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

It's hardly a trickle either.

Shit, even at a trickle pace...

If I somehow got one single penny from every person on the planet, I'd have about $80,000,000...

Do you have a penny to spare for the cause?.. 😂

you know what's funny? you still wouldn't be close to the rich rich people

I know right..

That's a great idea to lift everyone out of poverty! If we all gave each other a penny we'd all be rich.

I caught myself mid laugh before realizing the reality of that statement.
