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.

I would get it for the warmth, not the appendage measuring contest.

*After thinking about it, it's shocking how many people here think the only value of a product is the brand and not the actual product.

Canada Goose is the warmest, high quality, lifetime warranty, and made in Canada. That's the value. Do you think the antarctic program picked Canada Goose because of brand imaging? No. Because they are the best parkas. Didn't think I would have had to post to unpopular opinion.

Antarctic program probably chose Canada Goose because they gave a special discount in exchange for brand recognition.
