Showerthoughts

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 most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Embarrassing?
Oh well. Maybe on the next Revolution.
I like mine.
Its the username I wanted on reddit. Blast whoever had it there, vengeance is mine!
My Reddit name was “ihaveredonme” which is not how British people would say it.
You know that you could just make another account, right?
Cool and anonymous enough.
I'm a 2023 Ford pinto
I should have taken a super short nick, but alas.
Too late
It's how I've chosen to see myself from this day on.
Oh my username screwed all night alright. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Tryin this one out. Let's see how it agee
Meh. It's not embarassing if the literature i'm exploring is totally ~~porn~~ not porn.
Huh.
Well, I'm much happier with this one than my old reddit one anyway.
I am content with good enough.
Still unable to.
Totally not a screwup
I barely changed mine but I heard that you can't trust someone with boy in their name and also I grew older so it was time to change mine.
What app is closest to RIF?
Jeroba is dope so far
Jerboa works well since last lemmy update which reduced the amount of packets needed.

Are people this averse to making a new account?
Seems like privacy-oriented Lemmy wouldn't care that much but even Reddit with its karma system wasn't that big of a hurdle to new accounts
Edit: apparently Lemmy DOES actually have a karma system
