What is it about people being offended these days. Another thread on here says that someone was offended because someone else called their parents idiots. Someone is offended because of a jumper that says OCD -Obsessive Christmas Disorder and wants it banned. Christians are offended at this and Muslims at that so they should be banned.
Whatever happened to being allowed an opinion. Or being funny. It seems that the "I'm offended" brigade only exist because there are idiots out there that will listen to them and pander to their needs.
I am not saying that people should be allowed to be abusive or incite harts but there needs to be some common sense applied.
AIBU to think whatever happened to the phrase "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me?"
