Staged, full of fake talk, and fake smiles to cameras?

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
- 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
- Posts must be original/unique
- 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.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

That, but where it isn't fake (≠ the real world)
If it's the ads I am thinking of, you want middle class conservative retirement communities.
Unless you are a non white, then good luck.
Plot twist, you become the epitome of "has this ever happened to YOU???" while showing people failing to do every day tasks like opening a jar, or chopping an onion. Somehow sets the house on fire instead.
Have you tried buying their products? That should work, right?
I think that's the idea.

My family did the giant ridiculous breakfast once a month or so and it was incredible. We'd all help cook, and we'd expand the dining room table, and then just eat until we passed out in a food coma. Bacon, sausage, endless pancakes and waffles, biscuits and gravy, giant vat of scrambled eggs, toast and butter and jam mmmm
Speak for yourself, I just had two omelettes, three bowls of cereal, a pack of bacon, a dozen pancakes and two gallons of orange juice for breakfast.
That's a great way to check if you're a character in a movie or not. Clearly you are not.
Ah yes, but don't forget to take Capsulin Forte with 450 mg of capsaicin for strong teeth and shiny hair. Now in big package with double the pills and triple the relief.
And that's what people from 2100 will think our lifes are lile, which is bullshit. Thank god we are destroying the world so we won't get to 2100
