do you find people who are easily offended offensive?

Not offended, but having to tip toe around them gets annoying.....and dull

 

Why tip-toe around them when you can walk straight through them?

That's a nice gesture. I'd PM Skip, but I don't think he really cares about what I have to say, and I honestly don't blame him. He probably has better things to do. I really do appreciate the gesture though.

 

Some people just need to get a thicker skin.

 

Sometimes. What really gets me is more 'baiters' though. People who have so little power and are so miserable in real life they have to 'get one over' on someone on an internet forum.
Just makes me really happy to be me .

 

Yess!

 

cos then they try to talk to you

 

I have a very relaxed outlook on things. I tend to say what's on my mind; my subconscious is very close to the surface. If I do get fired up, I tend to sulk. I'm an Aussie, mate, it's almost impossible to offend me.

I don't really find easily offended people, offensive 'cause I really haven't throught about it much. If I do offend someone, I don't really make a big effort in trying to make them feel better, unless I know them well (then again, if I do know someone well enough, they'll know I'm not trying to be an ass; I just dont always think before I say something). I'll usually defend myself.

 

Expose the whiners!

And when we discover who the tell-tale-tit in our midst is, I suggest we all neg him or her calling them a **** or something.

 

I am in this camp.
It makes me avoid them, since I am not out to offend them, I am just being me..

 

They tend to annoy me, amuse me, or both.

Mostly, people who are easily offended just lack a sense of humor and/or ability to read people. That, or they just need to cause a ruckus.

 

Isnt it funny though how everyone else is an idiot but oneself

Lashing out on an internet forum, that just may simply be a better place to lash out than ones partner, family or friends.

We are all losers, we are ignorant with some things, and there is always someone out there better than us at somethings

 

No, I just feel like slapping them sometimes. 5 across the eyes would be sauce.

 

are you talking about me?

 

i have never thought of you as easily offended penny.

if you are, you hide it well.

 

I tend to annoy them.

 

no I'm not easily offended particularly not by people I don't care about.. haha my thread about people being mean just flashed into my head though

 

lol, i forgot all about that.. ok well maybe you can be thin skinned at times..

 

I think I tend to take some things too personally, and I have a chronic fear of being misunderstood.

lol

how egocentric.

 

I find people who are easily offended totally annoying but fun to piss off.

 

well if we're talking about touchy people I think they're funny.. I like teasing touchy people.. now if they get mean in their touchiness, and I know people who will be mean to defend themselves - like insult you out of the blue try to hurt you just cause you upset their feelings, well, I think these people are assholes and I don't wanna waste my time with them. besides it's extremely childish.

now by offended do you also mean stuck up people who.. don't understand a joke.. take everything too seriously.. and then make a melodramatic speech about how horrible the world is.. well these people annoy me very much yes. but sometimes they can be very entertaining too.
