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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Not rewinding was a horror trope then.
How unkind to not rewind.
Especially when we had space age tech.
Wait. They made ones that looked like cars? Dammit.
I had one! My dad got it at a flea market, and all my friends thought we were rich. Lmao
Mine looked exactly like that one and I'm in Europe, so it was for sure not a small thing.
