Watching the ever popular giant snail racing on sltv today and happened to spot a spectator wearing a superb Polar Bear avvy...

I would love to get that avvy myself .

Were you that POLAR BEAR ? Do you know who it was or who makes the avvy?

I havent found it on xstreet yet so if anyone has any ideas please let me know before the pressure become unBEARable

Extrovirtual makes polar bear avatars, in a couple of sizes... might have been one of theirs.

Not knowing what the ava looks like ... I'd lay a bet on Gendels having a good one.

This thread reminds me of one of those Missed Connections things on Craigslist.

Exactly... "I saw you on the northbound red line train last Tuesday night around 10:30 pm. You were a polar bear wearing a red scarf and glasses. I didn't even stop to wonder how a polar bear got on the train, I was so captivated; maybe we can meet for coffee?"

Mentos ? Are they the American equivalent of Fox's Glaciers mints (whose logo is a polar bear) ?

Have polar bears advertised these candies ? (Do you call 'em mints in the U.S. or are they still clased as candies ?)

As Argent so capably pointed out with that link, the Mentos connection is the chemical reaction that occurs when you drop the Mentos into Diet Coke or other carbonated drinks, they're not actually connected to polar bears in any way.

I still don't think I'd want to feed a polar bear Cokes and Mentos.

Some people seemed to find the suggestion hilarious.

So the people who offered the polar bear Cokes and Mentos, were subtly playing out a James Bond scene?

"Do you really expect me to talk?"

"No, Mr. Polar Bear, I expect you to die!"

They look very huggable. I wouldn't, because it'd rip my face off, but they do look huggable.
