That's not a shower thought, that's shower research
That's the miracle of waterproof phones
True, it kind of turned into that.
You need to get this reviewed by a company of peers all of whom also need to do this in their showers
This shower thought belongs in a museum!
In WWE in the early 2010s, there was a mexican wrestler named "Alberto Del Rio" which, if translated, would be "Albert of the river"
One day I started thinking about just how stupid that is. This guy is traveling the country in those days, going to NBA size arenas, and little 5 year old white kids are yelling at him in his native language "OF THE RIVER!!! OF THE RIVER!!!!". Not because the kids are being racist. The kids don't even know it means that. They're yelling it because that's his "name", and his boss is a racist who found it funny.
Then some years pass, find out he beats women, and no longer feel bad for him.
"We named the dog Indiana!"

Henry Jones Sr.
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Meaning: "son of John"
So "Indiana Jones" can be translated as "River, son of John".
River...John...John the Baptist.
Indiana Jones was able to ride the sub because he was granted water powers by God as part of his quest to find the Ark!
Indiana Jones was named after the dog – George Lucas’s or the Jones’s depending on if you want to go canon or not.
That means there's yet another layer! Assuming the dog was named after the state.
His name has layers. Like an onion.

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 most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
