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

I made the original comment.

I picked 'cigarette commercials' because that seemed like the most obnoxious thing a kid could sing.

Wasn't expecting to get people focused on that.

Who knew?

Apologies haha. Let’s get back to blaming the children!

Speaking as a former child myself, I can say that they are in fact terrible people with absolutely no boundaries.
