    One of the previous owners of my house died in the living room about 5 feet from where I’m sitting right now.

      Doesn’t the smell bother you?

        Only for the first few months.

        Cashing their pension cheques makes up for it.

      Dang. But how is it possible to die in the room that’s designated for living? 🤔

        Talent. And the heart attack probably helped a little.

        They were contrarians, I guess.

        Living room is by the front door so setting up the hospice bed in the large room with the easiest access to the exit makes sense.

          Hospice? Exit door? Not necessary in the Eternal Life™️ schematic.

        Maybe the trick is never entering the living room in the first place. What is dead may never die.

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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.
