Oh phew, I tend to cough up the odd misanthropic joke, glad to hear its not offending anyone. ^^Demented Teddy said:
Truth be told what bothers me most is the emo's and other angsty teenagers who walk around preaching such stuff as though it were some kind of new found truth no one else has ever thought about.
(I don't hold any issue against emo styles and such, but people who are just angry/sad the whole time, as I understand emo's are, do bother me in stereotype)
I love you, because I was going to post exactly the same thing. Steve Hughes speaks the truth.PayJ567 said:
On topic: No, not really, nothing offends me except blatant idiocy. It makes me rage.
I think this is how it works for me to (kinda).shticks said:
I especially hate it when some idiot just calls someone else racist or sexist when it's something completely different. Just like that, nearly everyone becomes critical on that person, the amount of attention it gets is rediculous sometimes.
Dumb people to me are mostly people who shout out ignorant or arrogant crap, it's not exactly dumb but they are pretty similiar in some cases. The dumb ones are those who don't really think before saying, with out proof while claiming something as fact or hurting others.

I am incredibly easily offended. My tolerance for things is pathetically low and I become irate extremely fast. In real life I often literally have to bite my tongue to prevent myself from saying anything, though occasionally I will blurt out some reply, apparently just because I can. On the internet I usually force myself to laugh at whatever it is, otherwise I would go (more) insane or (gasp) have to leave the internet all together, though again I sometimes do something idiotic in response. It seems I'm in the minority, though. Oh well.
To be offended the person has to know me for it to actually matter and if they do know me and it is offensive without justification I will deal with them in a manner I see fit or appropriate.
Having said that, I am really thick skinned and do not get offended easily so it would have to be extremely drastic.

I can get oddly angry and defensive when people insult me for petty things or when I hear people ragging on stuff I like such as Halo or Ashley from Mass Effect.
I am astounded by how pissed off I can get by stuff that really shouldn't even slightly bother me but it really does.
I also can get quite offended by people who act uncomfortable around me because of my Asperger's Syndrome because they all seem to think that means they have to treat me gingerly or explain things to me as if I were a child. That can tend to piss me off.
That said for the most part, I can deal with negative criticism.

I am what you may like to call a ginger. If I were easily offended, I would have serious mental issues by now. To be honest, most of the people who use the word 'offended' tend to have no legitimate reason to take offence in the first place.
Yup, it is horribly offensive.generic gamer said:I actually own that shirt though I never wear it out. Really it's a little offensive to the jewish people I know and my grandad would hate it.Jedamethis said:Not at all. Because this is hilarious.
Nothing really has caused me to out-right say "I was offended by such-and-such subject matter," though there are certain things that have made me...questionable on why people would try to stir up those offenses in the first place.
Granted it doesn't mean anything in the big picture, but you can draw your lines somewhere.

It offends me when people discriminate others because of an accent, or because they like to eat cake with a fork instead of their hands, or because they like to shit with one leg up.
I was reminded of something where someone was VERY offended at getting slapped.

I'm easily offended by liars who ly for the sake of lying.
Lies born from humour are fine.
I usually try to reason them out with logic, which offends them more, resulting in a fight here or there, ghehe.
And to set things straight, i'm not much of a brawler, its much more interesting to fight with words, but if it comes to it, i'll go full out. So far it only happened four timestwice, and it always ended up with me breaking something or another, throwing a table or give swimming lessons.
