When SPAM got spammed...

Who would've imagined many decades ago that the little blue and white tin containing a funny smelling meaty thing bearing the label "SPAM" would one day become one of the most popular words in the world and yet refer to something odorless, intangible, and virtual... totally irrelevant to the once superfamous SPAM!

I guess the very first case of something getting spammed was SPAM itself!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the now tragic story of SPAM...
