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

Being conventionally attractive refers to physical appearance, not personality or subculture

I don't believe this for a second. I believe how you dress and behave will directly effect how people perceive how attractive you are.

Convention - General agreement on or acceptance of certain practices or attitudes.

It’s like they taught us in The Breakfast Club: the goth girl needs a popular girl to give her a makeover before the jock will notice her.

Oh, I loved that documentary! Amazing at how many of those people went on to become movie stars.
