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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

akshully

It's "substitute user do", and defaults to root

IIRC

So it should be pronounced "suh doo"?

I'll have fun annoying people with this pronunciation, thanks!

The u is from user I assume, not substitute, so pronounced sue if you want to maintain the original pronunciation of the word it's from.

akshully, I didn't need to start with 'akshully', I just chose to.
