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.

Oh max comment depth reached, but you're still sore for some more public humiliation? Sure, buddy.
You can't address anything you've said in the thread. I love commenting, because I can talk about the argument I made and how everything I've said has been correct, while you've been fumbling about and now have to avoid literally everything you said because you made stupid mistakes that you're ashamed to admit.
You didn't account for inflation, and just looked at the price of gold while arguing it's value has gone through "exponential" growth? This is hilarious.
You have delusions of not supporting drug cartels when you're "holding bitcoin" (meaning you've probably invested in it after it became popular due to the drug business, but if you had won some from like a esports tournament before it was popular then you wouldnt be supporting drug cartels just by holding on to it, which is why words matter.)
You've also avoided telling me what your native language is. Prolly because it prolly is English and you're just ashamed to admit how stupid you have been. :D
"exponential" indeed.
But hey, I know your ego will force you to come here with some other emoji reply. I've seen it literally thousands of times. I'll keep going as long as you want to. Becuase it's not me you're lying to. It's yourself. You simply cant accept yourself, that you were wrong, you were stupid. It happens. It's nothing to be ashamed of. You learned new things. Accept it an move on.
"Holding" =/= investing
Using =/= holding.
I've asked a few times now, what's your native language? Can't be English, can it?
"Exponential" has a meaning as well. Remember when you told me to check it, and I did, and then you still stomped your foot about how Bitcoin didn't have exponential growth in value, or if it did, then gold did as well, then you proceeded to prove yourself wrong? Remember that?
Well, that all happened after I linked you proof of how there's trillions in value being used by the drug trade. This means that if you invest in that market, it's value will grow, and the people who already have the largest market portion and are holding the most, experience the most profit. And those people, like I've proved a dozen times, are criminals.
But you can't address any of that.
🥱
Oh wee got to the point where you've just completely shut down and are just having such a tantrum you won't even inputting words, but have to spam smileys.
"Yawn", like some kid told me earlier.
"Holding" =/= investing
Using =/= holding.

Just keep shaming yourself publicly, because you can't stand behind your words, you fumble make embarrassing mistakes, prove yourself wrong with your own data. It's ridiculous.
Let's see how you're gonna continue this tantrum.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone put so much effort into shadowboxing to defend such a boring take.
🥱
Like I've said all along, you know you're wrong, and you're just unable to admit it. I've seen this tantrum literally thousands of times online.
What you should do is take the L and slink away, but you wont.
You'll keep replying out of some weird obsession, despite being very clearly wrong about a bunch of things, which I'm gonna list once more.
I proved my claim that supporting Bitcoin indirectly supports drug cartels, (with data from Europol among other sources). You couldn't accept it. You started having this tantrum, which I've been being entertained by for days.
You said Bitcoin hasn't had exponential growth, and then thought that gold did, and then linked data proving yourself wrong.
How much more can you shame yourself man? Just take the L, bow and next time don't talk about shit you don't understand the basics of. :D
🥱
Edit because max comment depth reached:
Okay, the irony of this one actually made me snort audibly.
snort
Exactly as I called it.
More pathetic avoidance, because you're still trying to "win" a debate you yourself proved yourself wrong in.
It's hilarious.
You need less physical gold today to buy a house than in 1901. Yet you cry "go look at the definition of the word 'exponential'". I genuinely can't make up stuff this hilarious. And you keep giving me more.
So, I have proved and sourced my claim and all you can do is spam immature garbage. Does it make you feel like a winner? ;>
