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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

They annoy the hell out of me because people aren't even trying anymore to make them funny. Yesterday it felt like half of the memes were self-referential "haha it's so funny how we now post the old memes again" shit and people up voted them to the moon.
Sorry you didn't get the joke. They weren't referencing anything because they were only there to say "Hey, remember this one?" We all did, and the townspeople rejoiced.
If you don't get all warm and fuzzy for nostalgia, you aren't old enough yet.
Old memes are funny. Old meme templates with new low effort text is not and the kinds of like chuck testa is just plain spam and always has been.
Anyone can create memes. Only few can create clever and funny ones.
