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

If they haven't gotten into this habit in the last 20 years anyways, I don't think the SEO spam was that last straw. That ship has sailed.
People are born everyday. Grandma may have had 20 years to figure it out, but kids these days won't have the opportunity to search the web and find information the way we did.
True, but the people born recently have existed with some kind of search capabilities, unlike grandma. They might not be able to optimize their queries like us, but they've still got ways to figure it out. They have habits, just different ones.
Grandma is the one who never bothered making the habit, because she was used to a time when no habit was possible.
