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.

BUT YOU'RE FLYING! You are sitting in a chair. In the air!!! You're like a Greek god right now.... YOU ARE FLYING!!

I swear the Wright brothers would kick us all in the cunt right now if they knew... "Hey Orville, they're gonna make us wait on the runway a bit." "O shit, it hardly seems worth it then."
