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.

Like engagement rings denote the engagement... Maybe it's just English being its usual mess

A wearer of an engagement ring receives it when they become engaged, and a wearer of a wedding ring receives it when they wed. Seems pretty consistent to me.

I dunno, doesn't seem like toe rings and cock follow the same naming convention.

Finger rings don't, either. Not when they're called that.

Oh yeah, and pinky rings!

At least onion rings are honest.

You get three rings at the shocking. The one for the pinky is called the "stinker ring"
