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.

I fail to see how it would cut down on animation costs. It's way easier to make a mouth move these days than to animate the entire body doing pantamime.

But I do see a lack of "silent" cartoons. Tom & Jerry is the only one I think is still going.
