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

There must surely be someone out there in some galaxy or solar system somewhere.
The universe is simply too big for there not to be.
It's insanely big so no matter how small the chances were for our lives to exist someone or something must also have achieved that somewhere.
There's a saying in the astronomy circles. Things happen either once, an infinite number of times, or never.
