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.

I agree with your overall sentiment, but I'm good keeping my ugly knees and hairy legs covered.
Your body, your choice. If you really don't like hair you could shave it. I hope you can learn to love your knees, you've got 'em for the rest of your life.
He can love his knees without thinking they're pretty.
He can love his knees without thinking they are pretty, and without feeling shame for them or concern for what others feel about them.
"Can" of course meaning "conceivably possible" ("one can be both rich and unhappy") and not "easily accomplished" ("one can blink, usually")
Yeah, no. There's no complex or embarrassment here. I really don't give a shit what anyone else thinks about my pale weird legs. It's just personal preference. I've never been much for short pants.
But I absolutely, unironically appreciate your word salad at the end there. Masterful writing.
I mean, I'm totally fine with my knees. They work well, they give me no problems. Pretty? haha, no.
Feel the cool breeze whisper through your knee hair, join us.
