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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Seems like just about everyone has a video doorbell and/or other cameras monitoring their property. Took it for granted in my youth without even knowing it.

The point isn't that they don't have fun. Its that they clean up so good we don't have to clean shit when we get home.

That’s how it worked before the cameras.

My parents knew I had had a house party because it was too clean, they said I wouldn't have cleaned if I wasnt trying to hide something. They were right tbh

They spoil it for the rest of us. You don't say that shit. You make a sly remark on how exceptionally clean everything is and carry on with your day. Smh

Maybe they knew from something else and just told that to avoid me knowing what it really was 🤔
