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.

"In the early 21st century, there was a genre of art where hands were drawn either with an incorrect number of fingers or other mutations. We believe this style of art was used for ritual purposes. Strangely, this movement of art lasted a very short period of time, from 2023 before gradually disappearing by around 2025"

EDIT for those who didn't get it, it's because some newer image generators draw better hands

They must not fix this. I was happily second screening a fall themed YouTube music channel and my wife walked past and went "oh that AI whacked one" I go "nah" it's just normal Rockwell inspired". We wait a couple of seconds and the very next pic has some well drawn kids and books... Most with 5 fingers and two thumbs per hand and I go dammit they got me.
