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

Regular loaves of bread have pre-slicing technology figured out, so what is it with bagels and English muffins? (midwest.social)

Lol. Grew up an hour from St Louis and I still don't know how people prefer sliced bagels like those. I like to butter my bagels or some other schmear. I don't want to eat a dry bagel and I also don't want to walk around with a dip

I mean, I just assume that it was something that Panera or whoever did to give out samples, which is an entirely reasonable form of sacrilege…. And that one idiot made it go viral.
