Traditionally yes. But that hasn't been the case since, like, the 40's or 50's when soda fountains became huge. Even most modern root beer like A&W, Mug, and Barqs aren't technically root beer, in the traditional sense. It might be different regionally, but here where I am if you go to a store and see ginger ale and ginger beer both being sold, they aren't the same thing.

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.
