Showerthoughts

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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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
- Posts must be original/unique
- 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.

There's a girl in my run club like this. I deliberately run hard during the first couple km to wear her down. I ran into her at a work function one time and was going to say Hello, but she was already talking to four people.
AT THE SAME TIME
I don't mean like at one at a time - she was actively holding a conversation with each person while they all spoke over each other. I was bewildered. She might be a witch. But she was having the time of her life.
There are people that I’ve worked with like this. On their cell phone and desk phone plus talking to a person in the office, still able to listen for alerts in the shop. Seriously impressive.
Robots.
Witches gonna witch
This just proves that we're all NPCs, and she's the main character.
