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.

Posts would describe bizarre situations people have found themselves in, and commenters would take a stab at what put them there.

There’s a lot of potential here.

lemmy_check: crowdsourced fact-checking

lemmy_see: spot to compare pics of arbitrary stuff (lemmy see your favorite mug)

lemmy_know: ad-hoc polls, recommendations or requests for how-tos (lemmy know how you season your mac and cheese)

lemmy_tell_ya: rants about whatever

Lemmy_at_him

Roasting community?

Lemmy_at_them, to have a wider scope.

Lemmy_at_em rolls off the tongue better, imo.

Shorter too, which is always good for a community name. You win!

I was searching for something that. Cool! I think the old Scrappy Doo character came to mind first!

can i make these, since technically these are your ideas, i am definitely interested in lemmy_check. I believe lemmy_know is very close to c/ask

If your answers are going to be video links, most people won't be interested
