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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I'm going to say it's like a chicken and egg scenario.
It's recommended that you don't judge a thing or a person based on a quick glance. That's good advice.
Book covers are designed specifically to be judged at a quick glance because they know that's what people do, despite the advice they were given.
I think it's also true in reverse. Like if the book cover looks really cool but the story is hot garbage.
