          Sometimes, during longer sessions, I involuntarily think of that one old reddit story about a guy who put some hair removal chemical on his testicles then started watching some show while he waited for the chemical to work. Subsequently he got absorbed in the show long enough for the chemical to do its thing and far too much more. (In case you’re not familiar with the anecdote, he had to go to the ER but the member in question was apparently still functional if visually altered after a recovery period.)

          I’ve never used that kind of ointment on my groin or anywhere else. However, sometimes when I start to get absorbed in some media whilst pantsless, my general anxiety makes me double check that I didn’t apply something for the first time ever, then forget about it.

        Four minutes or so 3 times a day would be 12 minutes. Some people go once a day others many. Saying you’re in and out in 4 minutes shows nothing.

        [Sing in the voice of Elmo]

        My boss makes a dollar

        I make a dime

        That is why I poop on company time.

        UK version:

        My supervisor makes a pound.

        I make a pence

        That is why I shit at the companies expense.

          Generally, anything from 3 times a day to once every 3 days is considered the range of normal.

            Could be. Seems every medical institution has different numbers, NHS says 3 times a day to 3 times a week.

            My buddy was going pretty often, little wet, little dry, all over the place, a little gassy. 3-4 times a day for years. Found out he was fructose intolerant. One exclusion diet later and he’s in the one a day club.

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.
