Usually, silicone nippled showerheads aren't replaced or cleaned regularly.

    Should they?
    I would expect them to be somewhat self-cleaning when in regular use.

    Also: Bonus point because Iiteral shower thought.

        The “gunk” is just mineral deposits, right?

            I just rub the nipples when I’m standing in the shower. I know, phrasing.

            I have no words how jealous I am. My shower head looks nothing like that after the first day. I almost have to do a deep clean the entire shower cabin to keep the limescale off.

              Soak that shit in a ziplock full of vinegar, hold it in place with an elastic band and profit with a shiny clean shower head.

            The one before was 5+ years old when its hose broke.
            Did not look great but still ok in the end.
            Might just be limescale?

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.
