I think you might be hitting something else besides the shower

I like my shower to be wobbly

Watch out what you type when you want to come back! Who knows how the showers look like in Triangulum Galaxy

So the aliens are gonna use english, you certain?

What else are they going to use? Venusian? Spanish? Let's not be silly

If they haven’t visited us how will they know what the planet is called and how to spell it?

[-] cmgvd3lw@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 8 months ago

Hey how do we know the name of planets like Kepler 22.

[-] FelipeFelop@discuss.online 1 points 8 months ago

That’s our name for it. If there is a planet or planets circling Kepler 22 they won’t call it Kepler 22.

Similarly any aliens won’t call Earth by that name. For example, Klingons might have called Earth yoSpu'bogh QongDaq until they made contact.

So aliens wouldn’t type Earth into sat nav but whatever they call it. Now that’s a showerthought !

Since the universe changes, you would need at least 4 dimensions to locate earth.

Now that's a fucking shower thought! Random crazy shit you wouldn't think the rest of the day because you're too busy to let the mind wander.

That's nonsense, because they're obviously looking for Erde.

I have a slightly different theory. Basically they haven't arrived because they look at their navigator, sees that our planet is named dirt and just assume the developers forgot to delete a test value.

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-----
