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 most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Agreed. “Pube” is short for “pubic hair”.
The face is not a pubis
But the hair comes in due to puberty.
You've got your arm pit hair, your face pit hair, and your crotch pit hair. It's just pit hair all around.
I like this one better
As evidenced by the term "bearded clam"
Lips are technically your asshole.
Yeah i love reminding my wife we are one butthole to butthole tube when we kiss.
She on the other hand hates being reminded
Hmmm... I wonder, would a vacuum be created if you both started farting?:-?
Get stuck together, what a risky idea haha.
I saw something the other day where they were discussing how if frodo swallowed the ring he wouldn't disappear because it is outside of him. As in your intestines and stomach are "outside your body" as they are essentially a tube feeding all the way through you. This reminded me of that for whatever reason.
Great way to smuggle it to Mordor. In the prison pocket
What's it gots in it's prison poketses precious
As the ring passes through his intestines, surely some poop will get inside the ring. Does the poop inside Frodo turn invisible then?
Does the poop inside Frodo turn invisible
Ah, the age-old question that has been dogging all of science for centuries!
Can excrement weild the ring of power. Welcome to BuzzFeed where we've assembled 30 random people to figure out if it's possible.
I don't know about the RING of power, but excrement can clearly wield the offices of power 🤷
But the ring isn't inside you when you wear it on your hand.
The ring being inside/outside of you doesn't affect the ring's properties; it's whether you're inside or outside the ring.
Yes, the ring has to encompass part of you. Being that the ring is in a tube that is "outside you" it never would be encompassing you. Unless it got stuck somewhere and wrapped around your intestines
))<>(( Forever.
If your face is technically your pubic area then yes, you are correct. But I don't think that may be true for a few people.
What about those who are described as a “dickhead”?
Nice face pubes, dickhead!
I now have a new insult ready and loaded.
I am stealing that too
Honestly, as a penis owner, "dick beard" sounds worse than "face pubes":-?
Hahaha fucking dick beards
It's like neck beard but for cunts
Pubes are technically pubic beards
Crotch beards
Except it's on my balls
Eyelashes are technically nose hairs.
You say that like it's a bad thing
I don't personally think so 🤷
Username checks out
So do the face pubes 😁
theres a joke going around that musk cant grow facial hair, so when he did, it looks like had pubes transplanted to his face and scalp.
And my face is a Seventies centerfold.
Interesting.. so everybody with curly pubes have curly hair?
