1. Sewage Potrayed As Meat

2. Who knows?

3. I sure don't

4. Yet again, I don't

5. That anyone who answers "42" should be burned at the stake.

Personally, I like the food Spam. :D

Really, though SPAM is annoying. I've noticed on this forum that many people are very harsh to those who SPAM, but many times the person yelling at them for SPAMMING writes a one line post just to do so. I feel like this is SPAM as well. In fact, the person getting on to them about SPAMMING gets on my nerves more than the person who SPAMMED in the first place. In my opinion, people who SPAM should be ignored, not given more attention.

I like the food Spam too...
SPAM RISOTTO
Anyway, have you actually seen that post war topic? Someone posted about 20 times, just saying the word 'w00tness.' That is the worst spam I've seen so far...

Q:Why would you name useless emails/posts/etc after a meat alternative?
A:Hm, no idea.

Q:Is there a real definition to "spam"?
A: This is what my dictionary says:
Spam, trademark, a canned food product consisting esp. of pork formed into a solid block. (Okay, for real now... :P )
DEFINITION OF SPAM- A disruptive message posted on a computer network. (other defs.) Ref. to a comedy routine on Monty Python's Flying Circus, Brit TV series. (No seriously, that's EXACTLY what my dictionary said....)

Q:Who coined the phrase?
A:*shrugs* Noah Webster? Or maybe not...

Q:How many of you like spam?
A:Not me, I assure you, I can't think of anyone who would like or benefit from spam except the spammer. No wait, the spammer WOULDN'T benefit because he'd be banned....

Q:How many of you like spam (the food)?
A:*shrugs again* Fine with me. I probably wouldn't eat it every day though.

Q:What is the meaning of life?
A:Ooh, ooh! I know this one.......42! Yes! *cheers and dances*

I got an idea! Lets burn Shael at the stake!

Anyone with me?

*Cricket chirps*

Anyone?

The Lady Shael · February 25, 2003, 04:43:52 PM

No, they're all Arthur Dent lovers! *cheers again* Hee hee...

TR Shadow · February 25, 2003, 04:46:16 PM

...I don't get it. Who's Arthur Dent?

The Lady Shael · February 25, 2003, 04:51:10 PM

*gasp* How can you possibly know the meaning of life without knowing who Arthur Dent is? He's from the book "A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", by Douglas Adams. He's the main character really. And they all find out the meaning to life and the answer to all questions is 42! Yay! It's a terrific book...

"Due to a deficiency in my public-duty gland, my doctor says I am excused from saving Universes."

"Arthur pressed the red button. A sign popped up, saying 'Please do not press this button again.' He looked away."

Arthur: "How do you know it's new? Have you got an exotic device for mesauring the age of metal?"
Ford: "No, but there's brochures on the floor"

42
YES!!

Yeah! Ooh, ooh, look at my sig! *points* The quote in blue letters, that's from the series...I'm even making a site just for AHGTTG quotes and excerpts, it's not finished yet, though...

Shadow Giant · February 25, 2003, 09:01:36 PM

sapm is evil. and the cute little blue boxes with the big big words on top are/is (?) your post rank. it depends on how many posts you've made. and my english teacher had AHGTTG but i thought it was a book on astronomy...no really i did. :o so now i'm gonna read it and discuss it with you all!
