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.

The point I'm making is that philosophers are trying to answer questions and if they weren't they wouldn't be getting PhDs, since a PhD is not given for just knowing a lot about Philosophy, but for discovering something new in the field.
