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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You're also the weirdo using singular verbs with a plural noun. An unusual choice for sure.
Edit: wow, thanks for the downvotes. I thought we had moved away from the childish knee-jerk reactions that reddit was famous for.
You can do that in some languages, even in english, just replace "all people" with "everyone". From the usage of "all people" I'm assuming @Siegfried@lemmy.world is a native speaker of a romance/latin language.
Yes, and I always screw up with these kinds of sentences.
So.. you're saying that if we change the word to one that works, then the sentence is okay.
