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.

Nice! I'm going to have a look at my old HS yearbook and see who's opposite page...

More like rubbing their faces against each other, unless they took the picture planning for a well positioned kiss.

Wut?

Haven't you heard? Every country has year books and OP isn't leaving the rest of the world out!

I don't know anywhere else they're used, but in the US at the end of a "high school" year everyone gets their picture taken and they can put in a quote below their picture, this is then put in a book with the pictures laid out in a grid pattern.

This means that when you go to another page or close the books, the pictures on the other page touch and kiss!?!? No idea why the US would ever allow pictures with minors kissing but who knows.

Ah, American defaultism strikes again!

[–] Kedly@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

In this case its at least NORTH American since Canadian schools do yearbooks as well

Do you do class rings and have pep rallies?

[–] Kedly@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

No idea what a class ring is? Not sure about pep rallies

We have to clarify every time something is American? People don't even realize because, well, it's so normal to an American. It's not like it's done spitefully.

This only just federated, but yes things like this do indeed have to be clarified or at least edited afterwards with a tag or something.

Are you 13?

[–] FizzlePopBerryTwist@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago

I'm triple 13

I dont know why you're getting downvoted. This sounds EXACTLY like the thoughts I'd get when I was 13. Simpler times.
