Rubes by Leigh Rubin for April 10, 2012

So the son takes the fall for the counsellor’s bad pun. Actually the mass suicide of Lemmings is a myth created by Disney in their 1958 movie Wild Wilderness when they herded them over a cliff for dramatic footage.

Mom: I don’t care what the other kids are doing.I supposed if Tommy went and jumped off a cliff you’d jump off one.

Rehash? That’s like they stuff they scrape out of the bottom of a bong, right?

I take Lemmings and their feelings very seriously. I wouldn’t jump to conclusions that it’s all been rehashed before because that would involve deja vu. Speaking of deja vu did you hear the truth about Lemmings?

Just what lemmings say as they fall!

If you’re on Spring Break in Alcapolco and everyone else is diving off the cliffs, should you join in?

I thought lemmings came from the Arctic regions. Anyway, they have great counselors.

Lemming learns late.
