The myth of lemming mass suicide is long-standing and has been popularized by a number of factors. The 1958 Disney film White Wilderness won an Academy Award for Documentary Feature, in which footage was shown that seems to show the mass suicide of lemmings. A Canadian Broadcasting Corporation documentary, Cruel Camera, found that the lemmings used for White Wilderness were flown from Hudson Bay to Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where they did not jump off the cliff, but in fact were launched off the cliff using a turntable.

:D

I warned them to unionize, but they didn't listen.

from the always 100% accurate wikipedia

"On occasion, and particularly in the case of the Norway lemmings in Scandinavia, large migrating groups will reach a cliff overlooking the ocean. They will stop until the urge to press on causes them to jump off the cliff and start swimming, sometimes to exhaustion and death. Lemmings are also often pushed into the sea as more and more lemmings arrive at the shore"

The very last shot reminds me of an almost-finished bowl of Kix (original, not Berry Berry).

I disagree, asshole.
It looks more like dirty Rice Krispies.
And you're a dick for thinking otherwise.

I hate you.

What kind of person even knows what "dirty rice krispies" are or look like? Learn how to do some dishes and stop using cambodian breast milk on your breakfast cereal.

I also have it on good sources that you're a hippy.

charmlessman
Whatever. I saw your mom at Woodstock, dirtbaby.
I know what dirty rice krispies look like because your mom eats them in the morning.

YakooMarkTwo
Without getting into the implications of you being with my mother in the morning, I'd say you just shot yourself in the foot there.

Boosh.

charmlessman
Well, um.... DAMN IT!! That was weird, huh?
She is my aunt, after all.

Uh Wonko, did you watch the video? Your quote is almost verbatim from the video. Also this video gets a 3 and +1 for not trying to argue for "group selection."

"wherever barriers block their passage they tend to crowd in increasing numbers until a sort of panic reaction drives them over the obstacles"
hmmm...I always thought it took a left mouse click to make that happen

These little Lemmings aren't just migrating. They're going to Valhalla.
