I can hear an Ice Cream truck coming from blocks away and it’s instantly recognizable.

Why aren’t there Taco Trucks cruising around the neighborhood with an instantly recognizable sound and menu? All the grownups would come running outside waving to the Taco Truck.

The Taco Truck was invented in 1974 so it’s been 50 years now. I’ve known the sound of the Ice Cream Truck since I was like 3 years old, but I barely even know where the Taco Truck is. You’ve got to follow them around on social media…

They discontinued the Choco Taco?! Those were great! I knew I’d had a hard time finding it lately but that was my go-to from an ice cream truck!

  Yup. Made the news and night show talk shows and everything… just not enough to actually bring it back. :(

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: 1

Rules

All posts must be showerthoughts
The entire showerthought must be in the title
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
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
