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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

Even if you weren't working in infinites, I bet the monkeys would eventually figure out that they can hold out for more banannas if we want them to keep typing.

The average person in this situation though I'd have less faith in. Instead, they'll rally around their master and beat the other humans for not typing at the same pace as them.

Usually they just end up using whatever motivation you provide to pay for sexual services instead, no?

You'd also have to pay them proper wages too, or they'd go on strike.
