Everyone should like at least one polarizing thing.

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:
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.
Probably a few genres that fit that description, but one i enjoy a lot is Afro-surrealism.
Media like "Atlanta" and "Sorry to Bother You" are a couple of personal favorites, but there's lots more
Adultswim's 'too many cooks in the kitchen' is also very good at this experience, but I wouldnt call it afro-surrealist.
Oh yeah Too Many Cooks is great, that's one of the Infomercials. Casper Kelly did that, Buddy, and YPFIGTH. He's one of my favorite creators in that sphere. The Adult Swim Yule Log specials he did are also really good.
I'll have to check out Atlanta, I guess I assumed it was some basic standard dramady. But I liked Sorry to Bother You. I thought the second half was some fever dream I had for a while.
Atlanta is definitely more subtle and less horror-comedy, but the surreal elements can catch you when you're not expecting it and it has the same effect IMO
