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.

I wouldn't say anyone would take it out on them. But I can imagine growing up and hating your own name. I sympathize because I hate my first and middle name equally.
I can understand Nuke, but what do you have against The?
It’s got no Russian translation
Well, we found the Donald Hitler.
Why do you hate your first name?
It's just an ugly name, too ethnic for my liking too. Nobody ever pronounces it properly, or I'm constantly correcting or spelling out my name. It's a pain in the ass. My middle name has the exact same issue.
I just wish I had a neutral and easy name if not a cool one. I made it a point to give my kid a good name because of it. I was named after parent's relatives who I never knew. I just hate my name.
