OMG, my cat almost alerted on a post...

She was walking on the keyboard and was just about to type in a reason for the alert when I grabbed her...

That would have been embarrassing!

On Thu Mar 2, 2014, 07:01 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

Cat gifs SUCK and so do the people who look at them

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

This person is insulting our furry overlords AND fellow DUers

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Mar 6, 2014, 07:14 PM, and the Jury voted 3-3 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Agree with alerter, but cats can stand up for themselves.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Go 'way, I'm sleeping.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No chezburger, no hide.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Catnip!! Nom nom nom nom nom. Too stoned; didn't read.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Now you will face my claws of death.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: You will know fear. And then you will die, but only after stepping on a cold, wet hairball in your bare feet at 3am.

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

and your juror comments are excellent! This is one of the funniest things I've read on this site.

"No chezburger, no hide." "Now you will face my claws of death." LOL.

He was so pissed at the post, he "greeted" me at the top of the stairs. After grabbing the handrail upon hitting the third step, I explained he was one of my best friends and I would never say anything like the poster!!! To this day, he is still giving me the stink eye.
