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.

you can get awful brain poisoning from doing this

i do not understand at all why waxing your mustache is fine but plucking your nose hairs is not!

But the tldr is an infection inside your nose can get into your brain somehow and it's way more likely if you pull the hairs out vs trimming them.

Idk it was 15 years ago and i'm no scientist but the evidence available to me at the time was compelling enough that i quit it!
