Stupid things that people get offended by.

The_Minister

Inspired by the Israeli official who was offended by the term "Swine flu".


A close relatve of mine lives in England, and one day used the term "stick it where the monkey stuck the nuts".
He was immediately accosted by a black woman, who preceded to berate him for using a racist term.
He politely listened then walked away without saying anything.


Any examples the boardsies can think of?

A few years ago in school a teacher caught me talking and told me to tell the whole class what I was saying. I told her it was just a stupid joke so then of course she really wanted to embarass me...

So i said

"What do scottish sheep say? - McBaaa"

And she went CRAZY!!! Said I was racist and tried to give me lines!!!!

Hahahaha I still get a good laugh out of it!

I'm such a cunning linguist that someone somewhere is always going to be offended by what I say.

People who get offended when you refer to someone of African extraction as Black.

Have heard phrases such as "African American" being used to refer to a black person living in Ireland who incidentally was Kenyan and not American. Thought is was ignorantly amusing.

When you slap them or make a fool outa them, like God relax ffs.

liah

Pretty much anything.

Swear words, different viewpoints, boobs, penises, nudity (that one especially bothers me, it's only natural), second hand smoke, meat eaters, vegetarians, conspiracy theories, government, fat people, skinny people.

People spend too much of their time being offended in this horribly PC culture.

People who get offended about other people not wanting kids

Jonathan Woss and Russell brand, "I shagged your granddaughter" to Fawlty Towers Manuel actor Andrew Sachs.

His granddaughter was all offended about 'how could they do that to my grandfather'. A week later she was thanking them for all the publicity she got. She sold her story and ruined her relationship with her grandfather

People that get all offended when you happen to dislike someone of a different ethnic origin.

I can call him a stupid c*nt if I want. Its not racist if he IS a stupid c*nt. Oooh, racist, racist. F*ck off. Your a stupid c*nt too. Get offended by that.

That really gets my goat. Stop trying to be so PC. The only way to ensure total political correctness is to insult f*cking everyone!

People that get offended by things like Christmas/Easter. Oh, we might offend someone of a different belief. Well, you know something? F*ck em! If you were in their neck of the woods, they wouldn't change anything for you. So f*ck off.

Broad societal trends.

Irish people being offended by English people saying anything negative at all about Ireland - even if it's true.

"Black" - how come it's ok to use the word "white" so? And how come black people are cool with calling themselves "black"?

they know they are, its ok if they state it,
but they dont need you telling them they are....


now i cant help but wonder,
if white people would have suffered slavery, maybe it would all be the other way around :O

*yo whitey, word*
*who you calling white bway??*

I'm still confused by this. Why is this offensive? Have they not got more important things to worry about?

nope not offended actually find them quite hilarious.

another one that people get offended by is when someone asks can you keep a secret and you say yes and you write down word for word what they say to text everybody.

Really now who the hell can keep a secret especially when the topic is definitely of interest to people otherwise it wouldn't need to be a secret now would it

Unbelievable. What's wrong with saying 'black'?

Yeah, or by people saying they don't like kids. "Oh my god, you monster, you horrible person!"

That's the most annoying thing ever. Why would a person of another religion care if Christians celebrate Christmas and Easter?

I have friends of different religions who actually thought it was incredibly surprised by that whole ''removing the crib from the hospital'' scandal. One said to me "Well, this is a Christian country, I expect you celebrate Christian holidays! Why would it offend me in anyway?" :pac: The same friend (Muslim) also puts up Christmas cards and such in his house if people give them to him. Not a problem with it at all.

The worst thing is people assume it's those of the other faiths kicking up a fuss, when in fact it's probably some ball-less official trying to seem cosmopolitan and tolerant.


The most stupid thing I ever heard was actually a thread on here in the Atheists and Agnostic forum where somebody was 'offended' by a Christmas stamp- with Jesus on it! :eek::eek::eek::eek: :rolleyes:

whodoo

a teacher told me that he wasn't to refer to the blackboard as the "blackboard" but the chalkboard......

And isn't it true that Big Ears from Noddy got renamed White Beard....?

All seems a bit daft to me....

I really don't understand how women get on their high horse when you refer
to them as "she". It's happened a good few times.
When did that simple pronoun become an insult that women take offense at???

That reminds me of a joke:-


What’s the difference between a women and a terrorist??


You can always nagotciate with a terrorist!!

I am always vastly amused by the explosions of fury over the title of someone chairing meetings etc. If it's a man he's the "chairman", but for some weird reason, if it's a woman she has to be referred to as the "chair" or "chairperson" and never, ever "chairwoman". Why do women see it as offensive to be called women, and prefer to be classed as a piece of furniture?

*or is it that they are piece of.........No. I'm not that brave. I withdraw that*

I despise the people who get all high and mighty when you use certain words they deem offensive. In a college debate a month back I refered to a film called ****** Joe and watched as the entire class turned against me. There's one black guy in the class and as such people deemed it a personnal attack on him. I had to listen to weeks of "You're a racist", "That was disgusting" from a few people in the class. Now had I turned to the black guy in my class and said "I hate ****" I would understand their anger but seriously some people seem to think that we should censor everything we say.

Edit: Just remembered the time I asked a black woman at the table beside me in a restraunt if she could pass the black pepper. herself and her friend went off on a massive rant about how I was being racist. She called over a waiter and demanded to be moved, both myself and the waiter pointed out that there was both white and black pepper on the table and it was in no way a racist comment.
