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.

People just want affordable homes- a cornerstone feature of pretty much every modern generation before Millennials.

Obviously there are better ways to build a home, but those avenues seem closed.

Shipping container houses are not it. I'd call it a scam, but that typically requires something actually for sale. But if it helps: it's a scam.
