Question Where does this ---> "dumdumdumdum" come from?
I keep seeing this popping up in a lot of threads about the new Camaro. Can someone clue an idiot in on this please?

dum dum dum...is a spawn of satan for those of us who type with long drawn out (glorious) Southern Twangs. Camaro has too many syllables to write..M@RO is much easier for those of us that type with a slow twang :p
