Origin of BangBang?

Communication depends on shared understanding of the meaning of words and phrases. If enough people misuse a word or phrase, that meaning will eventually end up in dictionaries, but I don’t think that’s the case here.

The original post in the Bang Bang topic was about a serious bang bang, in fact a bang bang bang bang bang bang.

“When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.” “The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.”
