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

No. Bugs can get fucked.
I teach my kids not to kill bugs unless they are doing something bad or dangerous, otherwise just move them.
Killing things should not be a default action for convenience sake.
Live with roaches once. You'll change your mind.
Tbf, roaches I feel would be covered under his "bad or dangerous" clause.
I've picked up wolf spiders before, but if there is a black widow inside I'll smash it. Can't risk them harming me or the ones I look after.
I'm no expert in bug identification. More legs = worse
Idk man, a lot of sea bugs have more leg and I want them in my mouth.
That's because salt and enough real competition for them to evolve meat!
Yeah, roaches get squished.
Existing too close to me with that many legs is a crime.
Spiders eat mosquitoes and centipedes eat roaches, you do barely any work all day and contribute nothing back to society. Which one deserves being squished?
The other day my coworkers and I made literally 5 million wrappers for dum dum suckers in 2 hours. Suck it.
You eat Twinkies and your mom eats you. Which deserves to be squished?
Had just clicked away from this post when I saw you comment. I need you to know that I came back just to ensure I upvoted your post (or whatever we call those here).
Had just clicked away and had to come back to let you know we call those pointless here.
(protip: if something is actually worth fake internet points give it a boost instead or as well)
A boost? I'm not familiar with what that is. That's not a Lemmy thing is it?
it's a fediverse thing. think of it like a re-tweet.
I sometimes forget Lemmy is a totally different place. Gave you a boost, let me know if it does anything there.
Including ladybugs?
No, they're ok unless there's way too many and even then I dont super mine them.

Point proven.
Y'all think you're above the ick while you're going around trying to drag people down.
Cmon now, don't really need to roleplay here
I'm glad someone got it. 🤣
Oh you're a zoomer. That explains it.
Nope. You seem to like deciding things about people. Try playing your own character. Ohhh right, your character is shit. I bet it's got an edgy backstory too.
Oh you're older? And you act that way? That's worse.
What way? Using the word "ick" seems to have triggered you. Maybe you mean the bug squishing? If they come too close, they are my problem, not yours. Live with roaches once. You'll change your mind.
By you maybe
