Lemming Fever

Just when you're feeling down and blue, Second Life has a way of pulling you back up.


I host on a Wednesday night and I was feeling particulary down and miserable. I went along determined to put a smile on my face, and make the best of it. People started to arrive, and immediately the atmosphere was set. The first topic of converstaion was - er - sex aids. Lette started it all off and soon the puns were flowing.


From there we went to Lemmings. Thorn has a new idea for his Saturday trivia, where he pays the person who gets the answer wrong, but who everybody copies. This is called a lemming. I innocently said the I wanted to get a lemming, and then the puns started flowing.

Well then we had puns all round

Thornton Writer: <--- waiting for a history question on the Battle of Lemmingrad

Thornton Writer: when life hands you a lemming, make lemmingade

Lou Netizen: The Taming of the Lemming
Pro Core: 007 nlicence to jump off cliffs

Lette Ponnier: coriolemming

Karmel Kips: alas poor lemming, i followed him well

Mark007 Bloobury: i come her today to praise the lemming not to throw him off a cliff

Maelstrom Janus: invented by sir alexander lemming




This is why I love Double Standards - once they start - they just don't stop. It's not the first time they've had me giggling while I've been hosting, and it's what makes it all worth while. They hadn't finished yet though.

I then wondered why Cinna and Devin were wandering around. I soon found out when Luci pointed out they were on stage. I must be the only person to host with 2 boogying, lifesize lemmings on stage with them

Second Life can bring us down - but it can also raise us back up again. Thanks to all of you for making this such a fun night, and for making smart ass trivia what it is.
