    13 … 14 … 15 … 16 … 17 … 18 … 19

    Pretty sure that you’re a teenager for seven years, not five.

      But after 19 teenage pregnancy drops to Zero!

      I wonder how it is in countries that doesn’t have the “teen” in the numbers.

    I’m gonna have to disagree with you here. 18- and 19-year-olds are still teens. say what you will about being adults, but semantically (if nothing else) they are still teens.

      Most human artistic output isn’t about or geared towards dogs tho (sadly).

    The amount of people younger than you is ever growing, and the amount of people older than you is shrinking.

    but also not at once, the youngest are influenced by those older than them, and in tuen influence yet new teens. Its causes an endless shift of culture.

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.
