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.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Alarm clocks would be more effective if the sound was someone puking or gagging. (lemmy.world)

I always hit snooze on my alarm clock, but I jump right out of bed if I hear someone puking or gagging (e.g., kids or my dog).

That's why I always use same ringtone fort both alarm and calls. Sort of programmed my brain to register it as important unless I am exhausted and in deep sleep then nothing wakes me up.

Edit: it's important to note that I almost never snooze. I just set another alarm if I needed few more hours or just power through it.
