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

That's why I don't wear ponchos; don't want people thinking I'm gay.

I'll stick with my tie-dye umbrella thank you very much!

Skirt + poncho = double skirt
Denim skirt + denim poncho = double denim double skirt.

"Skirt" and "shirt" are from the same Old Norse word. "Shirt" shifted the "sk" sound to "sh" is all.

Is that a Mexican poncho, or is that a Sears poncho?
