A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

We’re lemmings.
We are legion
I despise that term and refuse to use it
Lemmings is just the best name for us. It's so anti-corporate, you can rest assured not a single PR team would ever greenlight it in the history of PR teams. We don't need a PR team to approve our nickname, we don't want a PR team to approve our nickname, we don't want to have anything to do with whatever a PR team wants.
In case anyone was unsure, lemmings don't even jump off cliffs, that was literally just Disney staff throwing lemmings off cliffs like a bunch of psychopaths.
Lemme lend my fellow lemmings some lemons.
NO! I said months ago I hate this. I still hate this.
So what's your preferred alternative?
I think lemurs like the op said is better. However, I also think the ship has probably already sailed and lemmings is what it is.
Lemminators
You’re better fall in line and jump off this cliff with the rest of us.
Your comment was so applicable to any of my comments that I assumed you were replying to the one where I said I wasn't going to start wearing pants at work.
Less talking. More dropping trou.
I’m the little dude who lays 3 stairs and then goes boldly forward.
I am F12!
I‘m the one with that rope. A Lemmnja.
I’m the diggy diggy hole lemming
We solved this like a year ago! Though I had completely forgotten what it actually was.
