“Across the street someone is playing La Vie En Rose. They do it for the tourists but I'm always surprised at how it moves me. It means seeing life through rose colored glasses. Only in Paris where the light is pink does that song make sense, but I'll have it in my pocket when I get home, and carry it with me where ever I go...” Sabrina (1995)

Lemming
Lemming
noun
1. Small rodent, usually found in or near the Arctic, in tundra biomes. Popular misconception that lemmings commit mass suicide when migrating.
2. 1990s puzzle computer game. Fair amount of mass suicide.
3. Term used on the Vogue forum. To desire something posted by another user. Tends to spark nationwide shortages and mild hysteria (much to the confusion/amusement of retail assistants). For example "I am lemming those Acne boots". No mass suicide but you get the gist.
