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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

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.
