Users of Lemmy, would you rather be called a "Lemmyer" or a "Lemon"? Or something else? (sopuli.xyz)

Lemmings?

[–] closure1170@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Definitely lemmings

I won’t complain about Lemmings.

  1. The game was cute.
  2. Lemmings do not commit mass suicide but rather the lemmings that gave rise to this false fact were driven to do so by (ultimately) a CEO looking to create a specific narrative that is at odds with the truth https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/white-wilderness-lemming-suicide/
  3. Lemmings are adorably fierce little bastards. https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/running-ponies/when-lemmings-attack-why-carrying-on-like-a-deranged-squeaky-toy-totally-works/

I’ll abide by the consensus. But I do think β€œlemmings” is a strong contender.

That CEO one fits all of the Reddit refugees very very well Especially those from Apollo

[–] lovedbybacon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

100% behind Lemmings!

[–] ulu_mulu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I too vote for Lemmings, it reminds me of when I was very young playing that game all day :D

[–] PhilL@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

I think Lemmyngs would be cute

[–] kersploosh@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Lemming, Lemster... El Lemarino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.

[–] KickMeElmo@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Lemur works.

Lemmies, please, and let's keep the other Lemmy in our thoughts whenever we say it

[–] aqua_synonym@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Then the catchphrase of Lemmy then will be: Lemmy share my thoughts

[–] thedeserter@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago
