If many were given the option to order a Stupid Cat or a Smart Cat, the vast majority would pick the Stupid Cat despite Stupid being bad.

    Didn’t you just post a question asking about this and everyone answered either neutrally or with the smart cat?

      Yup, just read the other post. No one picked stupid cat. Really weird behavior OP.

      Edit: also, reading the reponses here, people don’t care or pick smart cat. Just like in the other post…

          Can you, kindly, fuck off to facebook!? And ‘conduct’ your polls there and stop polluting here.

          Whoever the “we” part are you! Ewww … smells like corporate …

          Or even better : why don’t you go fucking ask your magnificent AI. I’ve heard they can replace a human now. Eeh? Right? /s

    Depends what the cat is for. If it’s indoor companion, then stupid cat. If it’s mouse hunter or travel cat - smart cat

    No, they wouldn’t. Nobody wants their cat to die through being dumb.

      I think cats might actually die more from being smart, i.e adventurous, and straying to places where no cat has ventured before

    I mean, would you want a cat that tries to reverse engineer your thumbs?

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.
