Hemorrhoids, you silly..
Oh wait.. sitting in it, not on it. Oh, well that's different.

Most everything collides with spamcake particles. That's a cheap shot and you
know it.

No. Actually, huge bouts of sparks and showers of flame.

Spamcake particles have a noted behavior of being energy absorbant, that is,
any energy released in a collision that would cause their creation would
instantly be absorbed by the new particle, as well as energy in a radius of
1.6 x 10^18 mm of 1.2 x 10^-3 mj per square mm of exposed spamcake at 20
degrees centigrade. Which accounts for low sales resistance in many cases.

Hmm. Obviously a Second Foundation trap.

when replying, wild South American spamcakes can sense fear up to 20 meters.

| (...) I can't speak to spamcake energy density gradients but I can tell you one thing. The bogon flux density is definitely on the increase around here. See the Hacker's dictionary (a hard copy of which I saw for the first time last week. I knew it (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
