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

There was also the rumor of the actor who put the hamster up their bum.

It was all innocent stupidity and none of it was malicious though.

Richard Gere, and it was a gerbil.

Or the woman singer who drank so much of her male SO’s cum that she had to have her stomach pumped

Viral word of mouth rumors were wild back then

LOL, just commented it was 10G out of Rod Stewart in my childhood.

It was Richard Gere, and it was a Gerbil, not a hamster.

70s elementary school: Rod Stewart having 10 gallons of sperm pumped out of his stomach.

90s middle school: same urban legend, except it was 1 gallon from Gwen Stefani.
