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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Whilst they have been fantastic in years past, I'm worried about their future. Short version is, they use a lot of plastic now. source, I've been a mechanic for 19 years and currently work at a Toyota specialty shop. But still they're probably going to be better than most others. Honda was good too though. I'm not sure about now, but my daily is a 97 accord with 265k miles. Amazing car.
