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
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I don't disagree but that's less of a problem with good writing where the ad isn't forced or obvious...in fact, it can be much more effective if done that way versus taking you out of the moment and shoving the product in your face like "BUY THIS" during the middle of a touching scene. But at least with The Price is Right, it's just a gameshow and not some sort of drama or whatever.
