        So is cheese cake not a cake?

        And cheese danishes not pastries?

        Pizza is a fruit pie.

        Lasagna is a fruit cake.

        Water is lava.

        Crust on top is not the distinguishing feature between pies and tarts. Tarts often have top crusts. The only consistent difference is the angle and sturdiness of the sides - tarts have vertical (or nearly), sturdy sides, pies have angled sides that are less sturdy.

          I think all tarts are pies but not all pies are tarts.

      How about “veggie” lasagna, which I mostly made up of fruits like zucchini and peppers? Grain for the dough? Dehulled nuts. Sounds like a cake to me not completely unlike baclava.

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

  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.
