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
    • 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

“Fly Me to the Moon” is a stupid song. You want to know what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars? Extremely unpleasant. (lemmy.world)

Wait until you find out about Metaphors

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

What's a metaphor? I'm sailing on a sea of ignorance when it comes to taking the journey into learning, but my glass remains half full that I'll understand metaphors one day. The light bulb will turn on and I'll no longer be looking like I'm up shit creek without a paddle when it comes to these posts.
