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.

Regardless of the Warhammer stuff, the craziest shit differentiates the two.

Obviously one is good, and one is bad.

But being informed of the nocebo effect completely negates it. For placebo there is zero effect if you're made aware of the placebo effect before.

Also, there's a generic predisposition to the placebo effect, and it doesn't even matter if it's true.
