Took a long time for the OP's message to load in the alert system (maybe because of the pictures?), but once I started reading the OP, I totally forgot I was serving on a jury. Sorry to hold things up.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

I don't think the first three are funny. Kinda dirty for the DU. I didn't read on.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed Oct 28, 2015, 05:19 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Don't like, don't read. Don't censor for the rest of us.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Lighten up Francis
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: NO clue what this is, why it was alerted, i did not and will not read the entire thing...sigh
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: i guess maybe a better solution would be to use 'hide thread' rather than alert. The post seems appropriate for the Lounge.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
