And to answer the other posters, I'm 26. Never heard anyone call me goofy, but I'm okay with you thinking I am.
This is one of those threads where the OP feels a certain way about people and seems to wish others agree with their assessment. Of course there's no way to definitively measure whether OP's assumptions are true or not. I definitely don't feel the same as the OP, at least I don't think things are different right now than any other time I can remember. I also think OP may be interpreting information differently than many other people that causes them to feel this way. Nothing wrong with that but it may explain why they feel that way.
People are too PC these days. Like i was hanging out with a friend, and he was talking about a woman he was dating. I asked him "you f*ck her?" He paused as if I said something offensive and said "yes, we slept together". Like what is that??
Has absolutely nothing to do with being too PC, do you even understand what being PC is? The fact that you don't understand why someone would find this offensive is telling. You might be 26 but your thinking is pretty juvenile, which is NOT the same thing as childlike.

Sorry, I should have provided more context here. We were already talking about women, but apparently THAT was over the top.

Reason: just stop the inappropriate and banned words
Okay for example, i notice people have this creepy urge to turn something into politics. I would rather talk about my latest conquest at the bar, sports or traveling somewhere.
Sometimes, if I am stuck in traffic i will wave at the car next to me. No reason. I don't know them or anything. I'm just chill like that. Sometimes they wave back, sometimes they look at me like "what are you doing".

And music. Why do pop songs about couples breaking up top the charts? I love punk and heavy metal. That is upbeat stuff. But alas, that is going out of style.
Also, I think movies like sharknado are hilarious
Does any of this help?
I think people are offended too easily these days and am sick to death of things becoming political. However, I think talking about conquests and asking others about theirs is immature and intrusive.

You sound immature so no, you're not an endangered species.
If you waved to me (and I saw you) I'd probably smile and wave back. I'm friendly like that.
If my group of friends got on a politics rant, I'd wish I was somewhere else. I once went to a high school alumni lunch (very informal) and everyone talked about AARP and retirement. (Sigh). BORING. But I sat there, ate my lunch, and listened to what others had to say. It was the polite thing to do.
I also like silly movies. My favorite silly movie is "Mars Attacks!" and "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". I could watch those movies once a week probably, and still laugh like I was seeing it for the first time. I LOVE to be silly. I LOVE belly laughs. But...life isn't always silliness and belly laughs. That's being a grown up I guess. (I'm not saying you're not a grown up OP.) Being light hearted in a serious world is a gift. But MAYBE you have a hard time knowing when it's appropriate to let loose, and when it's not. (Hard to tell from one post, and I'm not accusing.)

And you can't see why it would be over the top? You were asking about his girlfriend, i.e. a loved one, not some other women in your & his social circles or work environment or whatever the context was.
OP, your difficulty understanding context and people's reactions may indicate that you're slightly on the autism spectrum. Or not. But that question tends to get raised on this forum, when an OP is puzzled about why people are reacting to him/her in ways that are unexpected to the OP.
