Easily offended

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Easily offended

I just want to know, how easily are you folks offended? Why I'm asking, is I dont want to say anything in a thread that might offend you, or make you angry.
I'll be back on Friday to read the replies
BTW
I'm not that easily offended I just dont like it if somebody refer to me as a guy and when people call me SW instead of sw

Offended? I live in a community where there is a lot of crap being thrown around against certain people. Let's just say, there are people who hate people for trivial reasons. I'm very tolerant of people.

Signature? What's that?

Nah, I usually offend other people. My sense of humour involves saying exactly what I'm thinking, some people put on the whole "that's gross" attitude but you know they're thinking the same things too.

don't worry about it, its difficult to offend anyone here, we've all got very thick skins

however...

Now, either you are being dryer than a knat's armpit and that is an expression of sarcasm...or else...I'm really confused about this statement for 2 reasons - firstly, you're not a guy??! did I miss something??! Secondly, try not to get offended if people capitalise "sw", its an easy mistake and not everyone will know that offends you...

...but...

....you're being sarcastic right?...

....

....right???!

She's a girl Grom, go sit in the corner and hide your face in shame. But then I didn't know either until just recently.

yay, another girl...I should get a TLR gf now.

I only ever get narky when someone insults my intelligence or calls me a liar, apart from that you can call me all the names under the sun before i'll take offense.

Post Wed Apr 07, 2004 3:26 pm

That's because you two (SS and Grom) are unobservant .

I used to be easily offended many years ago, but now I can weather anything. There are things that I dislike; eg. swearing, but I can live with them. This is a free forum after all .

Jeez Grom, what a way to join a discussion about taking offense. My motto is normally to not make offense to take offense (if that made sense). Either that or I pick a target to make fun of. Here I have none.

Signature? What's that?

@ sw

OK. Busted. I didn't notice the upper case lower case thing. BTW you may have noticed that freighter fighter is referred to as ff but THAT is in deference to a TLR Mod who named Fear Factor who, of course, is FF.

Anyway. Sorry sw. Will try to remember the no upper case thingy.

@sycho_warrior, I may have used SW on another thread. No offence meant.

you can call me g....please note that's g NOT G....thats just plain offensive

I apologise prefusely sw for not knowing that you are a girl...I obviously wasn't interested in the particular thread where that became apparent. I have no reason to want to offend you so I apologise if I had.

The rest of you - shut it! how was I supposed to know? Your uncle grom can't be in every thread ya know, he's a busy man

Actually Im starting to wonder if people who are easily offended actually know that they're easily offended? And if they do, would they freely admit it on a public forum?

Now there's a psycological noodle scratcher for you.

I sometimes may get slightly offended - most often when people try to do sth over my head totally ignoring me though I get involved. Otherwise (e.g. when sb tries to swear at me or sth) I just ignore the **** or beat him up - depends on how strong the insult is.

An idea came to my head and is now desperately searching for brain
