The Brits had an anthem ready for when Margaret Thatcher died. Americans should also be prepared.

      It would be HILARIOUS if a military band did that instead of playing Hail to the Chief. He gets off Air Force One and you just hear Fum fum fu fuuum, DUUUUURG.

        I’m not so sure. Get a few dozen full honey trucks that have been roasting in the sun for a few weeks, and have ‘em unload on him. That seems like a fitting purpose for sewage.

            I’m not trying to be nice about the death of the fascist, and mar-a-fucko’s already a steaming pile of shit, so there wouldn’t be much difference by dumping on him there.

    Currently, that Tom Petty song with the lyric about “the waiting is the hardest part” seems appropriate.

    Words that rhyme with Trump: chump, grump, slump, bump, rump, lump, hump, Gump, dump, frump(y), pump, thump, clump, stump…

    For Don: gone, pawn, prawn, fong, jong, con, QAnon, Mastadon…

    There’s some pretty inspiring stuff to work with here for sure.

    You worthless bitch

    You fickle shit

    You will spit on me

    You will make me spit

    And when the Judas howl, arise

    And like the Jesus Jews, you epitomize

    I’ll still be here as strong as you

    And I’ll walk away in spite of you -bauhaus (Crowds)

    We can adapt one of theirs, how about “Tamp the dirt down” by Elvis Costello?

    We’d be a little late to the party, think she’s been dead for a while.

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.
