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 most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
    • If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

At least you don’t have to stomp it through the drain though

I regret clicking this thread. So I'll add to it.

Years ago the apartment complex I was living in was getting renovated. We got these little caravans put up out in the back which we could use as kitchens and bathrooms as ours were getting renovated. The bathroom ones had pump issues, and one day, as I was preparing to get into the shower in this freezing cold caravan (because what better time to do this than in the middle of the winter?), the pump crapped out and the sewage ended up backflowing, regurgitated out of the shower drain.

I did not shower that day.

It would've cost you nothing to not type that.

Ugh the smell of it in hot water would be horrid though.

I hope the op is taking a cold shower.

Mods take this post down. Clearly it's a toilet thought not a shower thought

How did you manage to make that concept sound even worse??

Stay hydrated, friend.

I'm sorry that was your shower thought

It's a pain in the ass

Joking aside, when you get a colonoscopy, oh my. Oh my.

A better thought be: what a workout.
