I don't disagree but that's less of a problem with good writing where the ad isn't forced or obvious...in fact, it can be much more effective if done that way versus taking you out of the moment and shoving the product in your face like "BUY THIS" during the middle of a touching scene. But at least with The Price is Right, it's just a gameshow and not some sort of drama or whatever.

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