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 was in 3rd or 4th grade at the time and happened to be sick that day. Freaked me out that people were going to think I did it.
Oh god, I can't tell if that would be an epic prank, or a traumatizing nightmare.
Your teacher gets a cop, and all your classmates to go in it. Everyone acts like you did it.
Then a cop comes in, and arrests you. Throws you into the back of his car....then DRIVES YOU TO DISNEY WORLD!!!!
Which, might be kind of a long drive now that I think about it. I have no idea where you lived in 1995.
