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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

That's what I said.
You said the complete opposite, that it's "spelling not pronunciation"
Yeah because arse just sounds like the British way of saying ass. Meaning it's not the pronunciation that's different it's the spelling. Arse sounds different because it is different.
Think of how the British accent sounds and which parts of the words are usually drawn out. If you didn't know they were too different words they should like every other word pronounced differently in British vs American English
