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.

I get that, but like the things I mentioned, most porn/comics/TV is boring, predictable, generic crap and a waste of time and brain cells. So, I don't understand why most porn/comics/TV is popular either. Absolute garbage! I can think of a thousand things I'd rather be doing than sifting through all that generic crap.
Well, then you just watch the good ones. It’s been ages since TV Shows (and anime) got popular, there’s stuff like Breaking Bad or Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood that are tried and tested and almost everyone likes. There’s personal taste too, sure, but I think it’s hard to find someone that doesn’t like a single genre that has at least 3/4 classic acclaimed shows.
