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

Now you and me battle for the supremacy of our respective generations on the fields of Usenet, to honour our ancestors.

I remember LiveJournal. Get off my lawn.

Dear live journal

Current mood: Apathetic.

Oof. Blast from the past. Also, upon remembering the lyrics, that song did not age well.

It's a time piece, you know? Like American History X, only hilarious instead of genuinely moving.

I'll have you know Tom was my first friend on MySpace, young whippersnapper!
