We've all been there — those odd moments of solitude in the shower when we're cut off from the constant distractions of modern life. Without our phones, computers or smart fridges to keep us constantly entertained, we find ourselves turning inward and exploring the depths of our own minds. And before we know it, that introspection leads to beefy, existential questions that make us reconsider the world around us. And who knows, maybe with enough introspection, we'll even find a way to break free from the Matrix!

Luckily the subreddit /r/ShowerThoughts exists to collect all of these epiphanies and we've made a list of our favorites below. So next time you hop into the shower, remember to be careful, because as we all know, the shower can also be a slippery slope towards dangerous territory, like singing off-key or accidentally using soap as shampoo.
