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.

How is this different than when boomers ripped on Fiats in the 70’s? The cars were also poorly manufactured, and in the case of this example, were also known for shitting the bed when the weather got bad.

I didn't say it was different or better, Fiat's are still pretty terrible in reliability rankings as well

Just saying that it’s the same thing. Different generation, but still people ripping on cars have justified reliability problems. Younger generations do the same thing that the boomers did.
