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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

They banned me for very obviously joking that someone else should punch the fascist attorney general of Indiana in the face and it was some sort of punny reply based on something he said. They only reinstated me because a bunch of mods from multiple subreddits took my side.
They ban for "won't someone rid me of this turbulent priest" comments apparently.
What?
You didn't say "go on, make my day" there. That's a lie. That phrase doesn't even appear. What a bizarre thing to lie about when anyone can just look.
You're really worked up about this, but you might notice that the moderator also didn't understand your "common idiom" and told you to explain yourself or shut up. Funny how you left that part out.
I don't expect anything. You're the one attacking me for not supposedly not knowing a phrase which you then said wasn't the phrase I didn't know. Much like in the other thread, you're not making much sense, but you are needlessly aggressive. I have very little patience left for it and will block you if it continues.
Again, I don't want anything. You're the one who attacked me.
I also didn't ask for an explanation.
Sure. This isn't an attack. Totally not insulting.
It was calling me stupid about something that had nothing to do with the topic of the thread.
Maybe you need to work on your interpersonal skills if you think that isn't an attack.
Deal with what? You're the only one here who gives a shit about this.
Please quote me being 'incensed' and explain how you could figure out my emotional state from text. This should be interesting.
Waiting for that quote.
I guess you lied when you said I was incensed. I wonder why you lied?
Insulting me won't make a lie true. Sorry. If you didn't lie, you can quote me. But I'm pretty sure you lied.
Nope. You said I was incensed. But you had no evidence to that effect. It was a lie. That's okay, lots of people lie.
Trying to change the subject will not make your lie true either, sorry.
That's great, but I'm really only interested in talking about your lie. You're welcome to explain why you lied if you ever admit to it. I'll be interested in that. Otherwise, I'm just going to continue to mostly ignore anything else you have to say. Especially the long posts. Not going to read those at all. Not when they could be lies too.
That's not about your lie.
Didn't read that. In fact, I'm just not planning on reading anything else from you and will respond to all future posts with the word 'strawberry.' That should amuse me.
