Showerthoughts

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:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
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
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
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.

Ahh good point. There are exceptions to the rule. I guess it's more of a theory than a rule
This is FALSE.
I remember I was once very sick, and I pooped. No pee.
I remember distinctly going 'oh shit does that mean I'm dead?'
Upon reading the title I thought, this person has never been severely dehydrated before.
I don't recommend it, I must say.
That's like really bad. Because the laws of this universe are pretty clear. (B⇒P)∧¬(P⇒B)

Yeah, no I did read this title right. That's the topic.
Someone took time out of their day to post this. Intentionally.
sigh
Now, OP, let me ask you this. Did you mean for all those words to come out of you in that order, or were you just as surprised as the rest of us?
I peed. I didn't poop.
I pooped and I did pee. It's science at that point. You can't deny science.
I'm picturing this conversation as a debate in a public plaza in Ancient Greece, surrounded by wizened old men wearing bedsheets and looking really pensive.
Edit: Socrates is there, too, he's wearing a bleu ciel one with a repeating feather print pattern. It's laundry day...
Some poor kid in the corner being burdened to document the whole conversation lol
"... so it was 'if you poo in the shower, then you never have to flush?' Or was it pee? And what's flushing? Oh, no, Diogenes is staring at me again..."
You can pee first, the poop without peeing as a separate transaction
transaction
I just imagined something going wrong and then the whole transaction is rolled back
The bank never approves one without the other.
I've done it. It works.
The federal reserve is reviewing your social security number as we speak.
More like you can control the flow of poo during pee pee. But not the flow of pee during poo poo.
Sorry for me it's binary. It's one of both.
Why the youtube link? Am I missing something?
I just wanted to add something absolutely random that had nothing to do with the title. This is obviously a shit post (lol) but I didn't want to leave it blank. I got some serious laughs out over this post.
ha, cool, fits the post
I, a man, once discussed this with a pair of women. I was surprised to learn this was the case for them. At the time I thought it was an anatomy difference, but I'm starting to worry I'm a mutant.
Wait what? You can't N2 without also doing N1????
The effort and strain of pooping is more than urinating, so it essentially triggers the bladder as a side effect.
Yes from my extensive testing and research spanning well over 30 years. I can concur.
I tend not to poo in my shower, though.
Is it really a shower if you're not emergency storming shit down the drain hole while your mom is asking why the door is locked?
You're disgusting. One shouldn't just throw away perfectly good shit like that!
Could always put it back and save it for another session.
