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-----

When I swim, if I just get out of the pool and dry off, it only takes me a minute to fully dry off.

If I take a poolside outdoor shower to get the chlorine off and then dry off, it takes considerably longer to dry off.

This confuses me - getting fully emersed in water should get make me more soaked.... but the shower seems to get me more soaked....

I often think about this when taking a shower after swimming... the paradox of water
