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

Have you tried finishing a shower, just to realize you haven't used soap yet and you know have to start all over?

Or when autopilot makes me use soap for a third time

Yesss, the struggle

Happened to me after I tried my first edible. Was sitting in the shower until the hot water ran out. Then it was a mad dash to hurry and wash up before the water was too cold.

It truly is a struggle

Only happened with washing my hair. Sometimes do I do it twice because I forget for a moment and then when I start washing it again do I feel I have already done it 😂

don't drop the soap

I sometimes wonder if I have used soap when I am lost in thought, but I have always managed to answer the question by looking at the soap on the floor.

If I deviate at all from my shower routine I cannot remember what has been washed or not. It must be hair wash, hair condition, wash arms, wash front torso, wash back torso, wash legs, wash armpits, wash front and back holes, wash feet, rinse conditioner, wash face and neck. If I don't do things in that order for whatever reason I am lost and have to start over. God forbid I take too long a pause between feet and don't remember which one I did already.

edit I'm not sure how to do this, so I'll edit when I figure it out

I do the same thing- just spending half a hour under the water, no using soap
