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

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

Why don't we have AI Dashiell Hammett write a detective novel and then have AI John Huston direct AI Humphrey Bogart in that bastard? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Pmfao I thought they were all guys named AL

Then I realized it’s not Albert Humphrey Bogart

Dude I spent a good minute like.. Because their names are all Al? I am surprised I never knew Humphrey was his middle name... Why does anyone think that's a clever shower thought?

No. I want to VR the detectives role and interact with Mary Astor, Sydney Greenstreet & Peter Lorre. Problem is I’ll almost certainly wind up Mary’s patsy at the end, and it’ll be my neck in the noose in SingSing

Dude it’s coming soon. I can’t wait for more Frasier and I don’t mean reboot with old ass Kelsey and nobody else to play off of, I mean more Frasier.

Like more season 1 if I want. Side stories. Adventures of Bulldog. Fuckin surprise zombie apocalypse version of Frasier. Zombie Eddie, then Frasier and Daphne hiding the carcass so Martin doesn’t get upset at seeing him zombified. Later on Niles looks down into the vase they hid him in and shoots Frasier a look. “Not a word” Frasier warns him.

I’m gonna watch so much AI-generated Frasier. This is gonna be gay space communism, so there won’t be any copyright crap to worry about. Just a fresh episode of Frasier every night for the rest of my life so I can die happy.
