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.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

We never wash our belts, although they are the first thing we touch when leaving the toilet, even before we wash our hands (feddit.de)

It's not quite the same, but if I tie my shoes I usually wash my hands if there's opportunity. There's got to be some funk on those things given their proximity to the ground, being in the field of fire at a urinal, etc. Also, after COVID I'm probably a more chronic handwasher than I was prior, particularly before meals.
