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.

Boney M is a 1970’s West German disco group known for songs like Rasputin.

The M clearly stands for Mahoney.

It isn't though. It's named after a character on an Australian TV show, who was named after Napoleon Bonaparte and nicknamed Boney.

I went into a rabbit hole.

Tony Montana is named after Joe Montana.

The name Hannah Montana was made up by Miley Cyrus. The character was originally named Alexis Texas, but they went with her suggestion.

Alexis Texas (the adult film star) is a combination of her actual middle name and the state of Texas where she's from.
