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.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Fair enough. I'm Gen-X and I started complaining about "kids today" when I was about 15. I've always been an old man.

They're gonna think Gen X refers to the generation of The Site Formerly Known As Twitter.

"The x formerly known as y" is a reference that won't be understood by much of the youngest generation.

If it even exists in the future.
