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

If I subscribe to the many worlds theory, every time I buy a lottery ticket one of me wins. (lemmy.world)

Also, everytime you buy a lottery ticket you also don't.

Likely one of the "other" yous won when you decided not to buy a ticket.

So a version of me must win every single lottery, but I will never win any of them if I don't buy a ticket.

Gotcha.
