Offence

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.

Offence

I posted this question a few months back, but there are so many new people around I figured I'll post it again.
How easily are you offended? And by what?

Not very easily, but I'm probably most offended by direct insults to my person. I take that VERY seriously. After all most aging men are supposed to be grumpy old buggers, but I haven't got to the stage of chasing off the paperboy yet ....

I generally don't get offended... if someone tries to insult me I either ignore them or bite back with my sparkling wit

Not too easily, just in things involving the Lord or his name.

Im not offended easily

Annoyed yes but offended? Nope

See Im one of the few people that doesnt care what is said to him, its only a crude form of verbal communication, why should it bother me? lol

Now if this was about what annoyed me....

I'm offended by physical attacks/theft and nothing else.

I am very hard to offend...unless the person is 2 faced and or talks smack behind my back...those will set me off like a demon in a meat market!

other than that i am VERY easy to get along with

It doesn't take much to annoy me, but that's usually not a problem online. Me being offended, as in causing a personal vendetta, very difficult.

Christmas, is that a BF1942 mod or something?

Sure, I get annoyed, but usually not offended, I don't exacly give a flying flip what you say, it doesn't really matter anyway. But insult me to the point of being truely offended, well, let's just say getting handed over to corsairs would be preferable to what I would do to you.

It's a good thing I don't know how to build disruptors, the world is a much safer place because of it. .... Mwu-heh-heh-hehhh........

It's also a good thing that it's nearly impossible to piss me off to the point of offense.

as long as a comment is in jest it won't bother me but if you mean a comment towards me it would have to be bad to make me angry but if you target my family with a bad comment esp if they are not around to defend themselves watch out because heads will roll but if it's a joke and i know it i'll laugh maybe even join in (beside if you met my family you'd joke to )

if anyone does anything to my gf or says anything bad abt her (so far no bad comments)

Post Sat Nov 27, 2004 10:14 pm

Nothing, but if you insult my family or friends, ill kick your ass so hard, youll be sniffing excrement for the rest of your life.

Lets see:

1. Insult my family
2. Obbsessive complainers
3. human stupidity & people trying to talk about things they don't know squat about(I used to do it, quiet... )

I allow for the fact that many peoples cultures include ways and ideas which are not the same as mine and in such cases I accept our differences so long as their principles are not forced down my throat. Other people are just down right ignorant. In those cases they are just a lower form of life not worthy of my interest let alone an emotional reaction.

What annoys me the most however is when I offend someone else in error. Perhaps a silly example, but last week I submitted a post with the phrase "ass kickin'" and somebody claimed it was foul language. I would be horrified if some one thought I was being intentionally crude/offencive or ignoring them if that was not the case. This is more important when you realise that when I want to offend someone I'm sure to leave no doubt as to my intent.B-)

hmm nothing much that offends me...cept sexist jokes.
Insulting or hurting my family...or religion just gets me plain angry.
And it annoys me iff peopel capatalise sw when talking to me.
It used to really really annoy me if someone would generalise me under guys...but I dont really care about that anymore.

Other than that? Can't think off any now...but you'll know iff you offend me....I think a baseball bat against the skull is a very good way off telling someone they offended you
