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

The fact that some humans can shove an entire large pizza inside themselves is both amazing and terrifying (lemmy.world)

In the U.S., the convention set by the national chains are small (10"), medium (12"), and large (14"), with some having extra large (16") as an option. Most local places will follow that convention as well.

The amount I consume usually comes down to the crust. If you give me a 16" thin crust pizza it would be gone. But a 14" normal crust, I'd likely eat half of one and try not to eat more.

Key word was try.
