    1. Making it colder?
    2. Making it hotter?

    The debate continues to rage (in our house)

        Ok, if you agree with this opinion, upvote toomanypancakes. If you disagree with them, downvote.

        And afterwards we’ll socially distribute their pancake hoarding problem.

          But what if I disagree with your direction for votes? Now what?

            Then you need to fill out an application form to revise the voting schedule.

              I’m just going to proactively attach the addendum form that turns this into some kind of Schrodinger’s cat voting system.

              Best way to change one’s opinion is to make them fill many forms

      Colder. If you want it hotter that would be turn up the heat.

        I think the confusion stems from some people assuming an implied “turn up [the temperature of] the AC”.

      Are clarifying questions not allowed in your house? The temperature won’t change instantly so the few seconds asking and answering a clarifying question shouldn’t upset anyone.

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.
