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

What if only those who commit suicide get reincarnated? Like you failed the exam and you're forced to re-take it. (sh.itjust.works)

One of the book series I really liked is “Odd Thomas”, and a recurring theme is this life is boot camp for the challenges you’ll face in the next. This showerthought is right in line with that: clearly some people need to repeat boot camp

Man, I love that series. The last book, I cried off and on all day when I finished it. Just beautiful.

I’ve read through a couple times now and always appreciate it … except my library never seems to have them all or not the “next one”.

It’s been a few years and I don’t think I ever checked for the ebook at my library ….. you may have given me my weekend plan
