Sounds like the perfect place to run ads for Starbucks (or painkillers in countries where you can legally advertise for drugs online).

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.
