The Dot Thread is supposed to be the NSFW catch-all of inappropriate memes.

This thread is a public portion of our Forum that is viewable by anyone; to included those who may be coming here for advice about a future Military career.
Can we please back off the visually/verbally explicit and in some cases borderline racist posts a bit?
Just because it’s a ‘gay/trans’ joke does not mean it belongs in this thread…military related ones that might have some relevant humor? Of course, but some of the stuff posted the past few weeks cross the line of decency, even for this thread.
I’m not going to take the time to have individual conversations with every member about this; so if you notice a missing post or you find yourself unable to post in the thread for 24 hours…take the hint.
To paraphrase Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart in 1964:
"I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced... but know it when I see it ..."
To add: My sincere appreciation to two former Admins here who from time-to-time send me the occasional heads-up and/or guidance. This is literally (and I know how to use the word literally) a thankless job; so I appreciate those of you who in the spirit of maintaining the integrity of this forum, still give of your time and energy.
