jello
 n.

    [Usenet: by analogy with spam] A message that is both excessively
    cross-posted and too frequently posted, as opposed to spam (which is
    merely too frequently posted) or velveeta (which is merely excessively
    cross-posted). This term is widely recognized but not commonly used; most
    people refer to both kinds of abuse or their combination as spam.
