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

Why can't crazy people be hot?

The phrase "don't stick your dick in crazy" exists because there are plenty of hot people who are also batshit insane.

You'll rarely see a crazy person who isn't hot because if they aren't hot you won't see them participating in society.

I'm not hot and I have to participate in society... Or you mean the ugly crazy people don't participate in society?

If they're both ugly and crazy they'll be pushed as far into the outskirts as possible. When I worked evenings at Walmart I would always see the night shift people come in and they all had some kind of facial deformity and were hard to communicate with. I never see people like that at bars or anything, just working, and only in jobs and shifts nobody else wants.

Ah yes. I know exactly the type. I'm a night owl and sometimes I end up shopping at a 24/7 grocery store in my city at like 3am and that's exactly when all the creatures come out, too. On top of that this area is also infamous for meth so 90% of them are tweaking out, too.
