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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

But fun fact, genetically female babies develop all their egg cells while still inside the womb, so at some point the egg cell that became you was inside your grandma.
is that some sort of twisted your momma joke?
That or a convoluted “Yo dawg, we heard you like eggs”
You do exist, but your existence is different. Your individuality doesn't exist. You are potential individuality.
Now that's just maddening the unhelpful.
You are the continuation of other cellular organisms' lives.
