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 most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
    • If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

The Joker seems to have some ability as a chemical engineer, a strategist, and a manager of goons of various different abilities. He's better at any of those than he is as a comedian, though — which is what he's mad about.

Not just a manager of goons, but a manipulator of people in general. He is one of the few that can even predict and manipulate Batman's behavior sometimes. Which is not easy.

Those aren't super powers though. But his condition protects him from Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth because he can never be sure of it...

Sam Morril is the reason the joker went out for blood, man.

That's a sick sense of humor.
