To wish everyone would shut the f%&k up about pombears?

[nikki1978]

Seriously. I mean it was mildly amusing but it wasn't THAT funny.

It there anyway of hiding all threads with the word pombear in them?

[spikeycow]

Oh I get it now

[spikeycow]

I don't get it. Someone was offered a crisp at a dinner party and then what?

[JoBettany]

I agree with scottishmummy too. A bit OTT and eventually I was embarrassed by all the gushing and stopped reading.

Have been avoiding pom bear threads ever since!

[MrsBuble]

Surely the bears for children in need and its just a happy coincidence the pombear jokes going around at the same time?

And the original thread was funny, but I have to agree with scottishmummy

[BatsInTheSnowglobe]

yay it worked. just checking!

[BatsInTheSnowglobe]

[scottishmummy]

the thread was funny but all the gushing bit ott

[A1980]

I've never done one of these before:



Sorry! x

[southeastastra]

i agree with op

[disappearhere]

[nickeldonkeyonadustyroad]

I don't like the one, but i do like the one.

both should just be temporary.

[penguin] would be good.
(for christmas)

there was a bunny one on Arpil fool's day (not with brackets though)

[Psammead]

Well I took the time to write out a summary for another poster at 14:07 so read that to catch up.

Damn. It doesn't work for all savory snacks.

[CrazyPlateLady]

The whole penguin set up was better. Can we have a cute little penguin instead?

[MisSalLaneous]

I hate the bear emoticon - watch this space, it will be coloured text and flickering light thingies (technical term) next.

[MistsAndMellow]

I enjoyed it Nickel!

DS is obsessed with the story at the moment.

You do "bear" without the quotation marks but in square brackets as per the other emoticons plusonemore

[plusonemore]

i've obviously missed something (ofsted have been in)
how do you do the bears and whats it all about?

[Tidey]

If we're really really honest, the is just another cliquey thing, isn't it? Some people 'get it' and delight in that fact whilst secretly feeling pleased that they're excluding other people.

Who's UCM by the way?

[DanceInTheDark]

The biscuit is crap too actually.

[JenniferJoJam]

Yes. Very well done OP. Now that you've started yet ANOTHER thread everyone has stopped talking about it

[redrobin]

danceinthedark, you are a woman of sense

[BaroqueAroundTheClock]

I read some of the thread (the original one).

I presume it wasn't the OP that asked for a Pombear


And what about the


didn't that come about because a few MNers thought the whole biscuitgate was bloody hilarious (Even though many others said it made us - MN - look like idiots???)

[SuePurblybiltByElves]

How on earth would you have a fishy fanny emoticon? Actually, do get one, then they'll have to do a vom one too

[Psammead]

Oh. I am relieved about the tipping the velvet thing.

I think we need rid of envy, biscuit and pombear!
