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
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) 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

What the fuck kind of shallow-brained adolescent nonsense is this?

Average Lemmy posting. It used to be a lot better

"Used to be". Dude, you've been here less than a year.

You're new to the internet I see.

I almost always tenderize my meats; I have not once taken a shit so massive that it need to be sawed in half.

You have a point. Honestly, we don't actually have a poop knife either, we just use the pointy end of the plunger.

Who the fuck that actually cooks doesn't have a kitchen hammer?

Like, at the very least you have a meat tenderizer, though those are for pussies. Real cooks grab a nice 3 or 4 pound sledge. I use a kobalt with a well padded handle, myself. Also handy for food critics.

You want a fucking paillard you can cut with a fork? Sledge that fucker. Ideally after brining.

Who said anything about a meat tenderizer? Kitchen hammer is what you smack the butcher knife with when separating frozen meat, totally different tool.

Same hammer! You get a good sledge, and there's no end to what you can whack. Everything becomes a nail, in essence.

If you tenderize the meat before you eat it you shouldn't have to tenderize it after it comes back out.

Who said anything about a meat tenderizer? I said kitchen hammer, distinctly different tool. You know, the thing you smack the butcher knife with when separating frozen meat.

I see we equip our kitchens a little differently, that's okay though. Just make sure to keep your kitchen tools and your restroom tools in their separate environments at all times. ๐Ÿ‘

Are you assuming I have a poop hammer?
