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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

From what I'm gathering, they have very different pronunciations in British English as well. I'm not sure about this shower thought, it seems like OP might be the one that's mistaken?
That's a fair assumption lol I didn't learn for a long time that it wasn't just the English way of pronouncing ass. It flows perfectly with the other differences in word pronunciation that it never even crossed my mind they could be different words.
