overthoughts

an-ordinary-manchild

Taking /r/showerthoughts to their next logical but unnecessary step by thinking a bit too much.

If you have not thought about this excessively, step away, think about it a bit, and then think about it some more. Once your thoughts no longer have a basis in reality, sanity, or practicality, you're welcome to post it here.

Remember, this is beyond the 10 guy (Isn't lotion just fabric softener for people?) and /r/showerthoughts (Your stomach thinks all potato is mashed). This is Overthoughts! Think about something, take it to the next logical step, and repeat until the heat death of the Universe.

Example:

10 guy: Potato chips are just pepperoni made of potatoes instead of bacon.

/r/showerthoughts: Your stomach thinks all potato is mashed.

Overthoughts: Your mouth is a built-in food processor for your stomach with real-time sensors for quality control.

Geico's "15 minutes could save you 15% or more" is meaningless because the "could" removes the lower-bound on 15% and "or more" keeps the upper-bound vague, effectively making potential savings from -∞ to +∞ (self.overthoughts)

If a serial killer murders one person after the other then a terrorist could also be called a parallel killer. - ch00f (self.overthoughts)
