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 go by a Tesla charging station every day and see cars there for up to several hours. This seems like a waste of a huge chunk of your personal time so owning an electric vehicle sucks in that respect imo. What are people doing or can do that is productive during this wait time?

They charge to 80% quickly so I think anyone staying longer than about 25 minutes probably found something to do nearby such as eat at a restaurant or do some shopping. I think most people that own EVs do most of their charging at home so the only time they use chargers is on long trips and they plan their charging stop(s) to be when they’d already be needing to pee, stretch their legs, and maybe eat a quick meal.
