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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

More people are distracted by their phones on the toilet than in the shower

Can confirm. Commenting from the throne.

Who could've possibly known.

Why not both?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

What a throwback to the golden age of meme culture.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

hahaha I wish I was kidding but some people do.

There are actually more cells in our brain than brains in our entire body

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Looks like you're having diarrhoea, my friend.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

The thinker. Does he look like taking a shower?

I rest my case.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I find most interesting thoughts are as I fall asleep.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sometimes while falling asleep, I'd start thinking the weirdest shit, only to realize how weird the my thoughts are.

It’s called shitposting.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Hard disagree. I’m on my phone while on the toilet. In the shower I have nothing but the voices in my head to listen to.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I make up songs in the shower, I do not sing when I shit

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Lier! Everyone has a tuba playing for the base notes. Some even play the bassoon. Legend has it, if you hold off the performance for more than 3 days, you'll find you can play the flute.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So where is the c/toiletthoughts?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

c/shitposting

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Be the change you wish you want to see in this world.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

What does he want to be a toilet thought?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Does somebody know how to create a community?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

the no poop post was rumored to be a toilet thought

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Only if I forget my phone in the toilet

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

And if I don't have thoughts on either what's my problem?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you one of those people who don't have an internal dialogue?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well yea I do talk internally to myself, but not "shower thoughts", I wish I did tho

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do you wake up with eureka moments?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Not often, and they are not quite the level of a showerthought

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

On the toilet, I seem to be better at problem-solving. But in the shower tend to come up with new* and deeper thoughts.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But in the shower tend to come up with you

😨 😨 😨

Bloody Siri

3 days without pooping is 3 days wasted

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Shower beats toilet for thinking, every time! Its the steam! My toilet rarely steams.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Which kind of thought was this one?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I applaud you for your honesty.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Me more for their patience.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Excremeditation.

Why? You got one of those $4k butt massaging lazy boy toilets? I wouldn’t say most of us have them on the toilet.
