I see your point, but no. The shower is great for thinking, but it’s a terrible recording environment.

Even if people weren’t afraid of getting their phone wet, the sound would be a disaster. We tune it out in our own heads, but on video, the noise of water running would be overwhelming and inescapable.

This made me curious if there is a thriving Shower Thoughts niche of porn somewhere? 🤔

BmeBenji,

If there isn’t, Pornhub is missing out on a big revenue stream. “Come for the porn, stay because you can’t believe just how insanely wrong this insanely hot person is and you have to explain to them how wrong they are.” Ragebait and porn all-in-one.

t0lo,

it’s not taboo, it wasn’t in the 90s, it’s algorithms and terms of service dictating cultural norms

Chickenstalker,

People record videos in their cars because it is the quietest place that is readily available. Modern cars have good soundproofing, blocking outside noise and also preventing echoes.

taiyang,

Oh boy, they wouldn’t for a variety of reasons others said, but MAN would my mind and body be in conflict. Like, ok, this is a QAnon rant but they’re hot and ugh, maybe I can just mute? Yeah, mute. Mute and carry on.

Taboo or not, nudity is still nudity, haha.

AdamEatsAss,

It’s never the people you wish it was. Why can’t crazy people be hot?

Why can’t crazy people be hot?

The phrase “don’t stick your dick in crazy” exists because there are plenty of hot people who are also batshit insane.

clearleaf,

You’ll rarely see a crazy person who isn’t hot because if they aren’t hot you won’t see them participating in society.

I’m not hot and I have to participate in society… Or you mean the ugly crazy people don’t participate in society?

clearleaf,

If they’re both ugly and crazy they’ll be pushed as far into the outskirts as possible. When I worked evenings at Walmart I would always see the night shift people come in and they all had some kind of facial deformity and were hard to communicate with. I never see people like that at bars or anything, just working, and only in jobs and shifts nobody else wants.

Ah yes. I know exactly the type. I’m a night owl and sometimes I end up shopping at a 24/7 grocery store in my city at like 3am and that’s exactly when all the creatures come out, too. On top of that this area is also infamous for meth so 90% of them are tweaking out, too.

paddirn,

Pornhub Showerthoughts could be a thing

Coreidan,

I doubt it. They are hiding in their car because they don’t want their family to find out they are nuts.

xeekei,

Is it because of acoustics that they do it?

BmeBenji,

The shower or the car?

I’m convinced people get on their soapbox in their car because it’s the only place people can film themselves without being self conscious about other people listening to them while they do it.

Steve,

I thought it was to create a sense of urgency, like they have somewhere to be but they really can’t wait to spit this truth nugget in your ear

brewbellyblueberry,

And you think if nudity wasn’t a taboo people wouldn’t be self conscious about anything (ie. their bodies)? Especially considering the acoustics in most showers (hint:even the people who normally can’t hear you talk in your home can hear you sing in the shower). Especially considering people are self conscious as hell about their bodies even with clothes on?

A car is a much more private and safe space than a shower.

Not being a dick, just curious what your train of thought here is.

BmeBenji,

Oh, I see your point. I was thinking about how people have a lot of intense arguments in their head in the shower, and if they weren’t afraid to film themselves in the shower, they probably would do so in order to take those thoughts out of their head and put them into the world for discussion.

If they’re self-conscious about their body, as most people are, they probably would still use their cars lol

freebee,

It must exist exist already. What would it be called: only fans where naked girls talk read out loud philosophy in a sexy voice while showering in a non-sexual way

Skua,

I'm imagining an alternative version in which Slavoj Zizek completely ignores the fact that he is in the shower and just continues doing his usual thing

freebee,
AtmaJnana,

Most people also don’t have a phone that could survive a shower intact. Or if they do, it’s not worth finding out. Not sure about everyone else, but I don’t generally risk bringing my expensive phone into the shower just for TikTok rants.

    I’ve got a little shelf on the opposite side of the bath to the shower where my phone sits. I have dual blueooth speakers on either end of the shower.

    When I shower, I also party hard.

    markstos,

    They already have a phone holder in their car pointed at their face.

    Also, the background in car shots is pretty neutral, while the background in your house might be more revealing or distracting.

    Mr_Fish,

    Ah, a shower thought about not-quite-shower thoughts.

    QuandaleDingle,

    Showerthoughtception.

    BmeBenji,

    Is L/carthoughts a thing?
