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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

I love that comment sections here are like, y’know, discussions and stuff. Not just the same jokes and parroted phrases over and over and over.

Because in unicode strikethrough is achieved by superimposing the strikethrough character on another character. So any regular character, emojis included, can be striked through.

To specifically say I was going to smile, but I choose to not.

Don't see any difference for bold emojis.

Could you possibly share a screeny? They do not appear different on my app/device in italic and I’m so curious!
