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

It is in my country lol. Just because I don't get to meaningfully vote in it doesn't mean I don't live here.

Tell you what, if Illinois goes red this election, DM me and I'll send you $200.

Ok cool. And if random thing does random result you'll owe me $200, too.

No.

By the way, quick question, would you say that you don't like me based on who I'm voting for in the presidential election, regardless of how I vote down ballot? Because it kinda seems like you're proving my point here.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That's exactly what everyone has thought about your opinions.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm rubber, you're glue, what you say bounces off me and sticks to you.

If that's the level of discourse you operate at, I can join you there, I guess.

If you weren't such a transparent .ml troll maybe someone would engage you. But we all know who you are, especially from your comments here today.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Throwing around a bunch of playground insults and then accusing me of being the troll is a good bit, 7/10.

Good talk, very high level and productive. You've really given me a lot to think about.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Considering you're a .ml troll, I doubt you spent that long on the whole "think about" part.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Do me a favor and tell the middle school kid who's giving you all your quips that if he keeps trying, he'll get there eventually.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

I actually like that one, good job.
Doesn't change anything about you being a .ml troll, though. You're not fooling anyone.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Trolling is when someone disagrees with you for any reason.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Or an entire instance always has the same bad takes and defends it no matter what in posts they shouldn't be in.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That's very true, but none of the people who have replied to me are from .world so I don't see how that's relevant.

Are you telling me that you consider "no u" to be too low of a form of discourse for you? You were all about it earlier, what happened?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Your an idiot. I'm done talking to you. Better luck with your future troll attempts.
