The "HEY! The Forum is Dead" Thread

If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at the enemy, throw one of those small pumpkins. Maybe it'll make everyone think how stupid war is, and while they are thinking, you can throw a real grenade at them.

I hope life isn't a big joke, because I don't get it.

The next time I have meat and mashed potatoes, I think I'll put a very large blob of potatoes on my plate with just a little piece of meat. And if someone asks me why I didn't get more meat, I'll just say, "Oh, you mean this?" and pull out a big piece of meat from inside the blob of potatoes, where I've hidden it. Good magic trick, huh?

 

A funny thing to do is, if you're out hiking and your friend gets bitten by a poisonous snake, tell him you're going to go for help, then go about ten feet and pretend that *you* got bit by a snake. Then start an argument with him about who's going to go get help. A lot of guys will start crying. That's why it makes you feel good when you tell them it was just a joke.

Yeah,means they are :wacko:!!!

Spam luncheon meat is a canned precooked meat product made by the Hormel Foods Corporation. The labeled ingredients in the Classic variety of Spam are: chopped pork shoulder meat with ham meat added, salt, water, sugar, and sodium nitrite. It has gained a peculiar infamy as a mystery meat, along with something of a place in pop culture, and has even entered into folklore and urban legend.

 

Other varieties of Spam include Spam Less Sodium, Spam Garlic, Spam and Cheese, Spam with Bacon (Hormel bacon), Spam Spread, Spam Lite (containing pork and chicken), Spam Golden Honey Grail, Spam Hot and Spicy (with Tabasco sauce), Spam Hickory Smoked, and Spam Oven Roasted Turkey - the latter is a halal food, meaning that it is allowed under Islamic law, and is especially popular in Muslim markets.

 

Spam is produced in (among other places) Austin, Minnesota, USA (also known as Spam Town USA). In 2002, the six billionth can of Spam was sold.

 

In the 1930s, the product, whose original name was far less memorable (Hormel Spiced Ham), began to lose market share. The name was chosen from multiple entries in a naming contest. A Hormel official once stated that the original meaning of the name Spam was "Shoulder of Pork and hAM". According to writer Marguerite Patten in Spam – The Cookbook, the name was suggested by Kenneth Daigneau, an actor and the brother of a Hormel vice president. At one time, the official explanation may have been that the name was a syllabic abbreviation of "SPiced hAM", but on their official website, Hormel denies this and states that "SPAM is just that. SPAM." The fact that the originator was given a $100 prize for coming up with the name, however, still appears on the site's SPAM FAQs. [3]

 

Many jocular backronyms have been devised, such as "Something Posing As Meat."[4] "Special Purpose Army Meat" has been suggested as another apocryphal backronym referring to the product's WWII roots.

 

According to Hormel's trademark guidelines, Spam should be spelled with all capital letters and treated as an adjective, as in the phrase SPAM luncheon meat. As with many other trademarks, such as Xerox or Kleenex, people often refer to similar meat products as "spam". Regardless, in practice, "Spam" is generally spelled and used as a proper noun.

I want Spam

Spam looks tasty. I want some as well :P

nah it,s disgusting!! :sick:

Spam is OK. If you're starving, haven't eaten in days, and like salty ham-like substances. It keeps for years/decades/centuries, and was concocted to keep millitary grunts alive; especially if they needed lots of salt. We had some once - hey, maybe there's still a rectangular can of it here somewhere..:) It's cheap, and people used to stock lots and lots of it in their cellars in case of a tornado, Soviet A-bombs going off unexpectedly, or for some really bad coctail parties:laugh3:.

Enjoy in Moderation. Do not operate heavy machinery after consuming more than 1 ounce per hour!

Oh,yet even more spam...:dozey:

I have this nostalgic urge to try and find some, just to say I have some! The picture on the label made it look appetizing at least, even if it was more like a blob of pork head-cheese. :hair:

And now, a word from the oil burner.. KaChung.... Whirrrr... RRrRRRrrrrrRRrrRRRrrrRRrrRRRrrrrttTTttTttTttWhirrrrrrrr.

Hmm.. I must put an end to that machines miserable existence, and switch to renewables.. One vote less for Cheney, one vote more for Liberty!
