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?

Most irritating

I refuse to even learn how to use the emoticon, let alone actually use one

I thought the thread was funny, but not THAT fucking funny.

I mean, we didn't get a fishy fanny emoticon after the 'is that you, UCM' thread, and that was far funnier.

Plus, I have been asking for a TWAT emotiocn for donkey's years.

A twat emoticon (symbol: a goldfish) would be far better (and less twee) than a bleeding pom bear.

Bear Bear Bear Bear Bear Bear Bear Bear Bear Bear Bear Bear

Ahh that's better!

FrameyMcFrame · 19/11/2010 17:24

Can we have a daftpunk emoticon?

PhishFoodAddiction · 19/11/2010 17:25

Nickel I noticed your Bear verse, was brilliant!

DanceInTheDark · 19/11/2010 17:30

It's shit. End of.

Whatever the reason that 3.9% of mumsnetters wanted it was. It's still utterly stupid.

I think some of you lot got lost on the way to netmums Hmm

Psammead · 19/11/2010 17:51

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

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

SuePurblybiltByElves · 19/11/2010 18:02

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

BaroqueAroundTheClock · 19/11/2010 18:20

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 Biscuit

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???)

redrobin · 19/11/2010 18:23

danceinthedark, you are a woman of sense

JenniferJoJam · 19/11/2010 18:23

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

DanceInTheDark · 19/11/2010 19:10

The biscuit is crap too actually.

Tidey · 19/11/2010 19:18

If we're really really honest, the Bear 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?

plusonemore · 19/11/2010 19:30

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

MistsAndMellow · 19/11/2010 19:34

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

MisSalLaneous · 19/11/2010 19:44

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

CrazyPlateLady · 19/11/2010 19:51

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