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-----

I get it, it's hard to form sentences with proper words when all these curse words are so easy to use anywhere and anytime. Especially when you have to use difficult, intelligent or educated words like "Are you actually serious?" or "skibidi people". I know it's challenging for people like you, but I implore you to try "clean sardonicism".

Give it try, but beware, people might stop thinking you're an asshole.

(Ps, just playing along here, but this did trigger me. I do loath those people who just blatantly go around insulting everyone they disagree with online)

Absolutely. Well played, I think that's a great example of the self-referential bullshit feedback loop of sardonic behavior. No actual trigger intended.
