Why do people say blam and bump a lot in the forums

I am just kind of confused why people say blam and bump a lot in the forums it just doesn't make sense to me. Could someone explain to me why people say it?

  • Blam comes up when someone curses. It's like the automatic sensory to the word. The forums do that when someone says a curse word. Bumping is so the post shows more comments so it gets noticed better.

  • People 'bump' their posts or others so it shows up in the most recent threads. Its just a way to try to get the thread noticed. I'd assume blam is just an offshoot of that... But then again I'm in my 30s so I don't have a clue what the kids are doing these days with their hip hop and their dupstep... Please read the last line like bill Cosby.

  • Blam = polite expletive Bump = adding a reply to a thread just to "bump" it back to the top of the forums list.
