Did you know that the term 'spamming' came from the monty python sketch? Ill copy something I read a while ago:

"The word spam was used in this Monty Python sketch involving a couple in a shop attempting to order a meal. All items in the shop come with spam. During the entire sketch a group of vikings starts singing the refrain "Spam, spam, spam, spam...lovely spam...wonderful spam". The song gets progressively louder during the sketch.

The term spam made the jump to the electronic world through chatroom spam. In the early 1980's in People Link chatrooms it developed as a way to see off unwanted members from a forum of friends having a conversation. When a new member tried to hijack the conversation, the existing members of the room would begin typing the lines from the Monty Python sketch referred to above. The remaining members would sit back and laugh, or get a drink, but offer no further comment until the unwanted member left. being 'spammed out of a room' quickly made the jump to other online mediums, most notably MUDS where any unwanted communication was referred to as spamming and the first rules against SPAM were developed as early as 1981 'No Spamming Public Channels'.

Today, spam is used in almost every area to describe unwanted and annoying messages."

I'll bet you some spam it's true.

Not true, spamming is by people with nothing important to say. I have plenty important to say, I just don't necessarily do it Wink
