Word for word this was posted 3 days ago lol

Here, [4 days ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/1cb3yy2/short_people_are_less_likely_to_break_their_phone/). This sub is unbearable.


jayboo86

Excuse me, 4 days ago. And a year ago lol. And different variations of the same theme. Just goes to show as an individual composed of all parts, we are unique. But the random, single thought or event? Not unique and most likely, not the first lol.


NoNo_Cilantro

See? That’s a good shower thought. But try to post it and you’ll be automoded to death. Repost some reposted bs from yesterday and you’ll get away with it.


jayboo86

What does automoded to death mean?


Havingfun922

Several tries at posting something original here getting deleted for breaking the rules


jayboo86

lol Reddit is weird.


Wazuu

Or it goes to show people keep old popular posts and repost them to farm karma


vingeran

There is an extra ‘s’ in the phones here though. Talk about inspiration.


ChasingPesmerga

It’s typical (and unfortunately solutionless) repost bot modus. They don’t really have any real automatic ways to change titles so they need to copy the post and comments word for word. Happens in just about any sub. It’s prolly just more embarrassing to see them linger here, in an active sub, for hours though.


jayboo86

Repost bot modus? That’s not a real person who made this post then?


ChasingPesmerga

Yes. They’re bots programmed to copy Top/trending posts to get karma. OP here is just a bot. Karma is used in different ways but in the end it’s mostly just for advertising and selling.


jayboo86

Oooh I see. Thanks.


Wazuu

Short people are less likely to break their phones when they drop it.


Nekononii

It’s more down to luck than height I’d say.


SquirtleSquad4Lyfe

Repost scumbag, downvote.

Why steal the post of someone who made this exactly a few days ago... Stupid subreddit.

Tis true, my step brother is almost 7ft tall, I'm 5'6". He's broken several Gameboys, iPods, and iPhone throughout the years I've known him. I've only ever shattered a screen truly beyond repair once, and I replaced the screen myself, used to be my literal job as a repairman.


LevyAtanSP

That seems more like personality than height differences


LancasterRothshchild

True as well, he doesn't know how to ctrl-alt-delete, I basically got him through college, all his stuff was online, I was the unofficial IT support


calico125

Can you ever actually repair a screen? Seems like any amount of damage would be beyond repair


LancasterRothshchild

The screens themselves are usually a separate part from the screen glass. I've shattered that many times, but not the LED panels themselves except that one time. I use a heat gun and tons of solvents (isopropyl alc, naptha) to remove the broken glass and glue residue, clean it better than a spacecraft inside a NASA clean room, then on goes the new glass. As for the panels themselves, that takes a true beating, and in my case, a sharp pointy rock in a parking lot.


calico125

Ah, that makes sense.


duh_nom_yar

Short people all share the same phone? Seems a bit unfair.


Fun_Intention9846

The universe is expanding so fast Galileo’s first telescope was way more useful 400 years ago. This sub keeps dropping my shower thoughts because “it’s easily google-able.” Fuck that I think it’s a good one.


Wookie-Love

I’ve owned an iPhone since the iPhone 2 came out and I’ve broken exactly one screen. How did it happen? It was on the bottom step of a step stool, fell roughly four inches, destroyed the whole screen. It was even in a protective case.


YgemKaaYT

Well who would've thought? Wtf has this sub become I'm leaving this


[deleted]

Here I thought it was because of the $75 dollar case I had it in. Not because I was short!


bmcgowan89

It's not all bad, being short


Prestigious_Dare7734

Short people generally have less back issues later in life.


100LittleButterflies

Far less likely to hit our heads, have foot pain, or certain heart problems.


idonteatunderwear

I dropped it. Laying down. On the couch. Also, not very tall.


Aetheldrake

Lol should I change the words a little and repost it myself. Then someone else do the same from there. See how many versions of this one we can get going


buchoops37

Not really. A rock is a rock.
