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:
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.
Could you provide some examples of people making the opposite claim?
barges in completely naked, carrying nothing
"Don't mind me. I'm not important."
If you weren't important, the corporations wouldn't want to acquire your deepest secrets.
Like... Why you're naked & stuff...
No one would make that statement, but some sure as hell act like it when they're 'super busy or carrying a lot of stuff'.
it does. you have something to do and that is important. if someone has nothing to do the least they can do is acknowledge someone else has more to do and therefore that's more important than the doing of nothing
And my thing is the most important! That's why i pass on the shoulder, cut in at the exit, and push into the elevator first.
what the fuck are you talking about lmfao
Everyone thinks they're busier with more important things than everyone else. Wasn't that the point of the post?
Lot of assumptions in that silly generalization.
oh mine but not OP's? ok
They're both silly, yours just seemed more so to me because you followed up on a silly generalization with another silly generalization.
Only if it's exaggerated for the sake of appearances. Some people might do that, either to make themselves look important or seek attention, but most of the time, people are in fact busy with some task, or are carrying something for a reason. And generally, that comes with some purpose that is important to them at the time.
It's a logical conclusion to draw, even if some people may hijack that reasoning to be deceitful.
Pfft! Spoken like someone who isn't super busy OR caring a lot of stuff.
