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.

I live in Ireland and was fairly slow to adapt to this cashless mularkey but my mind was blown when visiting Germany how many places were cash only.
In Canada, many people pay with their phones and smart watches.
Wallets are essentially buy-x-items-get-one-free punch card holders these days.
Cash only is common in New York City as well but not so much anywhere else I've been in the US.
