dahmum /dah'mum/ n.

[Usenet] The material of which protracted flame wars, especially those about operating systems, is composed. Homeomorphic to spam. The term `dahmum' is derived from the name of a militant OS/2 advocate, and originated when an extensively cross-posted OS/2-versus-Linux debate was fed through Dissociated Press.
