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.

It does make you wonder what monkeys given infinite time (and somehow being coerced into using typewriters) would evolve into.

In pretty sure it would involve a hierarchy based on which monkeys are best at beating other monkeys to death with typewriters.

Counterpoint: The Bonobo monkeys developed a hierarchy based on their mastery of cunnilingus.
