947Kviews
Deep thinking and deep thoughts, according to some scientists, belong to superior human beings with highly trained brains. Deep thinking is something that encourages the thinker always to question himself, thus leading to new and unexpected answers. We just cannot agree to that, because every one of us experiences an enlightening moment of big ideas going through our morning or evening hygiene routines. Yes, we are talking about the magnificent and brilliant shower thoughts.
Many people have some of their smartest and most creative ideas in the shower, as well as some of their most profound philosophical thoughts. There's even an entire sub-Reddit dedicated to them. Why does this happen? Dopamine, that's why. It's a chemical in your brain that affects your emotions, and it gets triggered when we do things like exercising, listening to music, and taking warm showers. Our brains are also more likely to come up with quick thoughts when we're relaxed, and few places in the house are more relaxing than the shower. See below for some of the funniest, the weirdest, and the deepest shower thoughts we could find.

So I guess that's why they don't have high definition video cameras. Maybe they should also implement high quality cameras that snap still pictures everytime a person comes in front of the cashier.
If my calculator had a history, it would be more embarrassing than my browser history.
Lawyers hope you get sued, doctors hope you get sick, cops hope you're criminal, mechanics hope you have car trouble, but only a thief wishes prosperity for you.

The reason that happens is probably because there wasn't that much technological advancement (at least compared to 100 years ago and now). What's happened between 1916-2016 is far more significant between 1000 years farther along in the past! Just look at the Middle Ages.
