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

The Joker seems to have some ability as a chemical engineer, a strategist, and a manager of goons of various different abilities. He's better at any of those than he is as a comedian, though — which is what he's mad about.

Not just a manager of goons, but a manipulator of people in general. He is one of the few that can even predict and manipulate Batman's behavior sometimes. Which is not easy.

Those aren't super powers though. But his condition protects him from Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth because he can never be sure of it...

Sam Morril is the reason the joker went out for blood, man.
