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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Growing up in southern California. Disneyland was common, and so common that I ended up working there. It's changed a lot in the last twenty years.
I still go to Disneyland regularly, but it's always because I know someone that can still get me and my family in. I'm fortunate that I haven't paid to go to Disneyland in over 16 years, and I've been hundreds of times. Now, I typically get disappointed when I'm there. I've seen the parks go downhill and the prices go way, way up.
I've been to Sea World growing up, since it was a two hour drive. And Lego Land. And Six Flags.
It's not the parks that are spoiled, it's the flights and hotels that make these things wild trips for spoiled kids.
