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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

As far as we know, there are only taco bells on the planet earth. As far as we know, taco bell is only a taco chain not a secret society masquerading as fast food taco restaurant. As far as we know, taco bell did not organize the JFK assassination. As far as we know, taco bell was not used to feed POWs during WW2. As far as we know, taco bell is not the public face of the order of the taco, a global shadow government that has ruled the realm of man since the dawn of time, deciding who wins wars, who develops technology, and who wins elections.

But they are the favorite to win the fast food wars

Didn’t Pizza Hut win that outside of the US?

Eh, same company.

Given the incomprehensible vastness of the universe, it’s the height of arrogance to assume that Taco Bell has not arisen in other star systems. The only thing doubtful is that extraterrestrial Taco Bells have visited Earth.

Ah, the Fertaco Paradox!
