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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Friends without a laugh track is 1000% funnier.
Especially Ross.....who becomes basically a serial killer vibe.
In The Big Bang Theory without the laugh track, Raj becomes just a huuuuuuge asshole.
Oh man you weren't kidding, at least drunk Raj becomes an unfunny asshole if nobody is laughing.

Here's the scary part......I've never seen THAT clip. I only saw 3 others without laugh track that were much worse than that one in terms of how much of an ass he was.
Now that you mention it... His character does tend to have offensive ~~humour~~ statements.
To be fair, with or without a laugh track, TBBT is depressing as fuck. I feel incredibly sorry for the faith of most characters.
