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.

Well, If you’d like a woman’s perspective- it will do nothing but strip your skin and hair like extra strength laundry soap. Soap in general is really good at removing oil and dirt but it doesn’t distinguish. That is why conditioner is needed, to put back what the shampoo took out. Mixing them together make them both ineffective. As for soap, most body washes may make your skin soft, or have a certain scent - but you still have to wear lotion after. It’s the body wash’s conditioner so to speak. Shampoo can be modified to be less damaging, be safe for color, skin conditions or treat dandruff.
That’s why 3-1 is a gimmick. You don’t have to have 113 products. Just a shampoo, a conditioner, any soap at all and a good lotion.
