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
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Humans have about 21 senses.
Pain and touch are 2 different ones, balance is an other, hunger, suffocation, gag reflex, temperature, ... it goes on and on. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sense
My favorite sense to describe is proprioception, being able to tell the position your body is in.
That’s the only one I ever remember except for temperature
