On a scale of 1 to 5.....

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

You pick by what....just in general in your life, how often do you find yourself feeling offended


For me - 1....never offended.

[Torie]

2. I am still barely human believe it or not.

1 - It's almost impossible to offend me since I take almost nothing seriously.

T-shirts with American flags on them offend you.

When it's something even remotely critical about myself, I can become easily offended, and it will stay in my mind for months. Other than that, it's just some of the time.

     I occasionally get offended, I am sad to admit. I still need to develop thicker skin.

2 - it takes a lot to offend me.  But I'm sure I get offended every once in a while.

2.  It takes a real special kind of person to offend me.  Irritate me?  Aggravate me? Maybe.  But offend me?  It'd take basically a series of brutal, unprovoked attacks on a poster I like.  Someone like Einzige comes to mind as someone who occasionally offended me before I realized that he was unhinged and wasn't really in control of his behavior (by the time he got to Luftwaffe Heinreich, Knight of der Sky, I just found myself flabbergasted at his ignorance and stupidity).

Einzige's really the only name that comes to mind.

I chose 3, though I probably get offended less than some of the people who put down option 1.

Sooo true!

I put myself as a 2. It takes a lot to offend me, but when you do, I will let you know.

Well, fair enough.  I'm not "never ever" offended.  But I can count the things that offend me on one hand.  That's pretty low on the scale I think.

I don't know, I guess a 2?

I mean, if some nutzo posts something on the internet, that's not bad.  I'm not offended by anything anyone posts here unless it's someone whom I would otherwise respect.  I mean, I guess if someone influential says something really horrible, I can get legitimately offended, like when Sessions said directly that sexuality could be a disqualifier for the Supreme Court (those things are supposed to be hinted at through codewords like "shares our values!") then I can get legitimately bothered.   But that's like a couple times a year.

And I'm definitely not going to be offended if anyone wants to trash white people or men or the Irish here.  When BRTD goes after the Irish it's more hilarious than anything, and I'm probably the guy making fun of all the white men here more than 99% of y'all (and that's a pretty low bar to reach fwiw).


And, I think this post by TNC does a good job covering the rest of that stuff:

I hardly ever get offended, and I can be pretty offensive on some occasions.
