I disagree with your beef. It’s just a message board; nothing important is at steak. Don’t be chicken, just ham it up a little. And when you see a pun coming–duck!

Every time someone says “I don’t believe in sentient meat”, a piece of sentient meat somewhere falls over dead.

Let’s try it -  
It is made from pigs, arseholes.

Well, that’s rude!

I write the spam that makes the Mods’ heads spin.  
I write the spam that makes Dopers log in.  
I write the spam that gets spammers banned  
I write the spam, I write the spam.

Oh, my spam may make you mad  
But is a Rolecks really bad?  
And I spammed for V1AGR@  
So you can groove.  
You can grow a certain body part  
Get a Ph.D. and a fresh start.  
It’s from me, it’s for you; it’s for you and from me–  
And it’s carried via TCP/IP…

My spamshake brings all the boys to the yard,  
And they’re like,  
It’s better than yours,  
Damn right it’s better than yours,  
I can teach you,  
But I have to charge

It was great fun writing it, and thanks for giving me a good start. But _man_! The earworm!
