    In English, my lips touch when I make the “f” sound at the start of four. I am also pretty sure they touch for one.

      Nope, for me my bottom teeth touch my upper lips.

        The F sound is usually a labialdental fricative in English. So you are putting your bottom lip on your teeth and letting some air go by to make the F sound.

        English has bilabial plosives where you touch both lips together and let air stop for a moment which makes the P or B sounds.

        English doesn’t have a bilabial fricative so you might be doing this in your dialect and it doesn’t stand out to anyone because it doesn’t otherwise have a phonetic meaning. But, interestingly, in other languages a bilabial fricative has distinct meaning from a labial dental fricative. I believe I’ve read that in Japanese the “F” in “Mount Fuji” is actually a bilabial fricative and not the normal F that English speakers use.

          I meant to say upper teeth to bottom lip, not the other way around.

        I cover my bottom teeth with my bottom lip at the start so the lips touch on ‘four’

      I’m not sure about this. The only way I can make my lips touch when saying that number is if I actually say pour.

        Thought the same, but you’re right, putting both lips together makes a plosive.

    I love this! It doesn’t seem like it could possibly be true, but my 30 seconds of testing haven’t debunked it.

          Wise man once said.

          Another thought to disturb restful slumber, especially if you are vain: in a mirror you can kiss yourself only on the lips.

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
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  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.
