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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Running of the bulls, but with goats. They trample wherever they please
I have no real experience with bulls or goats, but based on what I've seen online, my impression is that bulls are pissed at everyone and willing to kill whoever is in their way at the moment, but they'll keep moving eventually. I feel like goats will each pick one person in particular, blame that person for everything that has ever gone wrong in their life, and beat on them relentlessly until they no longer exist, such that you, broken and bruised, manage to escape, catch a bus back to your hotel, gather your belongings, take a cab to the airport, fly home, take another cab to your house, and while you are fumbling with your keys at your front door, out of nowhere comes the goat ready to continue your beating.
