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

I thought I was the only person who felt that way! It makes me so angry when people with spouses and kids or even parents who love them do hyper dangerous sports. Like surely there has to be something more worth doing that doesn't orphan your children??
(Obviously any sport has some risk as do things like driving, I'm referring to things like free diving or free climbing where there's no way to have a real safety net)
Im gonna edit my post because everyone is too hung up on extreme sports.
Horror movies also fall under the same category of thing. It's not about the risk, it's about triggering fear response. I just picked extreme sports because I couldn't fit the whole premise in the title
Ohhh yeah sorry, I might have misinterpreted the point of your post! Obviously no one dies from watching a horror movie so my comment doesn't apply 🤪
