Lemmings

I fully embrace the lemmings thing lol. Definitely an afterthought, but someone remarked about how redditors always think they're especially unique freethinkers, and call everyone else "mindless drones", when they go along 100% with US foreign policy.

We might as well embrace lemmings here as an ironic joke (especially because lemmings don't actually walk off cliffs, that's anti-lemming propaganda).

Me, personally, would only do that if I were pushed by a Disney producer. (true story)

I hope lemmings sticks. It's cure. It pokes fun at ourselves. It's great.

As a kid of the 90s who grew up playing a wonderful video game of the same name. I fully endorse Lemmings =)

My fave. Self-deprecating and fits the name well.
