The red algal blooms look pretty but I'm sure that has messed with their ecosystems (since they've already messed up their cooling systems). They seem to have avoided that trouble by choosing to stay near a forest ranger's cabin that's taken over by a grizzly bear when the ranger leaves for the colder months. It's nowhere near the ice. If their show is any indication, they subsist almost entirely on chocolate spread and various junk foods. Like corn puffs that cause them to swell into bouncing balls when they eat one and take a sip of soda. In effect, they've traded one source of trouble for another. That grizzly can be grumpy when he's trying to take a nap and they're bouncing all around that cabin.
Psalam Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Lemming, I have been playing and enjoying Tyrant99's new mod SexLab Pheromones. And after being accosted by canines, bears and even rabbits it occurred to me that I was not being chased by lemmings. Of course, says I to myself, there are no lemmings in Skyrim. There are all sorts of other creatures from trolls to falmer and dragons, there are mods that introduce goblins, house cats and other beasties (including, as you've previously mentioned, jackalopes). Given what you've just been telling me about the natural habitat of lemmings it seems that Skyrim should be crawling with them. After all, there are no air conditioning units there with which to injure themselves. I know it's something of a philosophical quagmire but why are there still no lemmings (present company excluded of course) in Skyrim?

I think it's because Howard and Hines are species-ist against lemmings. Or they just didn't care enough to add us to the game. Either way, I'm kind of glad they didn't. Look at the low-res treatments other critters got! If they had rendered us in such lousy ways...well, if you've ever seen Critters 2, imagine that giant ball of krites. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agt3Dc1xPYM And I can't figure out why that clip isn't embedding.
Psalam Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 S'alright. I just highlighted it and it gave me the option to watch the video - it certainly makes your point. Still, I would think that Mihail (just to mention one) could probably do your species justice.

Grey Cloud Posted November 4, 2018 Posted November 4, 2018 Then there is the corollary to that. A woman always has the last word in an argument. Anything a man says after that is the start of a new argument. Men should take heart from something I was told many years ago: women are alright but you can't beat the real thing. I've had some great teachers. ?

Commendable! For my simplyfied approach it might suffice. But back to @Ernest Lemmingway's original thesis Quote If a man is all alone somewhere with no women around for miles and he has an opinion, is he still wrong? I think we also need a same-cell condition to be checked. Perhaps something like GetInSameCell() ? ? ... but forgive me my inaptitude in the Papyrus-style, a different function might be much better suited

Ernest Lemmingway Posted December 18, 2018 Author Posted December 18, 2018 The lemming has a question. Has anyone else ever had a dream that they were just some CGI created by the twisted minds of a pair of French-Canadians? Or worse, a hand puppet brought to life by some sad, lonely loser living in his parents' basement? Who may or may not be one of those French-Canadians?

How can the second option be worse than than the first when the first contains two French-Canadians and the second only one? I suppose where the loser puts his hand could count for more than another French-Canadian. To answer your question, no, or indeed non. I do however agree with U.G. Krishnamurti that we are just the thought of a thought.

Or, more classically, Descartes' evil demon (but he was French, not French Canadian).
Ernest Lemmingway Posted January 22, 2019 Author Posted January 22, 2019 The lemming has a request. Given what's happened to me lately, and my complete and utter lack of skill or patience with paint programs, I would appreciate it if anyone could take my pixel-composed mug and turn it pink. So folks can see how silly I look in that color! Not the color of my flesh; my skin tone is more of a salmon shade. But my fur when I can't get any blueberries...oh, that is another matter altogether!
Guest Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 Lemming. Post the picture you have in any suitable format. I will turn it pink. You can also add a Pantone or RGB color to suit your preferred pink color.
Ernest Lemmingway Posted January 22, 2019 Author Posted January 22, 2019 The closest thing I give you to the specific shade I'm turning is the color code #cc3366. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go watch the great cat whose fur color I now share. I knew I should have stocked up on blueberries but oh, no! I didn't want to throw out those fat-bellied stogie sucker steaks I still had left over! Now I'm just as pink-bellied as they are. ?

Then again I am a cartoon so there's an element of solidarity there, too.

Ernest Lemmingway Posted February 12, 2019 Author Posted February 12, 2019 I've been getting poked, prodded, and even a few offers for probing (I'm not into butt stuff, giving or receiving, thank you) about the relative lack of silliness in my Musings. My answer about that is I have no answer. Lately I just haven't been feeling silly. I'm watching cartoons like Looney Tunes, Pink Panther, Tom and Jerry, and even my idiot cousins. My funny bone is not being tickled and I don't know why. Even as I write this I've got Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner on and I feel...nothing. No zaniness, no absurdity, not even a mild chuckle at how the very laws of physics thwart poor Wile E.'s attempts at catching that bird. Or that rabbit; I don't even feel silly enough to make fun of my leporiphobia. So, please. All you Burts, Mildreds, Andrews, and Janes, quit asking me about the lack of silliness lately. Besides which, I'm still trying to restore my natural color with a blueberry-rich diet. I feel great when I'm blue, but I feel blue when I'm pink. Imagine how confused I feel now that I'm more of a tie-dyed blue and pink pattern.
Ernest Lemmingway Posted February 17, 2019 Author Posted February 17, 2019 The lemming has a question. Last night Melissa made me watch Night of the Lepus. Is she mad at me?
worik Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 3 hours ago, Ernest Lemmingway said: Is she mad at me? ... maybe her way to get emotionaly bound towards you. ? The logic of female white mice is certainly multileveled, similar to quantum mechanics and probably even using more dimensions that the non-mice brain could ever imagine. If that's the case, I hope you opened your inner soul and engaged into an emotional after-movie discussion/debate about the various aspects of terror ... ... .... .. though ... while I am thinking about it... neither movie nor discussion would leave room for a romantic end of the evening... ?️? She has her period?
