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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Honking at someone when the light turns green is no longer rude because he is probably on his phone (lemmy.world)

The only polite way is to lay on the horn non-stop while following them to their destination (so they know you're there), when they stop, get out, approach them as quickly as possible (to be respectful of their time) to thank them for going

This is generally accepted in any situation and is loved by many drivers.
