      If my gramma had wheels, she’d be a bicycle.

                    That reminds me of a Dutch saying: ‘You have to learn it on an old bicycle’.

                    Y’know, if it had ham in it, it’s closer to a British carbonara

                          So clearly Lasagna is a fruit cake.

                                  And there you go! Lasagna is now officially a tomato cake.

                                      I thought about that too but I think the Mozz disqualifies it sadly.

                                          So is cheese cake not a cake?

                                          And cheese danishes not pastries?

                                          Pizza is a fruit pie.

                                                      I would be interested in a mozzarella cheesecake. Like a soufflé but less egg?

                                                  There are some people in the Midwest who like to put a slice of cheddar on top of their pie.

It’s usually made for all sorts of celebrations from birthdays to funerals. People describe these things as delicious, so even if you think it’s a cursed concept, you should probably give it a taste it if you ever can. And that cream-thing is not mayo, it’s usually sourcream or some mix of it

The only consistent difference is the angle and sturdiness of the sides - tarts have vertical (or nearly), sturdy sides, pies have angled sides that are less sturdy.

Grain for the dough? Dehulled nuts. Sounds like a cake to me not completely unlike baclava.

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

                                                                                                                                        Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

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.

                                                                                                                                        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.
