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.
It's because the hot comment sorting algorithm is different from Reddit's. It favours fresh discussions over older threads even if they have more upvotes.
