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-----

Elder waitresses should be called something else, like waitrons or waitriarchs.

hey are you a fellow human? yeah cool grab me a glass of water please uhh i don't work here

We are hiring a fellow human for low wages but you might get great tips what do i need to do? youll be a servant to rude dirtbags. can i call myself a waitress instead please? No our culture requires official titles to be fellow human for all staff and patrons and you will all go by the name Sam

Yeah, but if I start shouting that in a restaurant I'm going to get everyone's attention instead of the old lady responsible for my meal.
