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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Dude... my kid will never get to experience this. I didn't even know this existed. Every other one of the links in here was waiting for me to hit play, too.
LOL! What app are you using to give such a warning?
Sync, it was my reddit client for years
What app are you using? The dev clearly knows their shit
You can't do either of those things on modern web browsers lol, what are you talking about?
exactly, old-fashioned Rick Roll was dead long before youtube ads
This is just false, I don't know where you got this idea
