    Hard disagree, the nipple would be the cornea.

    If your iris is secreting milk, or a milk like liquid, you should probably go to the doctor.

      My irises have leaked as much milk as my nipples so that checks out.

    Except that way fewer people enjoy having them licked.

        Many moons ago, I’ve read a translation of a Japanese short story, which stipulated that a pastime among Japanese youth is having one person reportedly lick an eyeball of another, whereupon the recipient begins experiencing special effects, iirc described as seeing diamonds in the sky.

        As an aficionado of various psychologically surreal shit, I’d be glad to find this story again, but the chances are slim. It might’ve been written by Kobo Abe, as I discovered his work at about the same time and space, but I have doubts about that.

        Wasn’t there a scene in Aeon Flux similar to this?

          There’s the “alien” that wants to swap eyes with Aeon but she’s not into it, and Trevor later does.

      The nipple is the aperture of the breast

        So in that sense the pupil is thr nipple of the eye, because that is the aperture. Perfect logic.

    Hold that thought and go see an ophthalmologist before you act on it.

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.
