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

I always did this on Reddit too and it saved my ass a couple of times. Especially because Reddit disallows comments that are too long. The web UI will just silently fail and your long ass comment is gone.

That was one of the advantages of using third-party clients: whenever a comment I was using Slide to write failed to post, it automatically saved a copy so that I could try again.
