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

Chinese people save more money because 8 is a lucky number. In China, it's common to see prices of 188元 and 588元. Meanwhile, Americans are stuck paying $199 and $599. (lemmy.world)

This is exactly the kind of thought that occurs in the shower. Spontaneous realizations that have been right there the whole time.

I’m fairly confident that no realizations took place when this abortion spewed out of someone’s imagination.
