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

What I've found is that after a week socializing with twins, it's pretty much impossible to confuse one with the other, especially if they're older. There's always some little quirk that differentiates the two. The parents who raised them would have to be out of the world shitty if they can't tell apart their children.

This. I know identical twins, at first glance they look exactly the same, but with a little time it's pretty easy to tell them apart. Even in older photos it's not that hard to tell which is which.

Me and the clone argue about old photos about who is whom. Like, WE don't know who WE are in some photos.
