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

I think op is drowning in the shower

The clock hand placement for 11:19 is the reverse of 3:55. I assume OP’s workday ends at 4 PM.

Someone call 911 OP is having a stroke.

Less apparent with this one (I just used a clock face generator), but if the hour hand was longer as is the case with some clocks, it would look a LOT like 5 minutes till 4:00. I'm assuming OP's shift ends at 4:00 PM.

Analog clock displaying 11:19

Thank you. Makes perfect sense now.

Clearly taking the 25 or 6 to 4 approach of writing a title

Staring blindly into space

So much like 5:00 a.m. ? Right ... Asking the real question here. Procrastination.

If I'm following correctly, 11:19AM seems like it's a long ways off from 5PM when you haven't even had your lunch break yet. But then 4:00PM rolls around and THE FINAL COUNTDOWN starts where you only have ONE HOUR left in your workday.

I dunno, that's just my interpretation. Just riffing at this point.

Sometimes they don't think it be like it is, but it do.
