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 most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

I'm not sure about pizza but I've heard a guy putting a casserole in his oven and forgot about it because his coworker was begging him to hang out with him. When he walked back home, his house was burned down to the ground and the firefighters told him "Some knucklehead left a casserole in the oven." He was super devastated after that.
Well, sir/ma'am:
Weed and cooking is very dangerous. Don't mix pots and pot
I was about to comment about how familiar this sounds lol
Did the guy get his vacuum cleaner back at least?
That's always been a fear of mine. I think at worst I've left it preheating with nothing inside
