No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

(Assuming the shower is running. Any temperature.)

The best I could come up with was a hot soup, but eventually you'll get more water then broth. There has to be a better food out there for those hungry showers!

My kids will eat anything in the shower. But I would say mango, I can only eat that over the sink anyway, so messy.

What a question to see after the Quora post.

Shower orange!!!

Is beer a food?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Quite the contrary. The premise is that any question, no matter how apparently silly, weird or simple deserves a proper response. "No silly questions" as in "there are no silly questions".

curry. It may not appear ideal at first glance: water sprays on that and your flavor goes down the drain, literally. HOWEVER, with careful placement of the food container, you could effectively minimize the amount of water getting into your curry, minimizing loss of flavor. If your curry is too hot and you start to sweat, you can simply turn the tap colder to cool yourself down while you eat. When you're done, you don't need a finger bowl to clean your hands either, just run them under the shower water. Best enjoyed with rice, as the roti will get too soggy.

A loaf of bread.

Start raw, but shower so hot they are cooked at the end

Those wings that are so hot they make you cry. That way you're in the shower and no one can see your tears.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I used to drink cold bottles of beer while showering. Very doable.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Most fruit seems to be a good choice IMO. Even veggies may be a decent option. Grapes maybe?

Fruit is generally waterproof, so it's not like it will taste different in the shower.

I think anything with flour is probably a bad choice. Nobody likes soggy bread/cake/whatever.

I'd also consider any kind of cheeses or cured meat. Maybe a nice meat/cheese/fruit assortment?

I'd love to introduce you to the best cake: Berry Chantilly Cake.

Someone once said oranges are perfect for showers. Nice citrus aroma, no sticky mess from juice spray. I could see it ..

Frozen watermelon

Crunchwrap supreme. Next question.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

At the worst point of my life I indeed had a shower crunch wrap after a brutal graveyard shift. This is the answer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Some stores sell a little shelf for your shower crunchwraps. They have a little suction cup on them. It's a really clever design.

Some scuba divers train to eat bananas underwater. I suspect that wouldn't be too bad in the shower

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

…why do they train that?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The potassium reacts with some of the salt water minerals to help them rapidly float to the surface if they run out of oxygen

Chemist here. All I can say is it's illegal to lie on the internet.

Why didn’t anyone tell me this sooner

Hah! If you'd said you were a lawyer I'd have believed you. Idiot. /S

I like to drink beer in a shower. Not sure if you count it as food

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Coffee is also nice. Not sure about tea...

It might help... you know - with the persistent dehydration.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Something dry that even in hot humid air won't spoil quickly.

Cheese seems like a good bet. Certain cooked and cured meats similarly; salami or beef jerky, cooked sausages etc.

But ultimately why would you eat in the shower? The real problem is either time management issue or eating too much of you really need to cram food in your gob while showering. Also would waste more water and time in the shower if you're both eating and cleaning yourself.

Its the sort of seemingly innocuous question that actually shows you maybe should be taking a long hard look at your life priorities. The shower is a good place to think about that, maybe while chewing on a block of cheddar cheese.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Maybe they just enjoy long showers and get peckish part way through.

You don't know them.

Your statements are very judge-y. Leave OP alone. If they want to eat in the shower, let them.
