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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Damn, was really hoping there was some deeper stuff I was missing. So you're a subscriber to Egg Theory then?
It’s not called the Egg Theory. Its called Advaita Vedanta and it’s the oldest religion/metaphysics we have written records for.
And it can indeed get pretty deep. You should read Shankara‘s commentaries on the Vedas.
It's called that from that little story about god talking to a recently deceased dude with the end result being that this universe is an egg?
Awesome. I guess I'm an egg theory subscriber.
