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

More people are distracted by their phones on the toilet than in the shower

Can confirm. Commenting from the throne.

What a throwback to the golden age of meme culture.

[–] nei7jc 1 points 1 year ago

hahaha I wish I was kidding but some people do.

There are actually more cells in our brain than brains in our entire body

Looks like you're having diarrhoea, my friend.

[–] azuth 11 points 1 year ago

The thinker. Does he look like taking a shower?

I rest my case.

It’s called shitposting.

[–] tun 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Be the change you wish you want to see in this world.

What does he want to be a toilet thought?

Does somebody know how to create a community?

[–] gdbjr 7 points 1 year ago

Hard disagree. I’m on my phone while on the toilet. In the shower I have nothing but the voices in my head to listen to.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I make up songs in the shower, I do not sing when I shit

[–] j4k3 3 points 1 year ago

Lier! Everyone has a tuba playing for the base notes. Some even play the bassoon. Legend has it, if you hold off the performance for more than 3 days, you'll find you can play the flute.

I find most interesting thoughts are as I fall asleep.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sometimes while falling asleep, I'd start thinking the weirdest shit, only to realize how weird the my thoughts are.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

the no poop post was rumored to be a toilet thought

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Only if I forget my phone in the toilet

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And if I don't have thoughts on either what's my problem?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you one of those people who don't have an internal dialogue?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well yea I do talk internally to myself, but not "shower thoughts", I wish I did tho

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do you wake up with eureka moments?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Not often, and they are not quite the level of a showerthought

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

3 days without pooping is 3 days wasted

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

On the toilet, I seem to be better at problem-solving. But in the shower tend to come up with new* and deeper thoughts.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But in the shower tend to come up with you

😨 😨 😨

Bloody Siri

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Shower beats toilet for thinking, every time! Its the steam! My toilet rarely steams.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Which kind of thought was this one?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I applaud you for your honesty.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Me more for their patience.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Excremeditation.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Why? You got one of those $4k butt massaging lazy boy toilets? I wouldn’t say most of us have them on the toilet.
