Showerthoughts

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.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Ok, so less a shower thought and more a "random observation while standing in line to vote" thought, but my mind is about equally checked out in both scenarios, so I'll count it.

Oh, there's a new rule?

I don't think this is a political post, though. OP is not using this post to endorse a candidate or policy.

Alright then rule 1 by OPs own admission

If you take the community summary above the rules to be the definition of a showerthought, and if you count "standing in line" as an everyday activity (since it was during the standing in line, not the voting, when OP had the thought), I'd say it's not breaking rule 1 either.
