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 and the TOS
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.

She thinks you're an asshole, but you're her asshole
Congratulations, your (his) wife now has two assholes
"Dumbass doesn't know the replacement is under the counter. I'll swap it after the poor miser has a greasy hair day."
Comments feel a little harsh. My partner does the same with dishwasher liquid, almost instinctively. I have to keep reminding them that it reduces the efficacy, and eventually will be to a point where you might as well just be using water. The other reason is that if it's sufficiently diluted, bacteria may start growing.
I think a lot of people grew up with their parents adding water to the bottle to make them last longer, and it just became commonplace. It's likely you can make that bottle last longer by just using less product in the first place.

Oh wow. This is in the same vein as someone secretly spitting in your food. A more appropriate equivalent is continuing your beer with water. Why ruin a thing someone uses and expects to be normal? Maybe they don’t notice it now, but maybe they’ll have to switch (needlessly!) brands thinking it got worse or just simply doesn’t work, and it’s a whole process trying out what works for your hair. Why throw that, intentionally, at someone?
