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-----

Me and a friend used to make up insulting rhymes about car brands we saw from the school yard.
I only remember one, this was a long time ago...
This was in Swedish, so I will do my best to translate, but don't expect miracles:
Renault är en bil för två - en sitter i, en skjuter på. | Renault is a car for two - one sits inside, the other pushes.
As for my car preferences, so far I have only had one, I got my license late 2022 at 35, and bought my 2021 Seat Leon PHEV used last summer.
I really like it, sure it isn't the world most luxurious car, and the touch UI is annoying as hell, but it is comfortable, quick enough and as long as you use the PHEV mode it doesn't need a lot of fuel.
I almost got a Mazda 3, but if I remember correctly, there wasn't any within my budget.
Renault is "the car with vulva" in Czech.
I read that most people around the world won't understand that because the lozenge/diamond shape as a symbol for that is somewhat unique to central Europe.
