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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If warranties are for when things break on their own, and insurance is for accidents, then we should have a separate "warranty" for heart attacks vs "insurance" for trama (lemmy.world)

Or we can do away with the whole health insurance system because the premise of insurance is built on "just in case," but everyone inevitably has something go wrong with their body. So if a health insurance company is going to make money, they need to fleece everybody and not pay out as often as possible.

That's part of the warranty. Make it a free lifetime warranty.
