Showerthoughts

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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
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.

By the time you knock a hole in the wall with your own body, you're gonna be a bloody pulp.
They're referring to Doctor Who, a fictional "time lord" who used many theoretical lifetimes to bash a hole in an impenetrable wall, dying many times over (not a big issue for him), if I recall correctly.
That must have been the old Doctor Who, because I don't remember seeing an episode like that.
But that's a very Doctor Who style plot line lol
In fact it was "Heaven Sent" Peter Capaldi. Series 9, episode 11. 28 November 2015.
Ah, that would explain it. I checked out once Capaldi joined.
He really grew on me over time.
I'm rewatching it again, this time with my girlfriend because she hasn't seen it yet. We're currently 3/4 of the way through Matt Smith's doctor.
So maybe this time he will grow on me.
Excellent. Enjoy.
