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.

I always thought that was a poor design. Aliens likely would find that disgusting.
What interests me is that I believe all warm blooded animals also share this trait. Not certain that is true but if so, wouldn't that mean it evolved in a very early period?
Also what I find interesting is that the layout of humans to most animals is the same. A head with eyes then nose then mouth among with the brain behind it. Most of the organs are in similar locations. It seems strange that there would not be more variety.
