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:
- 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
- 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
- Posts must be original/unique
- 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.

Depends on where you live. I can get an ounce of weed, 28g for you people with better measurement systems, for $22-50 and I have a large variety of strains to choose from.
Thanks homie, but I had to spend my lunch money on tires and rent. At least beer and cigars are still cheaper than a bottle of water here, so.. 🤷
If your ounce weighs 28g, you got shorted 2g...
I guess for that price it doesn't really matter, but it's about the principle!
1 oz = 28.35 g
Maybe that 1/3 of a gram is shorting someone, but a single ounce is closer to 28g than to 30g.
Oh shit, you're right. My weed-addled brain got "1/8th = 3.5g" mixed up with "1/4 = 7g" and came up with "7.5×4=30"
These things do happen...
