I believe I'll pass this time. But if you do this again for a more worthy effort, keep me in mind.

(6,154 posts)I mean this is the fucking Internet we are talking about here, not the halls of congress where anything goes. This is SERIOUS business as they like to say. And of all places, this deeply offensive thread was posted in the lounge of all places, think of the nerve it took! Cute cat threads are one thing, but a thread about NOTHING!? No, we can't go there, that way be dragons! I mean today we allow posts about nothing, tomorrow well be fucking squirrels in the woods, which come to think of it... hold on a sec I'll be right back...

ALERTER'S COMMENTS:
Nasty call out/META topic. Calling attention to a thread in ask the administrators to shame and humiliate that member is just wrong. It makes the lounge suck. Please close this.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue May 7, 2013, 08:10 PM, and the Jury voted 0-6 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I have forwarded $20 to his paypal account.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: What?? I don't get it. If I don't get it, it has to stay. Again, what??????
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Its the lounge, which can be a prickly place if one lacks a sense of humor.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

(18,101 posts)Ever joke with a cop and just get a blank stare in return? That's the way the self-anointed purity police are. They're humor and sarcasm impaired. It's funny that the alerter of this OP claimed it was a "Nasty call out/META topic". He posted that ATA question at the same time this call out sub-thread was going on.
