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.

Are the cuts from packaging different then?

Never heard of cardboard cuts.....

Cardboard cuts are absolutely a thing, like a paper cut on steroids.

I used to work in a warehouse and spent most of my day opening, resealing, making, and breaking down boxes. Spend enough time around them and the boxes will get you.

Yeah but does anyone call them that? I'd still call that kind of fine cut a paper cut.

Never heard anyone say "ow I've got a cardboard cut"

I call it "box attack"

We do at my warehouse. They are usually worse than a standard papercut so the distinction does say something
