Back in like 2005 or 2006, I remember posting an article to Fark about a company that wanted to make a laptop that had the entire internet cached on it so you could browse the web offline. That was almost 20 years ago and I remember saying “they have seriously underestimated the amount of porn on the internet.”

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

  • All posts must be showerthoughts
  • The entire showerthought must be in the title
  • Posts must be original/unique
  • Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
  • Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct
