    Holy shit. First time seeing someone who also thinks this. 😮

    That’s why I don’t like cucumber but I love pickles. What if I pickled the rhind of a watermelon… 🤔

        Yep, I have a friend who pickles watermelon rind. It’s delicious. I mean, it tastes like pickles and the texture is similar to cucumbers.

      My family pickles watermelons, for generations. They are delicious.

      Right? I do like cucumbers though because I’m committing to that flavor and it’s still watery and refreshing. But when it happens at the end of enjoying a sweet juicy watermelon, it’s not great.

      Go one step further: pickle the whole watermelon like Hungarians do.

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:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

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
  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.
