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

In that case, you'd never see anything through anything but a "screen" because of the lens in your eye. (Using the definition of "screen" to be a "barrier", which in this case provokes a transformation, or projection, of light.)
Yes, but I wear glasses so there's an additional "screen". That's all I was saying. It didn't occur to me at the time that we all already have lenses in the eye. So I guess me talking about glasses was redundant. I should have made the same post about those lenses. Fuck it. Live and learn ...
Doesn't matter, it's fun to see how far you can bend definitions (and I did go rather far with that one).
Also, I'm not sure where those down votes are coming from. Showerthoughts don't need to be fully logical, taking all edge cases into account, etc. After all, it's just a showerthought to discuss and joke/awe about.
I'm sorry, but I wasn't downvoting you.
Oh, no no, I was talking about the down votes that you've been receiving. My bad!
