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

Since everyone in the comments seems to know, what's this a reference to?

I can't believe everyone knows such an obscure reference

This is not obscure, it's fucking David Bowie there

The movie starred David Bowie's cock, David Bowie was just a supporting actor.

I'm pretty sure they were being sarcastic. I've definitely heard of the movie. I just haven't seen it (and won't since it's apparently a musical).

(and won’t since it’s apparently a musical).

A musical with music written and performed by David Bowie. With Muppets.

Why would you not watch such a thing?

David Bowie and Muppets don't really mean anything to me, and I can rarely tolerate a musical.

I don't like musicals but this film is amazing, truly one of a kind. Absolutely worth watching!

I honestly never realized it's a musical. I knew there was music but it never felt like a musical to me.

Is that movie not burned into everyone's childhood? David Bowie dancing around. Dance baby, dance. If you are in your 20s, you probably don't know about it.
