair any electronic no matter how demanding, in a never ending quest to prove that micro linux can run on ANYTHING!!!"

and then the delivery guy is like "Yeah, that's great. Sign here for your package, dork."
