Really? This Offended You?

[Aliantha]

Some people just can't be reasoned with.

Why someone would bother sending a PM to say they're offended boggles the mind, but I guess that's what the person thought was the right thing to do.

Some people are right though, some things are more offensive to some people than others. There are some things said or pictures posted on this site that I find offensive, but that's life. Everyone's different. Sometimes there's a deeper reason for things being viewed as offensive, but usually if that's the case, the person wont actually say it.

I went through this issue years ago when I came here after someone cracked a joke which to me was offensive.

You need to remember that in this place, if people think you should just suck it up then you'll get no sympathy, even if it's about something that's particularly difficult for you.
