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
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Home is the adjective. It's a state of being.
Many times I'll walk in the door but need to log into work, and I'll say to my wife "I'm not home yet". As in, my external responsibilities are not completed and I am not available. When I'm available to my family or to relax, I have then become "home".
Edit: I meant adverb. It modified the state of being. Like being "away".
