      I’m wearin’ myself a T-shirt That says “The world is my ashtray” Our hearts pump dust And our hair’s all gray And I just got a message that says “Yeah, hell has frozen over” I got a phone call from the Lord sayin’ “Hey, boy, get a sweater, right now!”

    True, that’s why you have to appreciate that all that glitters is gold.

      Some of my homies include wormhole aliens, and they don’t even understand linear time.

    But Blue Oyster Cult were practicing faulty logic with

    Seasons don’t fear the reaper

    First of all, how can you know that?

    Second of all, even assuming that they don’t, how does that imply that

    We can be they they are

    Returning to

    So do the sun, the wind, and the rain

    It would indeed be logical for all these things, including seasons, to fear the reaper if they do feel emotions (which there is no way to know one way or another), as they all depend on the sun existing, and the sun will blow up in about 4 billion years, so seasons, the sun, the wind, and the rain will succumb to the reaper like the rest of us.

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 most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
