An epiphany--something that occurs to you, often deep and profound--that occurs to you while you're in the shower.
Many people, for some reason, do their best thinking in the shower. Maybe it's the quiet, distraction-free environment, or maybe it's the tingling feeling of water rushing over you that stimulates your senses and mind, but some of the best and most creative mind-work is often done at the least-convenient moment (i.e. when shampoo suds are falling into your eyes).
Showerpiphanies are often ephemeral, since (unless you have something waterproof to write with) you can't note them down, and once you get out of the shower and busy with other things, they're easy to forget.

Derek: What was it?
Will: No idea. I forgot it as soon as I got out of the shower.

Will: THAT WAS IT!! That was totally my showerpiphany. Thanks, bro!
Derek: I'll take a 30% royalty for jogging your memory.

Get the Oatmeal Showers mug.It's like that thing you used to do before Coronavirus, but now you only do because:
a) you're meeting the boys
b) someone hasnt text you back
c) you are trying to distract yourself
d) you are scared of getting sick
But now it is between doomscrolling and lockdown showering. I bet that shower is going to take longer than normal and you will schedule 1 hour of the day for it, when it used to take you no longer than 20 minutes. There is nothing else to do because there is no music anymore and no tv shows are being shot.
