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: 1
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
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- 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.

I've always seen literal maps showing what's what. Sounds like maybe none of the Gumps could read. But even so, wouldn't you learn to tell the shapes apart? It shouldn't keep surprising you over and over.
I wouldn't be so sure about that. I'm pretty sure that Lemmy skews older to such a degree that most users are my side of 35 and the movie is "only" 30 years old ๐
... So you're upset that I said card instead of map? Really? Whatever. Round here it's a little card.
Wasn't the part with him telling other people that set in the 80s or 90s?
I guarantee you 100% it's a showerthought.
I've seen them in recent years, but I haven't always seen the maps.
You've always had the iconic Whitman's sampler, haven't you?
Are there other boxes of chocolates?
None that matter.
Except maybe Sees. Not a big fan of the company but I've had some great chocolate assortments from them.
Momma told him that so he wouldn't feel bad being unable to read it.
All the cards I've seen always had pictures and text of what's what.
