I like Lemmings. It’s easy to remember and rolls off the tongue.

[–] mookulator 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Me too. It’s a little pejorative though

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you referring to a definition of it? β€œa person who unthinkingly joins a mass movement, especially a headlong rush to destruction.” Had to search that up to see why it was a bit pejorative.

Yeah, if you aren't aware it comes from a myth about the arctic creatures, lemmings. In 1958, Disney created a nature documentary that included misinformation claiming that lemmings would run in large groups and if one ran off a cliff, the rest would also join them in running off a cliff. This mass suicide was shown on screen. The reality, in fact, was that Disney had intentionally stunned the poor creatures by spinning them around until they were dizzy enough to fall off the cliff.

[–] PillowTalk420 12 points 1 year ago

Careful with that. Cave Johnson's engineers might make us all combustible.

Lemmings πŸ‘

[–] pyrodin 9 points 1 year ago

Definitely Lemmings

[–] Coelacanth 8 points 1 year ago

I think most people have settled on Lemmings, but Lemon can replace the silver award. Here, have one πŸ‹

[–] Seven 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought we agreed on Lemmings/Lemmies

[–] Seven 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Also lemmings jumping off a cliff sounds bad but lemmings jumping off a cliff with parachutes doing sick tricks sound really cool :D Also sounds like a bold action to take too, which may refer to some redditors having to move here and all

[–] PoetSII 7 points 1 year ago

I feel like lemmings is the obvious choice

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I prefer Lemmites, sounds like a mysterious cult

Lemmy-> lemon -> lemony-> snicket ->snicker?

Or a Fed for federated.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Nah, "fedder" should mean "one who uses the fediverse".
