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.

It sounds way less offensive to those who decry the original terminology's problematic roots but still keeps its meaning intact.

Oh, as a programmer myself I'm perfectly aware of how shitty most codebases are. It's just that the context you said this in implied that people who care about political correctness are worse programmers. Dont act like this wasn't on purpose and hide behind "shitposting".

oh, no, i just hate all programmers, no discrimination here lmao.
