I'm not offended by words. I was just talking about other people. Some people are offended by words, some are apparently offended by others being offended.



> I'm not offended by words

Then why defend people who are offended by words? That's their problem, not yours.

> some are apparently offended by others being offended.

O_o


I just thought it was unusual that someone would complain about being offended by the beeps that hide the words that other people are offended by. So I pointed out that they must know how the people they're complaining about feel when they hear those words, since they have to hear something (beeps) that they're offended by.

Those while thing was hypocritical and goofy.
