Morally less-able (through no fault of their own!) persons.

I'm offended by the way you used the word, Less..

Isn't it "bad" enough to be constantly reminded
"That size does matter?"

How dare you use the words "more" and "money" in the same sentence! Do you think significantly-below-average-earners or no-income-persons like being constantly reminded of their economic difficulties?

I'm just so Offended
Eavesdropping is so Rude
I put those words within a parenthesized statement
Have you no regard for one's privacy?

I can't believe you would use a word like "eavesdropping", that's so archaic. Don't you know that people who drop eaves can be perfectly law-abiding members of society? How can you express a disgusting stereotype like that? Eavesdroppers fought for their rights for years, and you just go and throw that term around like that!

Well personally I think the word evesdropping is offensive to people who are named Eve. How would you like it if people made fun of dropping you? How about using the words hearing advanced? If it's referring to people who drop gutters then they should be called gutterfingers. If the word refers to roofers then I guess it should be edge challenged or something like that. You need to use the right term for the right profession or ability.

Alas you may a point..
I could see how someone who was eavesdropping
could mistakes the word, eavesdropping, for Eve's Droppings...

"Mistake?" That sounds like miss-take-- you have obviously implied that women are more likely to be wrong! How can you be so inconsiderate?!

How could you be so old fashioned and insensitive to call an XX chromosome individual a "woman"?! Don't you know that "woman" means "of the man"? They are not owned by men!

Hmmm I'm over 50 , are you implying I am obsolete?
Help! Help! I am a victim of Ageism someone stop them, please!

Oh, so you're saying that the ideas and views of the previous generations can not be improved upon? That you are entitled to be right by merit of your age? That my generation has nothing to offer the world? YOU JERK!

That's a tough one. I was going to say that your generation could offer my generation a little respect, but then I remembered that it is my generation that burdened your generation with like a National debt of ten trillion dollars, which works out to like 2.5 million dollars per taxpayer.

So speaking for "My" generation

WE ARE A BUNCH OF JERKS!

Ah, I see. Victims can't do anything for themselves: they're doomed to be victims forever, no matter what they try. They'll just keep being pathetic and down-trodden all their lives. You go wallow in your superiority over there, where you can't hurt all the victims of the world.





This is fun!

The words down-trodden are offensive to geese. If you use these words you must also say that no animals were hurt whilst down-trodding whoever you were down- trodding.

DISCLAIMER: No Animals were harmed during the creation of this thread. However, the matter is being litigated. because Suzy in Ohio felt that her Gander, would have felt offended if he could have understood the language. I mean insulting someone in a different language is still an insult...

You need to be careful when you use the word creation. It is too religious for some people. I can just imagine that any oversensitive atheists and agnostics (if people like this do exist) might feel as if their rights have been violated. You need to be more sensitive. Use the words origination or engineered development instead, these words are more religion neutral.

The word 'sensitive' is offensive to people with skin problems, so that you know.

Just as there are so many words and sentences religious people get offended by.

You really ought to be more careful when you use the word "sentence" it has a double meaning. It can mean "a decision as of a court" or to "pronounce punishment upon" or it could mean "a word or group of words usually containing a subject and a predicate, that states asks etc." Now, in your statement above you used the words "sentence" and "religious people" in the same statement. Someone could imply from this that you wish to round up all the religious people in the world and "pronounce punishment upon" them. You need to be more sensitive about how you word things.

You should us the word 'subject' more carefully. People aren't meant to be under the control of others anymore, you know: no-one can have 'subjects' nowadays.

You should be more careful about using the word "control". It is a poke in the eye to those who are incontinent.

Yes you are right, perhaps I should have used the words "rank challenged" or in another context I should have used the words "the noun of the statement".

Oh I was sooo insensitive. After a few days of sensitivity awareness classes I should be okay, please don't fire me.

Oh shit I was Ninja'd. Isn't it politically incorrect to Ninja someone? Perhaps we all need to take sensitivity awareness classed to find out weather we are being insensitive or not.

"Classes" is offensive to those who don't live in egalitarian societies: it's not their fault they're segregated by their birth circumstances.

And it's hypocritical to ninja someone with a post that complains about being ninja'd. Apologise to me or I'll sue you!

It was meant to be somewhat so to make an impact.

Well let's look at the word "Ninja'd" it should be seen in a positive light. It honors their proud warrior history and their ability to sneak around and get someone. On the other hand some ninja 's might get offended by this because sometimes someone of the group of people who are getting honored get offended for no reason that is apparent to me. The logical thing to do would be to take a survey and see how many people like the term and how many are offended by the term. Then the vote to use the term or not use it would go to the majority. Unfortunatly this is unfair to the minoriity, so even if only one Ninja dislikes the term "to Ninja", we must for his/her sake not use the word. In this case the majority needs to be more sensitive to the minority even if that minority is represented by only one person.

Now, just to complicate things unnecessarily, what if all the Ninja's in the world like the term but non-ninja's think the term is offensive to Ninja's? Well, then I suppose the term should not be used because it is offensive to Ninjas, even though no Ninjas are offended by the word.

Nice thought. However, what's to be done for all the people who find the Truth to be offensive?

You see, grey matters, I have not yet addressed the issue and you have already warned me. When people offend atheists, agnostics, christians or whatever, people get offended no matter what, it was what I tried to explain. People see what they want to see.

By which you mean bathtub? (You have offended those who insist on good spelling, unless there is indeed such a thing as a bath tube, in which case I have offended you.

Indeed, I will offend you again by saying I don't give a female rat's scrotum whether I offended you or not. :p)

You may not care if you offended or not but you will still have to go to sensitivity awareness classes and you could also get fired, sued, and branded on national t.v. as that insensitive, ignorant, primitive asshole. You cant win!! Especially if you are a single white straight (not gay) male who is not trans gender. You may as well give up because PC will always brand you as an insensitive, ignorant, primitive asshole weather you are one or not. PC will always be against you. Oh doom and gloom.

Oh poor me! I have spelled it wrongly!

But you have offended me with your lack of sensitivity. I order you to be burned. Prefferably in a public square, you demon of a man.
