Biography
Pom Pom (also spelled Pom-Pom) is a Pom from Isle of Pom. Pom Pom, like all Poms, appears to be inflated. He talks by making bubbly noises and can store stuff by absorbing it into his body, suggesting that he's made of some sort of carbonated/gelatinous substance. Pom Pom is a friend of both Homestar Runner and Strong Bad. He is often on his cell phone talking to his many girlfriends and taking karate. He has a dog named Trivia Time and a pretty wicked Pom Pilot. Pom Pom has such an open mind that he has even made friends with such characters as the King of Town and The Poopsmith.

I forgot already. He's probably talking to some fine honey on his celly. {Pom Pom gets out his wallet and shows the camera some pictures of his girlfriends} About to get her phone number. Or maybe he already has it.

Cell: (123) 555-8307
Pager: (718) 555-1059
- Based on the area code for his pager number, Pom Pom has either lived or does business in Brooklyn. 123 is not a real area code, as none (in the United States, at least) begin with the numeral 1.
- Pom Pom's "voice" is the same re-used sound sample of Mike Chapman blowing bubbles into a glass of milk. His is the only voice that is never recorded fresh for every toon (and never has since his first appearance).
- "The Most Mackinest" is a phrase taken from the Beastie Boys' song "Shake Your Rump."
- This is another reference to Homestar's Pants.
