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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

In most of European countries we don’t have an equivalent of AM/PM and we mostly use 24 hours time. If not we have to add “6 of the afternoon”.
Fun fact: can you tell a difference between “midnight in the morning” and “midnight in the evening”? It seems that everyone assumes that midnight is always the end of a day, but 24h clocks never display 24:00. It’s 00:00 to 23:59
I guess I found another shower thought.
