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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Why do Skodas have a heated rear windscreeen? To keep your hands warm while you push it.

(I've owned a few Skodas, they've all been good cars)

Lol that was lada where I'm from

What do you call a lada with two exhaust pipes? A wheelbarrow

What do you call a lada with a sunroof? A rubbish bin / trash can

What's the difference between a lada

There's a raffle at the bar. First prize, a lada. Second prize, two ladas.

How do you double the value of a lada? Fill it up.

You forgot one:

Guy goes to his Lada dealer and says “I want a gas cap for my Lada”. Dealer replies “…that seems like a fair trade.”

A man takes his Lada back to the dealership and says, "This car is useless! It'll only get to 80 up that hill."

"Well that's not bad," says the salesman.

"But," replies the man, "I live at number 93!"

From what I have seen they are pretty good these days. I'm the 80s and 90s though....
