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.

Air is a mixture of gases also qualifying as a fluid, so I see the logic here.

A more interesting question would be in the absence of gravity, would you sink in a liquid or remain on the surface? (Surface tension/buoyancy issue)
