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

Having all your memories of something good wiped completely is better than never being allowed to experience it again. (lemmy.world)

EDIT: I don't think I conveyed what I meant well enough in the post. I was talking about something like, say, reading. It's my favorite hobby. If I was forced to never read again, I'd be absolutely miserable. But if I completely forgot about reading, there wouldn't exactly be anything to miss.

I actually found a genie and wished to forget beautiful memories that I'd never experience again.

The pictures of my wedding looked nice, and I sure looked happy when my son was born. Kinda feel like I'd made a bad wish.
