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-----

I don’t like sports that much but I bet I could sit through a game if there weren’t fucking ads for shit I don’t want everywhere.
Have you tried letting them track everything you do for ~~targeted~~ personalized ads that will absolutely nail what you want? /s
That’s the neat part: They just assume if you’re watching sports you like beer, trucks, and dick pills
Are you really going to sit there and try to tell me that Patrick Mahomes eating wings doesn't make you want to immediately drop what you're doing and go to wing stop!?
They should personalize ads to my bank account balance
I enjoy watching sports but the ads and greed greatly diminish the experience. NFL is probably the worst of the worst.
