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
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

MODERATORS
Even worse are the self promoting ads on platforms that claim to not have ads; such as Apple TV, HBO, and the like.
Right? “Oh here’s an ad of our service that you are already subscribed to and actively using right now”.
"These ads are also immune to buying an ad free tier."
Now with Ad Nauseum™
With HBO, it's usually an ad for another one of their shows, rather than an ad for the thing you're already subscribed to. I'm okay with that, even though I usually skip the ads anyway.
