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 “lemmings” is a strong contender.

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

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

ChatGPT gave me the following solid options:

Lemmies
Lemmarians
Lemmyites
Lemmists
Lemmizens
Lemmonauts
Lemmyheads
Lemmers
Lemmyans
Lemmyvists

It’s gotta be lemmings right? I do like lemmyheads and lemmonauts though :)

Since I can't avoid thinking of Motörhead when I see the word Lemmy, I would be 100% supportive of "Kilmisters".

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