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.

Weirdly I've somehow adjusted for inflation. On reddit I wouldn't bother commenting if there were more than 1000 comments, here I don't bother if there are already 100.

Quality vs quantity.

10 comments here likely means 10 people have unique thoughts. 1000 comments usually means memes and bots.

I used to hate reddit in springtime when the kids got out from school. Now it's always springtime.
