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

There's a lot of shitty "leather" belts that look great but fall apart rather quickly. I also tend to go through belts on my work pants, but I work construction and that is hard on the leather
Exactly. I have one really expensive belt my uncle gave me that I’ve been wearing since about 2012 and it’s just fine.
I have trashed several Walmart belts in that time.
I have a Dickies belt that has held up pretty well too.
And there's always that torn up section on the right hip where the tape measure goes
Get some dubbin and treat your leather products with it. They will last longer if they are treated right.
