when replying, the yellow brick road was actually made of rectangular
spamcakes.

But isn't all Spam rectangular? Or does it lose its shape after being
unleashed?

Spamcake comes in many shapes and sizes. In its natural state spamcake has no
definite shape. It is found in the wild and is usually a blobby puce-colored
invertebrate inhabiting trees only to drop onto some poor unsuspecting soul
that happens by, a lot like a Rocky Mountain tick. Most remaining specimens
inhabit the rainforests of South America, but a newly-discovered sub-species
has recently been seen in Madagascar.

Domestic spamcake, grown and harvested by salesmen in Los Angeles and
even in subterranean bays underneath Madison Ave, is often cut into more
recognized shapes, such as jeeps, barbies, cross-trainer shoes, etc.

Spamcake traits have been dramatically improved over the years due to tighter
inbreeding. For instance, aggression has been amplified so that the former
dropping reflex has now been modified into jumping. Some smaller specimens
hit their targets from 5 feet away up to 10% of the time. This is very good
for spamcake considering its slow metabolism in digesting a target, so it can
wait awhile between meals. Larger ones (about the size of a billboard) can
leap up to a mile, but this size of cake is *extremely* rare in the wild.

Domesticated spamcake however, once unleashed, will soon die if neglected, as
its dependence upon humans grows to be psychological as well as physical. In
order for it to be considered "healthy", it needs human contact for at least
5% of its waking hours, usually about an hour everyday.

when replying, time now for Bowling for Spamcake!
