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.

they're saying "email" is the plural of "email," and saying "emails" is like saying "datas" as the plural of "data," which is weird since "emails" is definitely valid.
