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.

Hmm yes, and you call it an aristocrats joke despite the fact that it's obviously not vulgar...

It’s an Albany excretion.

It's the opposite, really.

Steamed Hams is a sketch that's so comedically perfect on a conceptual level that it works no matter how it's executed.

The Aristocrats joke is a horrifically tasteless, bad joke, and the challenge is to make it funny anyway in your own style.

I thought Succession was the new aristocrats joke

I feel like I need more context to understand what we are talking about here.

Succession is a popular show about a family of aristocrats that keep fucking eachother over but it’s funny enough to keep watching.

Is it a comedy?
