Showerthoughts

29603 readers
1533 users here now

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

That is a great idea ๐Ÿ‘. Thank you for making Lemmy an even more positive place. I

'm still not sure what a language comment is.

But what about all those lovely 7+ paragraph diatribes we get instead? Lol

But yes, it can really sour my day just to have someone comment something halfway mean-- more positivity would be nice.

On Reddit I would be sarcastic, cheeky, blunt and arrogant. Only because everyone else is on there.

But here the community is nicer already. Even so, I want this place. to be a better place. So even if someone on lemmy is the above descriptors, I'll always be kind.

Great idea, so simple yet you're the only one who actually thought of this. You rock!

This is not a shower thought. It's just a thought.

Will bring out the good biscuits, and heat up the kettle for us all.

That's a very thoughtful thing to say!

I had a date last night. It was great.

Tonight I plan on having a grape.

(My ex wife laughed when I told her this)

Imo there's no need for it to be "random." Just add to the discussion in a friendly, supportive way.

[โ€“] HolidayGreed@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

What a great idea. Thanks for taking the time to share it with us :-)

You're very wholesome OP, we need more people like you ๐Ÿ˜

[โ€“] Hjalamanger@feddit.nu 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Well I'm probably not the most wholesome person here, I just happened to get ~100 wholesome comments on this post

[โ€“] Lolman228@kbin.social 2 points 8 months ago
