Couldn't answer it back then, can't answer it now as an adult.

Same. I'm 37 and still don't know what I want to be when I grow up, lol

I'm 37 too, I wanted to be a race car driver... I now sell auto parts. I hold the track record at my local go kart track, so that's something lol

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.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
