Why do we call ourselves lemmings when lemmons is such a better name?
I'm a lemmon you're a lemmon we're all lemmons.
I'm a lemmon you're a lemmon we're all lemmons.
andyMFK, Unpopular opinion, but having a name for someone who uses Lemmy is pretty cringe. under what context could you possibly use it and not sound like an idiot? At a party are you asking someone if they are a lemming/lemmon? They’re gonna look at you like wtf are you talking about.
It has big “the narwhal bacons at midnight” vibes
Protoknuckles, It helps with posts a bit. Being able to say "fellow lemmings..." or "as a lemming..." I wouldn't use it in real life though.
afraid_of_zombies2, Somethings are too old the moment they occur to you.
Kara, I agree with this, most social medias don't have these kinds of names for general people, sure people who make Youtube videos are Youtubers, but people who watch youtube videos are not Youtubites or something. We can just be Lemmy users, or Kbin users
WhiteTiger, Redditor is a thing though, and most people came from reddit. However, thinking about it, Youtuber and Tiktoker are reserved for the creators, not the users. As for the rest...

Yeah I'm fine with fediverse user.
Ataraxia, Or anthropomorphic chestnut.
neonfire, Ich bin ein kbiner
BarbecueCowboy, I've always been a fan of Lemmonites.
unfnknblvbl, Honestly, 'Kilmisters' was right there
Dufurson, You shall not take the name of God in vain, heathen \m/
afraid_of_zombies2, because a meetup would be a lemmon party.
AbsurdityAccelerator, If you don't know what lemon party is, don't google it.
TellumSiege, "Can't have a Lemon party without old Dick."
FuglyDuck, I knew a lawyer-lady who was, technically, a “Miss Lemmon”.
She really hated my shitty Hercule Perot accent.
Can’t really blame her on that. Fortunately I only cracked the joke once.
giacomo, I like fediots.
banksymimosa, Lemmon, it's Wednesday.
Malisu19997, We call ourselves lemmings? That's new information to me, though I guess it would make sense. Lemons is better though.
Ataraxia, I'm sure it's supposed to be lemurs, but really it's lemmongs.
Ataraxia, No wait... lemmites. Sorry.
queermunist, But then what does /c/ mean?
If we're lemmings, then these are /c/liffs
Machefi, /c/itrusses, duh
queermunist, ... okay that's pretty good
I'll be a lemming and run off /c/liffs, but you lemmons can post on /c/itrusses if you want lol
FuglyDuck, (edited ) That’s a myth. Well. The suicide part. It was started because the normal lemming run wasn’t “dramatic” enough, and in any case, Lemmings don’t really run on cue, so Disney caught a bunch of lemmings and threw them over the cliff using a turntable for a white Wilderness (Like you know those spinning fertilizer or salt spreaders? It was like that. But with lemmings.)
Normally, lemmings make short hops to get down safely.
(Though for the record that was a really fun video game.)
axtualdave, Good god, Lemmon.
Restaldt, Mind if i google myself in your office?
axtualdave, Of course, go ahead!
TheInsane42, When I have to pick between a cute furry rodent or a sour fruit... I know what I'd pick.
When life throws you a lemon, you hurl it back as fast as you can and cuddle a lemming.
nicman24, since we are more than lemmy users lets just call ourselfs the feds
joejoejoe, Motorheads
JohnSmith, Road crew
Niello, Imo, Lemmons make about as much sense as callling Kbin users Kbabs.
Vengefu1Tuna, You say that as if it's a bad thing. Kbab is a fantastic name!
