Hoarders must have really good room acoustics.

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:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
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
- 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.

yeah, but if it's hoarders - it's EVERYTHING.
Trust me on this. We've tried to intervention some relatives repeatedly, their house is a terrifying example of fire hazards X man-trap stacks of:
I can't even begin to fucking deal with this shit from across the country, and their relations in-town have so far failed to get through to them.
I'd say the acoustics would be pretty fucking bad.
Oh, I totally get you. My late father was a hoarder, and a fairly messy one at that ☹️
My late grandparents on his side were antique collectors, fairly well organized at that. It was almost like walking through a mini museum when I'd visit them. But still, they had a lot of shit!
And yes, my late grandmother did have one really creepy room with over 200 porcelain baby dolls!
Very creepy!
I've had to lighten my load by like 95% since they passed away, just way too much stuff!
