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

I worked at a pizza buffet back in high school. There was a guy who would come in from time to time and eat 6 whole pizzas. He would wait for us to put a fresh pepperoni out then just dump the entire thing on his plate.

RIP whoever had to clean the bathroom between his trips to the buffet

I do that every time I eat pizza. One extra large... with sides!

Amazement and terror increases depending on which hole they use.

Why? It doesn't seem terrifying or amazing to me. Maybe an eyebrow raise.

I can eat multiple loaves of bread and multiple tens of oranges in the same time i can eat a large pizza

I dont think the pizza is the best benchmark for human eating

You should check out sam o'nellas video on Tartare. Dude couldn't stop eating, food or not

I sometimes have a normal Pizza, Double Burger, Chili Cheese Nuggets, croquettes and Ben&Jerries.

One word: Mindestbestellwert. (Minimum order value)

My little brother in HS was a bottomless pit. He played sports and went to the gym for extracurricular activities he was downing at LEAST 6000 calories a day. It was a wonder to watch. Kept our fridge empty while he lived with us.

Those are the guys who get fat after high school. They drop the "calories out" thing, still eat like a race horse, wonder what happened.

If you compressed a 14” pizza into a ball it would probably be about the size of your head, so you should not eat one.

It's me. I'm some human.

I usually do it over the course of 3 days

I'd call it cowmaxxing if it actually led to me putting on any weight 🤷‍♀️
