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

A few genuine signals quickly become noise as everyone tries to be heard, demanding more and louder signals to stand out.

That’s the neat part: They just assume if you’re watching sports you like beer, trucks, and dick pills

Are you really going to sit there and try to tell me that Patrick Mahomes eating wings doesn't make you want to immediately drop what you're doing and go to wing stop!?
