[Mathman]

If you want to visit the real Winnie the Pooh and his friends, they are at the childrens's branch of the New York Public Library.

Hey! Where are Owl and Rabbit?

And now Brian is looking more and more like Pooh.

That's mean Meoima - meow! I have to say some of the cuteness of the Pooh is getting a little long in the tooth. Hanyu is a great skater but the Pooh thing and his animae kind of appearance is a bit freaky I am sure to some in the marketing world. Might be okay for the Hello Kitty fans but not going to be great for selling motorcycles, shaving cream lol.

I thought this article would interest some of you.

Winnie the pooh just turned 90 years old!!!!

What does this by the way have to do with skating - although I know because of his fans Hanyu will probably be drawn in still Pooh getting old has little to do with skating.

the pooh goes to many more ice rink than most people on this forum... among all of the "who is going to win" threads, I thought it would be refreshing and interesting.. and perhaps even educating for some figure skating fans to know the origin of Winnie the pooh...

if the moderators think it's out of place, they can move it somewhere else, i have no issue with this.

This thread title is about as good as it gets :clapper:

Oh please, to be called to look like one of the most adorable icons for children isn't offensive

That's okay, instead of selling motorcycles or shaving cream he can sell chocolate, gum, video games, pillows, and my personal favorite Amino Vital. He can even promote blood donation .

Why would he sell shaving creams???? He doesn't even have facial hair to begin with. :dance2:

Anyway, Happy Birthday Pooh!

And as Kurt Browning said, "Don't forget Winnie the Pooh, he's always there too!".

Well, somebody has to sell those Hello Kitty motorcycles, too

well... i guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder... but when I did see Brian Orser, and the pooh box.. I thought Brian was incredibly gorgeous... those eyes... OMG

And now Brian is looking more and more like Pooh.

And I think Brian is looking cuter and cuter, just like Pooh.

Yuzu could promote feminine products and their sales would probably increase. When you're a rockstar like he is, people will buy whatever he's selling.

Alia, any idea what his net worth is? I've heard he's worth a fortune but I've never seen any actual numbers.

The camera just loves him. That commercial with him hugging those pillows -- absolutely brilliant. I need new pillows and those are the ones I want now!

When I checked this thread, before I opened it I initially thought it is a campaign to ban pooh from the sideboards ha ha ha

:eeking:

You know this is not so far-fetched looooooolllllll.. how come no one ever thought of this about his recent costume before

Heard some gossips but nothing reported. Let's just say I would be a bit surprised if he is not already a millionaire by now.

fair enough but just FYI :

Comparing a middle aged gay man to a bear is not a road I would suggest anyone takes. Labeling LGBTQ people on appearance is not cool.

And I think Brian is looking cuter and cuter, just like Pooh.

What? saying some people as cute as Pooh bear isn't cool? Pooh is cute and loved by millions of people, how can anyone find it offensive.
