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

I would get it for the warmth, not the appendage measuring contest.

*After thinking about it, it's shocking how many people here think the only value of a product is the brand and not the actual product.

Knowing nothing about what badge you speak of, I'm just going to assume the bragging rights implied by keeping the badge is how much you hate Canadian Geese and want people to know their suffering is keeping you warm due to the specific brand's inhumane method of harvesting the down.

If that was the case, I'm a badge on kinda guy.

(I have a Carhartt and while I don't think anything of the status, I know these are highly desired and often stolen so I've put patches over the logos on my jacket just as a security measure; nobody is stealing an UwU jacket)

Wait do they actually make the coats out of Canadian Geese? I thought that was just the name
