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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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 think it's interesting seeing people in the restroom. Like if it's just some number 1, conversation time. But if it's number 2, no eye contact, no words to be had. Like you're ashamed of your own poo baby. Be proud of that loaf bro... You made that with your own body.

Dude, leave me alone when I'm peeing.

Some people are fine with it. If I see a coworker go into the restroom right before me, I'll intentionally wait so I don't run the risk of having to chat with them while standing at the urinals.

I don't want to have a conversation while my dick is in my hand.

This will make a great subtitle for your memoir

That position in nature is a vulnerable one. Think of how many animals including people popped a squat only to shortly thereafter find themselves being eaten alive.

To make matters worse some animals even start from there when chowing down.

i'm not the one starting these convos, it's just an observation with my interactions.

Do not strike up a conversation with me while I'm taking a leak. Sheesh.
