Lemmings are the shit

So the speaker at the lecture tonight is a bit of a lemmings fan. Now, unlike what we like to think about lemmings, they do not run off cliffs. The Disney video below was actually found out to be a fake - they corralled the lemmings and forced the poor little guys off the cliff.



Anyways, lemmings are the rodents that control the Arctic. The presenter was going on about how these "little chaps" get "chewed on by everything" and then proceeded to list what they get chewed on by - basically, they're at the bottom of the on-land food chain up there. They are apparently also pretty nasty even if they look really cute, I mean really cute...like REALLY cute. He also told us that the Lemming Mantra (and I'm paraphrasing that part) is "go eat your neighbours kids" (that part is a direct quote). How Darwinian of them. After all it is all about...

survival

And if that doesn't amuse you, check out the sweatshirt on the dude who sat in front of me. One word - AWE-SOME.
