So just because I'm considerate of other people I have to grow some balls?

Well I don't use the n-word, and surprisingly on this very forum last week there were people from other countries who say Blacks raised in America are paranoid that someone is waiting around the corner to spit out the n-word. And that was exactly what happened. Ironic, yes?

Not what I said. People need to stop LOOKING for ways to be offended. That's why we have the massive amounts of lawsuits that we do.

I wasn't looking for a way to be offended.

And as per your post before this:

I'm pretty sure if a child molester started telling sex jokes to your child you'd be offended.

And I wasn't responding to you in that post, was I?

If you aren't talking about the issue I posted about, why are you in my thread?

I sincerely hope you are less dense in real life.

Edit: I shouldn't have typed that. Here we are talking about offending people and I'm sure I did just that. But surely you realize that other people WILL post on your thread, in response to other people, about THEIR post? Right? You do realize that, I hope.

No, the child molester's presence would be offensive. Really...you are running all over the road with this. What exactly WAS your point? That no one should ever say anything to offend you? Really? Good luck with that.

Stop me if you've heard this one before: a sprinter, a speed walker, and a marathon runner walk into a bar...

I was asking why someone would so something like I described in the first post. Please note I was asking why. I wasn't saying what someone should or should not do.

You are the one who is irrelevant(all over the road) here.

If you have an issue that isn't relevant to the thread go make another thread. It's simple.

Then again, you probably are this dense in real life.

Sadly, that is how the joke started.
