I think people downvoting this didn't spot the sarcasm.

Oh good. This is gonna be just like reddit. Things that are literally decades old.

[-] Scarronline@lemmy.world 76 points 1 year ago

Isn't reddit content just a reflection of people, and people also exist on this platform

You aren't stuck on Reddit. You are the Reddit.

Oh....oh God...

Did you expect people would really change compared to how they acted on Reddit?

Lemmy isn't reddit, but whatever it is, they're both the internet.

[-] number6@feddit.nl 33 points 1 year ago

Be the traffic you want to become.

Ahh, the Lemmy meme.

Nah, I am the main character. The world happens to me, get these NPCs out of my way.

So then what’s happening when I drive and there’s no traffic? Am I nothing???!

[-] Salad_Fries@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Youre never “nothing”… youre always something special! I promise :)

Example: when there is no traffic, youre still a noise & particulate generator that lowers property values, warms our planet, and makes the built environment more hostile/dangerous and depressing for everyone nearby.

[-] scarabic@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Whew thank god. Who cares if I’m ruining everything as long as I exist!

The traffic is stuck in the traffic🚦

[-] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Mix powdered traffic into your traffic.

More traffic per traffic.

mmm yes, the traffic is made out of traffic

[-] Lmaydev@programming.dev 6 points 1 year ago

"I'm stuck in traffic" implies they aren't part of it but that it is something that is happening to them.

You're not stuck in it, you are it.

[-] malloc@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Been working remote since onset of pandemic. Never going back to the office bro. Couldn't pay me enough to share the roads with the rest of the grinders.

So many hours wasted in traffic.

This is a Bill Burr bit.

[-] LegionEris@feddit.nl 7 points 1 year ago

They're not mutually exclusive states. You can be part of the traffic, but if you can't get out, you're still stuck in it. You're part of traffic but not stuck in it if and only if you have the opportunity to exit the traffic experience.

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Now I'm stuck in the damn traffic that I've helped damn create. Dammit!

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 1 year ago

No wonder I hate myself.

Showerthoughts

29816 readers

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
