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

Probably something with sundials. ~6am going up to 12 at noon, then going 1-6pm if night and day are equal (I've never actually seen a sundial and I'm sure people got clever with them as time went on)
I mean a sundial doesn't even track hours so much as daylight before and after noon
