Your version reminds me of Vonnegut's that was something like this in an imagined conversation with Mary Shelly: "Dr. R - Does it bother you when people call the monster in the book 'Frankenstein'? MS - Not really. There were two monsters in the book, after all, and one of them was named 'Frankenstein.'"

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
