[Blandmum]

GREAT website

science of cookery spodish but excellent!

OT: what's the etymology of "spod"? Particularly the verb form. Any ideas?

(I have McGee on science of cookery, very informative.)

spod (spd)
n. Chiefly British Slang
One who spends an inordinate amount of time exchanging remarks in computer chatrooms or participating in discussions in newsgroups or on bulletin boards.

So we are all spods. Doesn't give origin tho

Yeah, I'm after the origin. I've known the term for about 10 years. (It's just British, not American at all.) But no idea where it's from.
