10 years ago, had you asked me what spam was I would have answered ” a type of meat and a monthy python sketch slagging it off?” We used to get Spam fritters for breakfast on the deep sea ships I used to work on, I think I tasted one once in a fit of madness since then I have not put my hand on a tin or tongue near a slice of the famous product.
Now as I forge my way deeper into the murk of the internet, I find that spam means a lot of extra work removing all the shite e-mails and rubbish ads that get sent to my mailbox and comment box. The spammers sent me ads yesterday for ” a bad credit autoloan” and a “sexy halloween outfit” I tracked the source of the spam to an IP(internet provider)Â in the UK.
The Spam meat people have not let people get away with slagging off their product either, one spoofer recieved the following letter for his trouble.
As you can see from the picture above, Spam have come to terms with Monty Python and have a special tin to celebrate the Python broadway musical “Spamalot”! If you can’t beat them, join them.
Final note; Spam is meat from the Hormel people(note the capital S) spam is unsolicited mail and has no nutrition whatsoever, enough said.Â
