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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Hoarders must have really good room acoustics. (lemmy.world)

yeah, but if it's hoarders - it's EVERYTHING.

Trust me on this. We've tried to intervention some relatives repeatedly, their house is a terrifying example of fire hazards X man-trap stacks of:

national geographics 1910-2007
rare glassware
collectable books
TINS! Tin signs, tin trays, tin toys, tins with sewing shit and tins which held sewing shit in the triassic
radium! ?!?!?!??!?!? specifically clocks that are known to have been painted with radium that no longer glow, but apparently the glow - came from the overpaint, and the radium is still chugging. no shit.
newspapers, specifically, about easily tens of thousands of the dallas morning news 1990-1998 (!?)
multiple stacks of other newspapers (old stuff) one of them paid to purchase.
multiple layers of unopened ebay and amazon orders in the fucking boxes
CREEPY FUCKING DOLLS A ROOM ENTIRELY FUCKING FULL OF CREEPY PORCELAIN FUCKING DOLLS I swear, their eyes just swiveled to look in my direction from 12 states away.....

I can't even begin to fucking deal with this shit from across the country, and their relations in-town have so far failed to get through to them.

I'd say the acoustics would be pretty fucking bad.
