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

Cheers. I couldn't find a crazy ideas equivalent so I settled here as it is a sort of shower thought.

I love a good weird niche community, thanks for sharing. Recently also joined !aneurysmposting@sopuli.xyz, similar vein

[–] Contingencyfork@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

Hear hear. This is quite literally a shitty million dollar idea

I much prefer this to when the pharmacists sniff at my butt at entry and then give advice on diet and nutritional supplements.

Thanks, I needed the extra context.

Kind of reminds me penis inspection day back in school

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

But that wasn't the real penis inspector...

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 1 points 4 weeks ago

I don't think they do that to kids anymore...

* Dog sniffs my butt then walks to one of those programmable phrase button mats * "Lose weight, fatso!"

"...who programmed that button?"

"speak to the Pharmacist about ozempic today"

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

I guess you could think this while in a shower.

[–] Hikermick@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

I don't listen to diet advice from my doctor, why would I listen to a dog?

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

advice: woof wof, wof woof wof, wooof wof.

[–] OmegaMouse@pawb.social 4 points 4 weeks ago

Well I... I mean, it's not... I guess? Hm 🤔

[–] AmidFuror@fedia.io 4 points 4 weeks ago

Ripe for abuse like current advice based on personal genetics. There's so much malarkey already sold in the over-the-counter (non-prescription) pharmacy area of US stores, more scams would fit right in.

Train them to point at ultra common smells, then scam the customer saying it means need to eat some ultra expensive supplement, but only today there's a buy two get one free promotion

Better a sniff dog than an over-enthusiastic proctologist.

Colonoscopy was a walk in the park compared to the gastroscopy tube. That hard metal thingy made me feel like victim of the Alien.
