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.

Here is another shower thought. You touch things other ppl who don't wash their hands touch all the time... That is worse in my opinion. Because you can wash your hands before touching anything else (belt included) it isn't as easy to wash your hands everytime on the go. Corona made me very aware of this
You touch money all the time. Money is filthy, There's a 100% chance you've held a $1 bill that was in a strippers ass-crack at some point. Same goes for being used for blow.
Not sure where you are (lots of places use $), but it's been many many years since I used cash for anything, and it's probably the same for anyone below retirement age in UK/Europe?
Paying for something in a shop typically means touching your bank card against the payment terminal.
Only place I use cash for is the Fish and Chip shop. They did have contactless during covid, but the transaction fees from the bank are a big % if most of your custom is small orders, so they bite those for online orders and it's cash only in the shop.
