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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I know when I pronounce it, it’s different on the a/e - NZ English.
We do also tend to change the o at the same time, at least I do. Although I spent 10 years in the uk in my 20's so that has had some effect on how I speak.
Depends on how fast I’m talking but, yup. South islanders do it more than north ime.
