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 (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

This was my best showerthought I left on reddit. I didn't want to leave it into the oblivion.

whoa! I've only bumped into people IRL that I met online.

For me it was a customer that bought a cell phone from my store. I mentioned I used to work at a mall and they recognized the name and mentioned they had bought a phone there once while traveling overseas.

Kind of just took off from that point. It’s not like we had a deep connection or anything.
