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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

The anime you saw (which I was unfamiliar with) was based on a "real" thing- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Titor

Tbf, Stein's Gate grabbed a LOT of real world shannanigans to weave into their Science Fantasy plot
