Lemmings

An awesome Blink-182 song from Dude Ranch :)

But people are what they wanna be
They're not lemmings to the sea
Maybe it's time you looked at yourself
And stop blaming life on someone else

lem

"Lem" can be used as both a noun or a verb, and is basically used to describe a copycat, or indeed the act of copying. Mostly used in the derogatory sense, it can be used to describe a rip-off, a fake, or even an unintentional coincidence.

The word was coined in the early nineties, and is based on the computer game Lemmings, in which mindless rodents follow each other to their grisly deaths.

Jimmy bought the same shoes as me. He's such a lem.
Hey, that's MY catchphrase! Stop lemming me!
