Only if it's exaggerated for the sake of appearances. Some people might do that, either to make themselves look important or seek attention, but most of the time, people are in fact busy with some task, or are carrying something for a reason. And generally, that comes with some purpose that is important to them at the time.

It's a logical conclusion to draw, even if some people may hijack that reasoning to be deceitful.

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
