    I encountered Bill Nye on NYE once when I was like 13. He was walking out of a hotel as I was walking in. He looked agitated.

    That’s the whole story.

      If you contract him to work at a new years’ event for your company or group of friends in exchange of money, you’ll receive a Bill Nye NYE bill

    Saw him last year, my sister dragged me to one of his climate change talks. Fairly worthless to anyone except children who don’t know what’s going on yet pretty much. The Q&A section was funny because it was entirely people asking him what they should do about it, and Bill just kinda shrugging with non-answers and irrational optimism. Good talk.

      His target audience has always been children… how could you expect anything else?

    Would they drop the Bill at midnight? Use some sort of maglev or other science, explain how everything should work, then countdown to “Bill Drops Via Science” at Midnight! If there are multple ways, we have 24ish time zones.

    So … instead of Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill!

    It would be Nye, NYE, Nye, NYE, Nye, NYE, Nye, NYE!

    If 2000 didn’t get a party called Fun De Siecle, then you don’t get this.

      I hope a few bars for queer people had “Y2Gay” parties at least.

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.
