Transcript:
Pig: Hey, Lenny the Lemming... I notice you have over 3,000 profile photos of yourself on Facebook. Do you really need that many?
Lenny: People will love my reaction to that.
Cool !! Just realised that “Lenny the Lemming” is a lemming for a good reason. He could have been a “Sid the squirrel” or “Manny the Mongoose” but no he has to be a lemming.That is because he continuously posts stupid selfies, for no apparent reason, to FB etc and that is what lemmings do
Since the demise of The Far Side it has been more and more difficult to find decent greeting cards. The “Pearls” characters and their attitudes would, I suggest, be great fodder for a line of greeting cards. If Stephan reads these comments I hope he will consider creating it. I’m sure its come up before so its likely “re-consider”.
like the comedy bit about how we have progressed as seen through popular magazines, once we had “life”. then there was “people”. then came “self”.that’s what we’re left with. just self
Wow! 3001 photos of Lenny the Lemming! Kinda like a Facebook version of the Trouble with Tribbles: “they all look alike to me.” (Does that make me a lemmingphobe?)
