The brain is above the mouth so as thought we 'look' down at it. Therefore we are looking from above at the roof.

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.

You sound likey dad. He never missed an opportunity to point out that the roof is on the outside of the house.
Either way, i ate a bunch of sour patch kids and it's fucked
Hot pizza rolls straight from the oven = DIY popcorn ceiling.
At last. A showerthought that is actually a showerthought.
Guys - this what a showerthought is, please take note. Thanks.
Yeah. The showerthoughts on Lemmy have been brutal.
They sucked on reddit too.
Yeah probably, they were just filtered by popularity which made it appear better than it was.
Mostly "showerbadtakes", yeah.
Your hair is the roof of your mouth.
Does that make our brain cavity the attic?
Fat does insulate.
It's where I keep my piles of disorganised trash
that's where the cobwebs are.
I would say that the hair is the set of raccoons that hang out on the roof of the house and do weird shit at unexpected times.
I think hair might be accessory to the nature of “roof”. Hair is more the chimney of the mouth.
Unless you're Micheal Jordan.....or Stone Cold Steve Austin.....or Goldberg......or.....
In portuguese we call it the 'sky' of your mouth
That's even higher than the roof!
And doing something behind my back would actually be in front of me?
roof
| ro͞of, ro͝of |
noun (plural roofs | rufs, rʊfs |)
- the structure forming the upper covering of a building or vehicle.
- the top inner surface of a covered area or space; the ceiling: the roof of the cave fell in.
- used to signify a house or other building, especially in the context of hospitality or shelter: helping those without a roof over their heads | they slept under the same roof.
Which dictionary is that?
The New Oxford American.
Annihilated.
But there's no source.
Roof roof! Rrrrrr-roof
And the nose is the awning of the mouth.
Your scalp is the root and your brain is the attic
That’s why it’s called shingles.
You're right. I suppose the actual roof of my mouth is the top of my skull.
I burned the tent of my dent when the tea I was sent did not have a vent.
