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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I've always seen literal maps showing what's what. Sounds like maybe none of the Gumps could read. But even so, wouldn't you learn to tell the shapes apart? It shouldn't keep surprising you over and over.
I wouldn't be so sure about that. I'm pretty sure that Lemmy skews older to such a degree that most users are my side of 35 and the movie is "only" 30 years old ๐
... So you're upset that I said card instead of map? Really? Whatever. Round here it's a little card.
Wasn't the part with him telling other people that set in the 80s or 90s?
I guarantee you 100% it's a showerthought.
I've seen them in recent years, but I haven't always seen the maps.
You've always had the iconic Whitman's sampler, haven't you?
Are there other boxes of chocolates?
None that matter.
Except maybe Sees. Not a big fan of the company but I've had some great chocolate assortments from them.
