I'm sure most of us know the idea behind "Shower Thoughts". If you don't, you just share thoughts, observations and ideas you have that you find a little weird or interesting.
For example, it's weird we have different names for countries and cities based on the speakers language. Why don't we all call Germany "Deutschland" or Bankok "Krung Thep", for example? Seems it would make sense if we all called places their actual names and not what we randomly decided it was called in English centuries ago.

Does anyone else feel oddly protective of fictional animals? I can mow down thousands of humans in GTA and not care but I will swerve out the way of a cat or dog like it actually existed. One time I accidently hurt a dog in game and felt awful.
Same with tv and movies. I watched a thing with lots of humans getting k*ll*d and mamed and it was fine. There was a scene where a puppy was k*ll*d without warning and I wanted to cry. I wonder why this is.
