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.

There is someone who's the first and oldest member of gen Z, and they have absolutely no clue that's the case. (lemm.ee)

It's likely someone born in Kiribati on Jan 1st in the year 2000. Given the small population of the island, it probably isn't even too hard to find out.

Only if someone was born in Kiribati in the first hour of Jan 1. According to Google in 2000 its population was only 89000 and its birth rate was 31 per 1000 people per year. That gives an average of one person being born every 3.18 hours. I'm not sure what the population of the countries in GMT+13 is, but I think they're also a likely candidate.

Thing is these generation labels are not as common outside the US. I doubt they know or care.
