(17,304 posts)The thread title doesn't even indicate that she's dead. Everyone was jumping to conclusions, myself included.
Good one, OP!
Happy new year.

Anyone that easily offended needs to take a break from the internet. A long one.

(17,304 posts)Obviously a lot of forum members got a kick out of it!

(612 posts)I opened the post and broke into a loud, sustained laugh. With all the bad news we deal with every day now, I really needed this - and I appreciate it! I love Betty White, and I would bet that she might have done this herself. This is hilarious!

(24,367 posts)If the OP doesn't "remove. Now", what are you going to do?
Someone mentioned this post has been alerted on and apparently survived, so what are YOU going to do? Stomp your feet? Hold your breath till you turn blue? Throw your teddy out of the pram?
This is what has become of the lounge and DU in general. We USED to be able to take a joke. You and the others in this thread that clearly lack a serious sense of humor need to get over yourselves
"remove. now"

(17,252 posts)Wow, that's pretty commanding!
How idiotic. It's an open forum and it's the LOUNGE. FUN, SILLINESS etc.
You haven't been here or posting much to assume that you can demand ppl remove stuff.
If'n ya don't like it, un-rec it and/or ignore it sheesh.
oh yeah, Happy New Year.
Go find a sense of humour k?

(6,810 posts)Mourn when she's dead, but for fuck's sake lighten up Francis! Some of you just need to laugh at the yearly tradition of Betty White's Death Announcement.

Of course with that orange guy taking over in 2017 how good is it going to be?

cwydro
(51,308 posts)Get over yourself.
It's a joke; this is the Lounge.
Alekzander
(479 posts)Maybe you should get over yourself since you felt such an urge to point out something that was already pointed out. As I can point out the ones that say "not cool" that say it is a big thud or the one that requested it to be removed. I also do not voice my opinions on the number of recommendations or not-recommendations. Maybe you do & you take a look before you voice your opinion?
Again, your opinion & also at least my post was courteous to the poster unlike whatever point you were trying to make.

(53,410 posts)Loosen up! We really try to be friends here in the lounge.
Alekzander
(479 posts)post like I got from the other poster. A bad joke is just that a bad joke. I had moved on but it seems you & the other poster do not take well to a comment which is just that, a comment, an opinion. Maybe it is time for you to move on.
Now, why don't you try to relax & let others who may make an opinion other than what you believe do just that.
Constructive criticism is great but for someone to come after you for something so trivial because they did not like what you said shows a very small mind as well.
lunatica
(53,410 posts)And you really don't know what my opinion is. I just wanted you to feel comfortable and welcomed and I'm sorry you misunderstood that.
Alekzander
(479 posts)been on here for some time.
Yes, most DUers are very easy to get along with except for the few like the one who made a totally unnecessary comment to me.
It was something that was totally unnecessary & as I said, have learned to not care but I will make my own opinions & my opinions will not be based on if the recommendations are more positive or more negative. It will be my own opinion.
It's all ok.
It was just a silly meme.
Everything is ok...don't you worry now.

(53,410 posts)Maybe we're dealing with the Trump factor now. You know, the kneejerk reaction to everything as if it's a personal attack on them.
