A dictionary is more useful than Urban Dictionary
(lemmy.world)
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:
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 felt that Urban Dictionary and a Dictionary are situationally useful. I would've never known what 'eepy' meant if I used a normal dictionary (honestly, I guessed what it meant just to test myself), which is always late to add new slang words. All the same Urban Dictionary would never be useful for finding the meaning of a well established word.
Then again Wikitionary has both, so just use that for everything (including scrabble if you wanna get chaotic)
