1. hoodia
1. (noun) plant which ontains some compound which is believed by some to lower blood pressure, though no credible medical study yet supports this claim.
2. (noun) subject of large quantities of annoying spam I've been receiving lately which is really beginning to piss me off, enough so that I posted these definitions.
Damn spammer wants me to buy hoodia from this email link so he can keep his AMG from getting repo'd.

Hoodia gordonii, often just hoodia, is a succulent plant.
It allegedly stills hunger and has been subject of some scams involving fraudulent medication (filled with sawdust instead).

It may have some sexual connotations that I'm not aware of, but I lump this together with the tons of spam for dubious medication supposedly available on the Internet at ridiculous prices.
