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-----

You can. I know a guy who eats a birch log every year. He literally sits on the couch pulling splinters from the log and chews on them while watching tv. He also grinds his egg shells and mixes with oatmeal.
A friend of mine doesn't peel shrimp tails
🤢
I don’t peel shrimp tails either. I don’t eat shrimp.
Are you sure your friend isn't just three beavers in a long coat?
Why wood he do such a thing?
Is this a thing? Why does he do it?
He believes there's some health benefits to it
This sounds like a terrible idea in the long-term.
Why? It's basically just fiber.
Wood is a renewable resource
