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-----

A "poop butt" and a "shit ass" have completely different meanings, despite the similarity of the words that make them up. (sh.itjust.works)

Disagree. While unconventional, the phrases would appear to be interchangeable.

If I wanted to call someone a shit ass near a 10 year old I might call them a poop butt.

To me, a baby is often a poop butt because of the diaper. Teenagers are often shit asses because they're rebelling.
