Bananas are tricky sometimes! :-)

Spammy is a tedious nutjob who's been infesting Usenet for
decades (yes, plural). It hangs out on the political newsgroups
and acts just like it does here. It's a pusillanimous little
cowardly grunt, and it has to shift nyms constantly to do
primarily two things: escape killfiles, and create patterns
of untraceability, since it will at some point contradict itself.

It's known for its childish hostility, easily triggered.

It is best responded to either not at all by mass killfiling, or
by relentlessly similar hostile responses. It will eventually tire
and wander off to express its cretinisms elsewhere. Its posting
patterns are easily enough to spot, no matter what the nym. It's
one of the chief agents in making Usenet a toxic sewer, but its
bottom-dwelling nature makes it easily flushable.

Set stun-guns to IGNORE and proceed.
