      But the contention is about music being better, and that’s some bad music.

        Did we read the same post?

        Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it

        I guess your comment makes sense if you find those two attractive.

        Like I get the boomer joke of music these days sucks but my comment was leaning into joke.

          Your comment makes sense in the frame of “ugly people are allowed to make music,” my comment refers to the “music was better” part of the post.

          The ugly people you mentioned don’t support your comment’s argument against the original assertion because their music is terrible, not “better.”

          Some music sucked in the boomer’s days, made by ugly and pretty people alike.

            He’s simply disputing the assertion that ugly people aren’t allowed to make music.

      Adele isn’t that good looking as well, but she is well loved as a singer.

        You’ve got some warped standards for beauty.

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.
