Same thing I thought / Same thing that I thought

[Codinome Shlomo]

Hello

Is it possible to change the word order in "I thought the same thing"? What would it look like?

I thought about "That's the same thing that I thought!", or "That's the same thing I thought!", or ".... as I thought."

What do you guys think? I'm unsure as to which one sounds the most natural.

I think all three are possible.On the principle that simplest is best, I'd use "That's the same thing I thought!" oe ""That's the same thought I had!".

I'm unsure why you want to change the word order, but both your examples are fine. I would say "That's what I thought."
