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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Offered to take my adult kids to the beach -we will rent a pet-friendly house that's big enough for everyone if you get your dog fixed before we go; we don't want to be dealing with dog in heat at a beach house.
We booked the house. The dog did not get fixed. They came anyway but left a day early because...yep, the dog went into heat.
About an hour after they left, son called - "Wow! That immigration checkpoint was not as quick and easy as you described it!"
Apparently, standing on the side of the road with a pocketful of weed while your wife holds the dog and feds search your car can be unsettling.
"Sir, do you know why our dog alerted on your car?"
Welp, time to start a smuggling ring.
Your dog did what on my car???
