RE: What Does/Does Not Offend You?
I'm offended by Racism, sexism, homophobia and attacks on free speech. I'm also offended at being called a racist, sexist or homophobe, because I find all those things offensive myself. I think calling someone a racist is designed to offend them, also it's normally said by people who are offended by virtually everything.


I guess I'm not offended by pretty much everything else. I'm not really a very easy person to offend.

That would make me the most offensive person here, lol.

It doesn't offend me but one of my pet peeves are certainly people who have a problem having mistakes pointed out. If it's petty and not a big deal then no need to let it bother you Tongue

I much prefer pedantic people over people who care about mistakes being pointed out when learning one's mistakes however small is a good thing. Hehe. Doesn't offend me though. It's just annoying when people whine when I correct them. It feels egotistical. If it's not a big deal then so what if you made a mistake, ya know?

Lol obviously we disagree there but I'm also in the minority. Happy to be in the minority. I think it's humble to be pedantic, lol.
You need a comma after but and a peroid after 'bother you'. obviously should be capitalized and 'Happy to be in the minority.' snd 'Doesn't offend me.' are incomplete sentences because they lack an object.

Happy to help. Tongue

Offense: taking yourself/myself to serious. Life is to GD short.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

Trivialization of racism against white people.

I feel ya, dude. That offends me almost as much as people who don't let hardcore trekkers wear their Starfleet uniforms to court. We will overcome!

Edit: And don't get me started on all the prejudice against Klingons! You know most colleges still don't allow you to satisfy your foreign language requirement with tlhIngan Hol? Now that's offensive!

What offends me?

Any crime that involves a victim.

That's it. Great post by the way!

I used to love going to cock fights back in the day too, sorry if it offends anyone!

For some reason, whatever the context, whenever I hear the word "whore" I usually go full SJW feminist "Check your privilege" mode. So one can safely say that offends me.

People who say they respect the "choice" of being gay.

People who post pictures of mutilated, tortured, hurt children to supposedly promote some kind of awareness. Assholes.

People being assholes to the homeless.

People being assholes to people with autism, Down syndrome, Tourette syndrome, any kind of special need.

Racism.

Things that don't offend me:
Nipples and tacos.

Funny, I've never viewed you as a pedant, Alasdair. I see pedants as miserable dullards and I don't see you that way.
Or maybe I don't know you well enough. Tongue Wink

Does offend:

Farts

Does not offend:

Scientology
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

I am never offended by words: Shit, fuck, cunt, jew? They're just words. Use 'em all you want.

I am sometimes offended by sentences: I think homosexuals do not deserve the same rights as normal people. That is some offensive mother fucking shit right there.
