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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

It always puzzles me when people get "too" wrong. To me the additional O feels like it's for emphasis. Hell, tack on a third!

Then why don’t we start writing “threee” or “foooour”?

Maybe seventeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen?

You could have just said we should use Too instead of to because it has two O’s in it also you forgot the word two
