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
- 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
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

If it's such a paradise it wouldn't have an absolutely spastic way of measuring the temperature
For the other 97% of the planet, the yank means 21 to 29 degrees, I had to look it up
Because measuring temperature based on human body reflective saline solution's interaction with temperature change instead of regular water definitely qualifies as "spastic."
Then again it looks like you're one of those euro losers who copes with us making you give up all your colonies post war for rebuilding money by redirecting all those attitudes about "the uncivilized world" onto the developed country that just happens to have a high rate of racial diversity.
BTW Mr. "American culture is racism", how are those Roma folks doing?
how many school shootings today?
How much of the reparations you owe the entire developing world you pay today?
What an absurd and intellectually inferior unit of measurement you have elected to use here. For the enlightened among us the philistine means 294 to 302 Kelvin.
It's just Kelvin, you poseur.
The shame...I have corrected my error.
While the conversion is appreciated, there's no reason to be an ass about it. OP labeled it, so it's not like it was confusing or making unnecessary assumptions about the audience. So really you're the one who just comes across as completely culturally insensitive.
The vast majority, by a fucking huuuuuuge margin, has no fuckin idea how Fahrenheit works
It's culturally insensitive and selfish to use it on the World Wide Web
maybe just go look it up its what i have to do when some idiot uses celsius (wtf even is that crap????)
american culture - guns, school shootings, medical debt bankruptcy, idiotic units of measurements
down vote away. im not wrong. seeth more.
Dude probably posted this and then started listening to some pop or rock music without even blinking
Popular music only exists in america
You think america invented pop or rock music?
Poor guy can’t listen to Queen because monarchy, can’t listen to AC/DC because he’s got only 110 volts, and can’t listen to ABBA because the spelling is too complicated.
