Please could we have a "Pom bear, anyone?" smiley?

[StealthPolarBear]

It would be used on awkward or angry threads in an attempt to diffuse the situation.

I've never heard of Pom Bear before this thread, haven't a clue what reference it is to the Macaroni cheese thread as I couldn't be bothered to read it all. Also I thought was for children in need when I noticed it yesterday. I also thought 'popcorn' was an indication that the thread was going to kick off.

Can someone explain? and how I use it. TA

you need an explanation of what smilies to use?surely not

the pom bear thread was funny enough but the collective ah'm weeing maself and competing to see who had biggest piddle puddle was bit ott

I don't have the bear on mine??

Just testing like.

I think it stemmed from here:

Yes apparently this thread (the Campaign for Pombear Emoticon) sprung from the thread that juney linked above. It is well worth a read... coffee / snort / keyboard etc!

Does this still work....

Hooray!

Isn't that what this is: ?

Oops should read whole thread before posting....

I love you Tech
