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.

Remember when the body washes contained literal micro plastics and were advertised as such? (sh.itjust.works)

Somebody somewhere figured out that you can sell grit to women if you refer to it as "exfoliant." Because that terrycloth towel you're going to dry yourself with isn't nearly rough enough to remove dead skin cells, right girls?

Meanwhile washing a man is mostly a matter of degreasing which is why a man's shower has one bottle of mostly sodium laurel sulfate in it labeled "everything wash."
