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

I always took it the opposite. You only live once so be super careful and don't do anything dangerous.
This is hilarious
There's actually a song by The Lonely Island about exactly this.
The way people use it should’ve risen some eyebrows on your part if that is the case.
Shouting “YOLO” as one jumps off a roof (to a pool, for example) seems to be the contemporary stereotype for its usage. I’ve only seen it used that way.
If you’ve stuck with the interpretation this long, you must have very curious views on carefulness and safety 😁
You oughta look out
