No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

(Assuming the shower is running. Any temperature.)

The best I could come up with was a hot soup, but eventually you'll get more water then broth. There has to be a better food out there for those hungry showers!

I can't believe that no one has mentioned the famous shower orange yet. On Reddit there is a whole subreddit dedicated to it.

A cold orange in the shower is perfect – it's refreshing, it smells great and you don't have to deal with the usual mess of eating an orange.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 9 months ago (9 children)

??? The peel is what I'd consider the messy part. Are people just stomping it down the drain?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The visual of someone waffle stomping an orange is top tier. Thank you.

Something hot in an open bowl sounds like the worst food to eat in a shower TBH.

I'd go with something cold in a tube, like an ice pop. Or maybe a beer in one of those fancy insulated tumblers with a closeable lid.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I drink beers out of cans/bottles while showering regularly. The amount of water that gets into the can/bottle is neglible.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

No glass bottles please. We don’t want you to star in any internet videos of horribly disfiguring home accidents, if you slip.

For fast eating challenge try cotton candy

Do this if you have ever wanted to identify with a raccoon.

Cured sausage. It doesn't dissolve or absorb water.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 9 months ago (1 children)

A summer sausage in the shower is one of life's guilty pleasures.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 9 months ago

Perfect pairing with a shower beer

But for safety's sake, please make sure it's into a can. :)

I enjoy eating peaches in the shower Any messy fruit, really, but stone fruits in general.

You can just shamelessly get in there, get that nectar all over your face, and enjoy it. Probably more enjoyable if you have a beard and need to eat carefully.

I no longer drink, so this is like my shower beer now.

I prefer to run a hot bath with a bunch of bouillon cubes. I bring salad and breadsticks in with me for the unlimited experience Olive Garden promises, but refuses to actually provide paying customers.

Mangoes because you can go primal without a care

Mango. Otherwise you just end up with a mess

[–] [email protected] 17 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Crunchwrap supreme. Next question.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

At the worst point of my life I indeed had a shower crunch wrap after a brutal graveyard shift. This is the answer.

A peach. I prefer to eat my oranges segment by segment, so I don’t really find them messy, but a good, ripe peach should be messy as hell.

Does beer qualify as a food?

Most fruit seems to be a good choice IMO. Even veggies may be a decent option. Grapes maybe?

Fruit is generally waterproof, so it's not like it will taste different in the shower.

I think anything with flour is probably a bad choice. Nobody likes soggy bread/cake/whatever.

I'd also consider any kind of cheeses or cured meat. Maybe a nice meat/cheese/fruit assortment?

Can it be a bath instead of a shower?

This is the trashiest boner I have ever had

Tropical fruit, so I can relive my trip to Thailand

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago

There's the classic shower beer, and that's actually really fun. Like others said, be careful & if you want to be extra cautious, aluminum cans only or poured into a stainless steel vessel.

When I was a fat little teen, I somehow heard the idea of eating potato chips in the shower. I tried it & it was oddly satisfying. They were Ruffles. I only did it once or twice total, it would be kind of weird to do all the time.

Shower beers, however....always a good idea.

Everyone saying mango because of that meme but the answer is obviously WATERMELON. It's got water right in the name and is just as messy as mangoes!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago

Vegetables and fruits. You'd wash them first anyway.

BBQ on the bone - I haaate messy meals, so let's set up a table with slaw, taters and a nice rack slathered in sauce, get naked, and turn on the water.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

An orange. Apparently it is a life changing experience according to a group on that other site.
