One of my favorite subreddits is r/Showerthoughts.
My parents’ generation likely called Shower Thoughts something like “Mary Jane Brain”.
They’re the same thing: random thoughts that hit while you are alone with your brain.
Check out the variety they can have:
Dogs don’t really like chasing and returning balls, they just think their humans love throwing stuff.
It’s nearly impossible to multitask while brushing your teeth.
In old western movies, when the horse stands on its hind legs, it technically counts as a wheelie.
Long into the future, Earth will be the legendary place from which humans originated.
I’m sure you are now ready to head to the shower and create your own Shower Thoughts! So, here are some questions to help you out.
Have you ever introduced yourself to the people you lived with growing up?
Is a hot dog a sandwich?
Besides your face, which body part of yours could you pick out from a lineup of others?
What is the last new thing you tried?
If a clone of you shows up, how would you prove you are the real one?
Teen you shows up and asks how you’re doing, what do you tell them?
Are there more doors or wheels in the world?
Thought exercises don’t have to make sense or have an epic purpose. They can just be fun!
Enjoy playing with your mind.
