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

Back when I was single, I had a WOW raid night twice a week, multiple raids. I would always order the same meal on the first night. A large pizza hut chop salad (came in 2 containers) with ham, olive and ceasar and two pep lovers stuffed crust.

I'd eat one of the salads and a couple slices at the beginning of the raid and then another couple slices after the raids were through. it was like a 6 hour affair.

One night, I don't know what the hell was wrong, but I was ravenous and ate the entire first pizza and both salads.

The pie was 3120 calories, the salads were 750 a piece. I didn't eat again for 24 hours.

$6 at Little Caesar's gets you 2300 calories of "fuck me I'm fat aren't I?"

All the LC in my area are up to $9 and the pies got smaller. That said, it's still 4-5 meals worth that i'm gonna eat in a sitting if left unchecked.
