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-----

Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers (lemmy.ml)

I can't believe my sleep addled brain read this as "e-scorts" like it was some new gaming thing.

Careful, some tech bro will take that and get a billion dollars in venture capital for "eScorts: Uber for hookers".

How quickly can you write up a proposal? We can have GPT get us a mockup of the ui by tomorrow and be ready for production by Friday...

Did I say all of that correctly?

Just throw in AI there and we're good!

I like the idea of pronouncing it hook-ai-rs just for the implications on Ubers becoming u-bears.

"U-bears for hook-ai-rs" makes me chuckle. It's just the right amount of churches up.

You know.... That's not a bad idea.

We had call girls back in the 80s and 90s. They were good as long as you had some blow.

Now, I'm not so sure. I guess they are traveling onlyfans blowing through metro cities like tumbleweeds.
