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. 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
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 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-----

Also, "gruntled" should be the opposite of "disgruntled".
It is, check the OED.
Well I'll be damned. I've used it as a word regardless, lol, but my spell check still hasn't gotten the memo apparently.
I find this whole conversation whelming.
Stay whelmed.
So, would you say you’re more gruntled now?
You’re not fully gruntled till you’re zestfully gruntled.
And something that has not been debunked is still bunk.
