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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

I can't really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by "both" sides of the spectrum. It's just something I find interesting.

Didn't Stephen Colbert coin that phrase? I thought he said it at the White House Correspondence Dinner or something.

Could be. Drew has also said it, that's where I first heard it so that's where I've attributed it.

I say this as a fan of Colbert.
