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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Some of those spam fighters did this, emulating an old bumbling man who avoided any "yes" like answers that could be malinterpreted as consent to anything, and kept the caller busy for many minutes with pauses, uncommitted "Hmms", and useless questions. But I doubt that this program is available anywhere.
That sounds like Lenny and it's awesome.
Jolly Roger Telephone Co has some great ones too.
