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

Unfortunately I feel like if that ever got popular then it would inevitably become tainted by people trying to promote certain products.

There might be some kind of trust system that could work. I have no idea of course but I'm envisioning something like Stack Overflow's system and a bit of community correction and authority à la Wikipedia.
