Classically “Showerthoughts” were more along the lines of the Philosoraptor meme topics. I even found one that both fits this description and the literal comm name. However, people in this comm tend to take the concept super literally. Incidentally, a trend that seems to pervade most humor these days, too.
I don’t think 90% of the people who post on this comm have any idea how Showerthoughts works.
How does this one go against the community description…?

That may be what reddit said they were, but this is not reddit. Most of the ones that people complain about fit the community description just fine.
