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

Great idea! That's another couple of accounts you can open up, and maybe even a few credit lines when both the parents have used theirs up.
Kidding obviously, because this place gets pretty rough sometimes.
I mainly ask, because when I worked in an armory there was a dude named 'GonzalezLamas-Suarez' whose name I had to handwrite on a very small line every single time I signed him out gear. It was the smallest font I'd ever seen on a uniform before.
Then you have those weird ones like "de Jesus" where it just doesn't make sense to be to have a preposition as part of your last name.
Same for my brother ha. His superiors actually just shorten it to one word when talking to him if it isn't super official.
