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-----

That's clearly where this idea stems from.
My dad still tries to pick me up, and he is way too old to be doing that to a grown adult.
Yeah but I pick my mum up now!!
I don't know why that is the saddest thing in the world but it somehow is.
It’s the same for pretty much anything you take for granted, basically by definition, which is most things.
