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.

You never wash your belt? I bet you never wash the poop-knife either.

Sheesh.

Some things probably should stay on Reddit. Like poop-knives.

Along with Jolly Ranchers and guys who break both of their arms.

I remember the jolly rancher story, but not the one where they broke both their arms.

It goes way back. That one must be at least 8 years old.

Let’s see… according to Know Your Meme it’s from 2011. You’re probably better off not reading about it.

Hopefully I never have to see or hear "poop-kinives" ever again.

Unfortunately it's become part of internet lore, I think it will last a long time as a reference or old in-joke. Luckily Lemmy is also giving us new ones, like beans or the 3-day no-poop challenge.

I was expecting some rando to comment on this with his fediverse username related to something poop-knify. Might still happen.

Tip: Just like on old Reddit, you have to use two spaces after a line to get a proper line break.

It's fine, the poop-knife gets wiped off when I start cutting up my food

Fellow poop knife enjoyers i see!

[–] cornbread@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

wtf are you doing with your poop knife to enjoy it? Poop knifing should be all business, sir.

[–] toaster@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago

I have a family member that had to use a poop knife growing up and I always wondered if that story was him....
