I've seen a lot of shower thoughts, but this thought is the showerest

[-] JargonWagon@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

I was thinking the same thing, but with the word *showeriest

And then forget in 5 minutes cause I was in the shower.

[-] blackluster117@sh.itjust.works 93 points 1 week ago

Then remember immediately the next time you get in the shower. Vicious cycle.

Or just rinse, save some shampoo for tomorrow.

[-] valkyre09@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

I do this with tooth paste.

I’ve started buying two tubes at a time because I can’t be trusted

[-] xorollo@leminal.space 10 points 1 week ago

My husband buys the toothpaste. When mine runs out I take his so that he will always know if the closet stock is empty. If I took one from the closet, and it was the last one then we might be left without. When we get low, it's a game where we are constantly stealing the tube back and forth . I like to think this game helps him remember to get some more.

This is why I set the bottle in the bathroom sink after having this thought. Its hard to ignore something so out of place and in the way

[-] Godnroc@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Toss it over the curtain so that it clatters to a weird spot that is hard to miss.

[-] the_tab_key@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

This is what I do. Works well.

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Then when you go to use the sink you set it aside cause you need to use the sink and it's promptly forgotten again.

[-] four@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago

Hard, but still doable.

This, right here, is the highest quality "Shower Thought" I've ever encountered. You win!

[-] LanguageIsCool@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

What do they win? Hopefully shampoo

[-] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Conditioner!

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago

Took me about 5 seconds to get this.

So....not a LONG time, but I'm still ashamed it wasn't instant.

[-] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 29 points 1 week ago

Then you put the extra bottle you bought away, and realize you really should have checked the cabinet, and now you have 3.

[-] kemsat@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

Thank you for making laugh in the middle of my life loathing rant 😂

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 19 points 1 week ago

I've had the same bottle of shampoo since 2016. It's outlasted my hair.

[-] wabafee@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Shower thoughts in the shower? Hmm...

[-] slampisko@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

This, but every evening a week straight until the bottle is actually empty and then I walk around with greasy hair until I get weird looks from people at the mall, at which point I remember to buy it.

[-] Nangijala@feddit.dk 2 points 1 week ago

It is either that or you go buy shampoo, then put it somewhere in the house where you forget all about it and go buy another and forget all about that one too and then you run out of shampoo and are like "oh fuck, I need to buy shampoo" and you manage to remember and come home with a third bottle and then the others start popping up in weird places over the following days.

I am at the end of one such misadventure. I am almost finished with bottle number two and bottle number three disappeared from the kitchen for weeks and reappeared recently in my couch and I put it in the bedroom so I am reminded of it's existence everyday now. Eventually it will find its way to the bathroom.

Everytime I'm at the store and I pass the shampoo aisle I have to remind myself that Mr couch shampoo is still very much full and very much on its way to the bathroom.

And how many bottles are still in your closet? Because that's always the first thing you should check after thinking that particular thought.

[-] buttnugget@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

There’s a reason trash like this was banned from the reddit one.

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

thanks, you reminded me to buy anal douche.

[-] JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago
[-] underline960@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

In two years, only these two guys thought of buying more shampoo.

Showerthoughts

35781 readers

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:

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.
