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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Believe it or not, sexism!
They usually place the man's name first and then only pass on those names.
We just made up portmanteau names for our kids, based on what sounded good. Over time, this should improve the overall coolness of last names.
So if you portmanteau four hyphenated names you'd have quite an awesome mouthful.
Example based on some names I've encountered...
Garcia + Roothopper + Nishigawa + Smith = Garhopgawaith? Nishciasmithopper? Smootgawacia?

Sounds like something out of the Swedish dub of Guardians of the Galaxy
