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.

  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Boat captains HATE this one trick!

Captain isn't driver on boats.

You waited two weeks to misread a comment. Good job.

Why's the time relevant? Did it go stale?

Well, as I'm a skipper I'll try this again. A skipper or captain doesn't have to be at the helm. They can competently do their job with any member of the crew at the helm. On larger vessels it's another matter, but it still doesn't require the captain to be in driver control. Do you understand yet?

My comment had nothing to do with driving boats, champ.
