Canals in the UK are 3 to 4 ft deep. Why didn't she just stand up?

    My theory is that OP is the killer and is quite mad all the media and the police is claiming the death was an accident.

    You need to go fall into a canal right now. Get a good taste for how it actually is falling face first into a muddy canal.

      I’d assume the same as falling fast first into a pool (happened to me once, was embarrassing in front of my mates, but I stood up.) Just with more dirty clothes/skin.

        That section she fell into is quite deep. It also has enough algae and dockweed to look like grass and be extremely slippery. And she couldn’t swim. So even if she didn’t hit her head, or get trapped or choked by weeds, the fact that she drowned isn’t suspicious in itself.

    Pretty sure drunk people have drowned in puddles before so I don’t know how this is a big scandal. We should not have to install a giant fence around the water because some dipshit drowned, rest in peace of course.

      drunk

      Oh is that what “bubbly and outgoing” means?

      Sorry that sounds a bit mean. But the sister is obviously riding a wave of sympathy right now. I mean what’s she gonna do, put a fence around all of Britain?

        I don’t know, occam’s razor and all that. I mean it’s always a tragedy when someone dies, but no one wants to be the person who ruined everyone else’s fun post mortem so just let’s chill.

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.

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.
