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

The thing they don't tell you about showing up to vote is that there often are sexy singles in your area. (dubvee.org)

Ok, so less a shower thought and more a "random observation while standing in line to vote" thought, but my mind is about equally checked out in both scenarios, so I'll count it.

Which is why so many women hate talking to men they don't know: there's so often that request for a date after even the most innocuous small talk.

Yes I guess that's true, and it doesn't even help if he'd be chill about accepting a "no thanks," because she can't know that in advance, and so many guys aren't. I guess there's always the possibility of running into each other in a bar or similar situation where they could assume meeting someone might be a goal of being there. "Didn't I meet you when we were both voting for Harris?" would be a change from the usual lines.
