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'd rather have a "Would you like to hide all Sports related Content?" button than a "Would you like to hide all NSFW content?" button (self.showerthoughts)

The problem, as always, is people. People would either forget to tag their posts or intentionally abuse the system. It's hard enough for mods to tag actual NSFW as such, giving them 5 additional tags to monitor for isn't going to help them at all.

I do really wish we could get a system like this though. There were many times in my younger days I was browsing /r/all without NSFW filtered out expecting the occasional surprise boob and would see things that could cause a legitimate need for therapy.
