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

And when the light from Andromeda reaches us in 2.5 million years, you'll all see my shower thought was right.
And in 2.5 million years when the light from your thought reaches the folks in Andromeda, they’ll be like…
“Woah! Star Wars happened right here!”
