I'm not convinced... I don't think that polar bears could use an electric razor because of a lack of dexterous fine motor skills, huge claws and more importantly, the scarcity of power sockets on ice flows in Antarctica.

Oh, I've just realised that it's not a real polar bear at all! It's computer generated - exactly like the threat of global warming itself which is what this 'joke' is all about.

Now I get it. It's ironic.

^^^ Correction – Antarctica should read Arctic.

Nightmare - “... you have missed another correction... they are ice floes”

Normally, when people pick holes in other people's posts due to grammatical, spelling or linguistic errors, I don't approve. However, in this case I do. I genuinely had no idea that there was a linguistic difference between the word 'flows' and 'floes'.

Every day's a school day. I recently heard that phrase and how true it is.
