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.

We solved this like a year ago! Though I had completely forgotten what it actually was.

I’m the little dude who lays 3 stairs and then goes boldly forward.

I’m the diggy diggy hole lemming

Lemmings is just the best name for us. It's so anti-corporate, you can rest assured not a single PR team would ever greenlight it in the history of PR teams. We don't need a PR team to approve our nickname, we don't want a PR team to approve our nickname, we don't want to have anything to do with whatever a PR team wants.

In case anyone was unsure, lemmings don't even jump off cliffs, that was literally just Disney staff throwing lemmings off cliffs like a bunch of psychopaths.

NO! I said months ago I hate this. I still hate this.

You’re better fall in line and jump off this cliff with the rest of us.

Your comment was so applicable to any of my comments that I assumed you were replying to the one where I said I wasn't going to start wearing pants at work.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

Less talking. More dropping trou.

So what's your preferred alternative?

[–] grte@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 days ago

I think lemurs like the op said is better. However, I also think the ship has probably already sailed and lemmings is what it is.

I despise that term and refuse to use it
