On Fri Jul 11, 2014, 03:58 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

You're a big ol' poopy head
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=5229198

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

I resent the fact that my being a poopy head has been made public. I shared my poopyheadedness with this poster in confidence. Trollish and generally naughty. Please not only hide, but take out back of the woodshed and flog incessantly until I say stop.

A vent to let the steam escape and a nice moment to stop and think about what's so special about this place. Not to mention a forum to let some here showcase their humor. DU has a lot of very humorous people!

Oh, and just so you know, I appreciate you for pointing out how nice this has been, Peacetrain.
