    The supposed tendency of lemmings to run blindly off cliffs is greatly exaggerated, too, and based on a ‘documentary’ where they were pushed off one by a human. A tiny group of documentarians abuse some lemmings and ruined their reputation forever.

    tldr I’m proud to be a lemming :) Let’s rejuvenate the reputation of lemmings the animal.

    That said, I did enjoy the old “Lemmings” video game, featuring rather human-shaped lemmings that you had to prevent from falling to their deaths.

      There is a similar game that recently came out called Humanity. It’s missing a lot of the charm of the old Lemmings, but it’s spiritually in the right place.
