Showerthoughts

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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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
- Posts must be original/unique
- 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.

It's not needing to go for haircuts where the real money savings are.
I bought a wireless hair clipper in February of 2020 for $50 on Amazon. Every few weeks I go out in my back yard and buzz it all off in about 5 minutes. I'm definately happy.
I'm using my electric shaver to trim my own hair (it came with a facial hair trimmer, and I may have stretched the boundaries of my face slightly)
This is the way.
$20 clippers from the mart of walls. Buzz it all down to an even fuzz every two weeks.
No shit, I need to get in on the shaved head deal. The guy who's been cutting my hair since I was a teenager now charges $80 for a haircut and beard trim. Like man, I'm blue collar, I can't afford that shit!
Bro what? Just go somewhere cheaper. They're like $20 normally
$80?! Even places being premium seem to be about $50 from my experience. I guess I haven't been to one of those in a few years, so inflation may have bumped it up.
