I didn’t realize America has banned them. Good. I just figured they were a fad.

Hey we're actually ahead of the EU in something!

I want to see more regulations around plastics. We have the ability to make biodegradable plastics and we can research better ones. Plastic is a bane to the environment.

Shit we can't allow that. I'm gonna go to the Euro Parliament to lobby for banning 10 random things.

Ban bans, and brands while you're at it.

Just random? Like maybe ban ice cubes and fitness gyms and people with braces? Just randomness lol

I’ve been wondering what happened to that fad. Amazing that they were banned! Let’s do more

Edit: “replaced by metallized plastic glitter”? wtf

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

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