    Except Michael Jordan was the Michael Jordan of basketball and quit to become the Michael Jordan of baseball. So that also could happen to you at your current job.

    I’m pretty sure he worked really hard for a really long time to become the Michael Jordan of basketball. He didn’t just make a free throw on a whim and then become probably the most famous player of all time

        Aren’t shoes the underest wear of them all? You’re not wearing anything under the shoes. It’s just ground down there.

      I would settle for the Labron James of Space Jam if that is on the table.

        A hundred bucks. Cuddling is an extra hundred.

          How much for just the cuddling? That’s what I’m really missing, I can do the handy myself.

    Apparently he was actually pretty good at baseball but there was no minor league facility that could accommodate his fandom. So he had to retire before he could really train to compete at that level.

      .202 in AA isn’t great, compared to other players who are good enough to move up

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. 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.
