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

Since I'm in the shower, I'd at least run it under the water a minute or two to knock off the chill.

Legit, there's something strangely satisfying in taking a cold hotdog straight from the package, slapping it onto a piece of bread with some condiments and just going down on it like a starved hedgehog.

Of all the animals, why name a hedgehog?

I get it tho I totally do that.

Have you ever seen hedgehogs eat? Now, imagine one that's starving

Careful, some packages say not to eat them without cooking to 77C first.

Vomit is basically still food, you can eat it too

[–] linearchaos 6 points 1 year ago

Depends on why you vomited.

my cats will fight you for it

You could, yes, but that doesn't mean you should.

The only kind of hotdog-like food I'd eat raw is those canned Vienna sausages. They don't improve upon cooking (or I just haven't found a way to cook them that makes it worth the effort), so I often eat them as is, out of the can.

And they are delicious.

Nothing better than a floppy chilly meat stick

Yup. Did it when I was a little kid.

To quote the best Starfleet captain yet seen: "Well there's surviving, then there's living"

If you’re looking for a no-cook midnight snack, it works. I’d wash it off with warm water first, though.
