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
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) 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

Most people just want a good life. If we stopped seeing each other as the enemies the world could be better.

OP says everyone just wants to have a good life, you come in an intentionally antagonize people. It's pretty clear who missed the point.

Yep. And a classic case of someone dishing it out without being able to take it. If someone wants to be an antagonistic jerk, they don't have the right to be shocked Pikachu and pretend to have the moral high ground when their attitude is met in kind.
