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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

What sad, depraved lives Americans live
It's not like we can't buy kettles if we want. I just have no use for one.
What sad, depraved lives Americans live
I own an electric kettle and I boil my water in the microwave!
(Watch this brit go insane over microwaved water.)
Sorry, I'm having trouble formulating a response with my entirely blown mind.
Scum, sub-human scum.
Besides the kettle is only for hot chocolate! You fill it up, put swissmiss in it and turn it on!
wtf? You bought a kettle for swiss miss. Heresy! Only tea should go in kettles, everybody knows that.
Got it, I'll try putting Arnold Palmer half & half in it next time.
