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

If you'd literally rather waste 5 minutes clicking on traffic lights, than 30 seconds watching a video, that's just an excessive hate for ads.

I'm not saying you have to like them, but spending 4 minutes and 30 seconds just to avoid them, is bordering on an unhealthy phobia.

See?

You have no idea about it because you'd rather be tracked across the net.

If you weren't so abrasive about it, someone probably would have taken the time to explain why you should care. But when you act like that, why would people try to help you?
