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

MODERATORS
Great, so even on Lemmy 'Shower Thoughts' are just statements.
I did write a whole paragraph below the title, do people have more complex shower thoughts?
No, the fact it's so complex is part of the problem. It's an interesting discussion to be had but it's not a Shower Thought.
A Shower Thought is something like "If Eminem’s Mom wanted to she could probably make a good amount of money selling her own spaghetti sauce" (stole this from Reddit). It's a random thought that comes to you, serves no real purpose but still just kind of lingers in your mind.
