In this thread, say anything at all and the next person to post (me or someone else) will take offense instantly and go off on you for no apparent reason. Note that the cool thing is that the next person needn't also make a statemtn for someone else to take offense at...their primary post will be enough. We can take offense at each other taking offense.
I'll start us off by saying that I really enjoy crisp fall days.
Posted by zgator (Member # 3833) on :
And what the heck is wrong with warm summer days? Or cold winter days? Or how about spring? Did you even think about those days?
No, of course not. Because you're a bigot, Bob. We've always known that and now you're proving us right.
Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :
zgator, you’re wrong to jump all over Bob like that. I happen to know that Bob really appreciates the full four seasons. You shouldn’t be so touchy.
Posted by Tammy (Member # 4119) on :
If you two are going to be married soon dkw, you're going to have to let the big guy fight his own battles. He'll need you around for strength, but not to fight his little battles.
(that was insulting you, not me taking it personally)
I'll try to do better.

Excuse me?? Believe me when I say I like crisp fall days more than most, Bob. I was born in September, loved walking to school, dressing up in costumes, having Thanksgiving dinners. I like the first gentle fall frost, that makes the scrunching noise when you walk on it, leaving a trail of verdant footprints. The walk home, the sky a soft gold highlighting the reds, oranges, yellows of the leafy headdresses of oaks, maples, and birches...
People like you, so pithily mentioning just one aspect of glorious fall, as if you really even KNOW, as if you truly understand, when you're just trying to fit in with the true aesthetes.
Hrmph.
You'd probably be quick to say you like cute little puppy dogs, too, even though you are so OBVIOUSLY a ferret person.

Undoubtedly, it was my taking the time to actually craft my post, as opposed to the sloppy amaturish take you presented on the same idea, that slowed me down.

Bob, Tammy is right. If you wanted people to actually get offended, you should have removed the "a game" in the title, which anyway drives here the people the most stupid and trollish I ever saw. Trolls love games. Especially simple games like that since in the monkey paw you have to think, not too much but to think anyway. How to recognize a troll ? It's easy. this is a troll.

Did someone say something? All I see are these feeble failed attempts at putting letters together to form the simplest of terms. You can't even write the word "a".

I made the most of my education that I could, Chad. Just because *you* can write perfect a's doesn't mean you should be such an intellectual elitist.

Folks, it takes no creativity at all to be offended by posts that are deliberately insulting.
Give the people posting after you a challenge by not being obviously offensive!

dana, I am deeply hurt that you find it necessary to moderate this fight. If anything, its Bob who should be moderating this fight. I'm affended that you would take his side simply because he is your future husband. What does this say to women everywhere who are seeking to be seen as individuals and not merely an appendage of their husband.
Posted by beverly (Member # 6246) on :
Chad, I can't believe you would make such a comment about a college student! Next time learn more about the person before you go making assumptions about their level of education.
Posted by The Rabbit (Member # 671) on :
beverly, Why did you slight me by skipping over my post and going back half a dozen to respond to Chad? This is clearly against the rules and could only have been done because you don't respect my input.
Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :
Rabbit, I'm offended that you would rub the fact that Bob is not here in my face. It's hard enough that I hardly ever get to see him and that I can't keep in contact with him during the day when he's traveling without you drawing attention to it!

It's so offensive that you refer to only part of a post. No post can be truly appreciated unless it is viewed in its entirety. We really need to adopt a more holistic view of Hatrack and world in order to rid ourselves of these petty offenses.

Must you take every word as indicating some form of descrimination? Perhaps we differentiate between adults and children because there are real differences and not out of some irrational prejudice.

Posted by The Rabbit (Member # 671) on :
Are you suggesting that there are only two kinds of nights, good and bad. That kind of dualism is insulting to the critical thinking ability of every one on this form. Why I've seen moon lit nights, dark new moon nights when a comet sailed high in the sky, cold windy Montana nights that could freeze your toes off in a flash, warm sunny nights with swarming fire flies. I've seen nights filled with sirons and traffic accidents, dark foggy nights. Lonely nights, dull nights, spirited nights.
How could you possible reduce that to good and bad nights.
Posted by dh (Member # 6929) on :
Well reading that last post was one minute of my life wasted.
Posted by The Rabbit (Member # 671) on :
Well at least you weren't offended by it. Which of course means that you have no right posting in this thread. I find it so insulting when hatrackers can't follow the simplest of rules.
Posted by dh (Member # 6929) on :
How dare you accuse me of breaking the rules? I was very much offended by it. So offended, in fact, that I saw no need to go to great lengths to describe how irrelevant it was, I simply dismissed it as beneath me. How dare you qualify my sense of offense and compare it to yours! I don't have to put up with your offendeder-than-thou attitude!

I am deeply insulted that you made me bust out laughing after reading the term "Offendeder-than-thou attitude."

I'm deeply offended that you should both compliment me in what is clearly a thread for taking offense.
Posted by The Rabbit (Member # 671) on :
Don't be so vane as too assume that everything is intended as a compliment to you. Lost Ashes comment was clearly intended as a general praise of people who add to the English language. That you would see it as specific praise for you and your post is very offensive.

Oh, and you just skip over my post like it wasn't even there. No one ever pays attention to me on this forum. I don't know why I bother posting.
Posted by ElJay (Member # 6358) on :
Elizabeth, I believe you purposfully misinterpreted my words, and I find that gravely offensive. It should be obvious that your post was simply not there when I began typing mine. How could you not understand that?
Posted by dh (Member # 6929) on :
I'm deeply offended that you would be offended at the speed of the expansion of offendedness. This entire offense thread serves the purpose of offendedness! Can't you see that? You offend me. I'm also offended that you would ignore me because you're too offended by me, when this is clearly the place to be offended. Therefore, being offended should be a good thing, but you offend me by considering it a bad thing. Which makes you a double... no, triple offender! How offensive.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
The Rabbit, because you have an article attached to your screen name, I feel offended. I am further offended by your lack of "I" talk, whch places ownership of the feelings back on the feeler. And I am further offended that in my response to you, my writing deteriorated.
Posted by The Rabbit (Member # 671) on :

I have used "I" as often on this forum as anyone else. Besides, its not about what I think or feel. Its not a matter of opinion - its a fact. Your posts are offensive.

We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week. But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting. By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs, but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more.

Elizabeth, dahling, you really have misconstrued my purpose in starting this thread. I don't know how else to say this except to just come right out and admit that I am offended.

I’m offended that I live right next door to the church and the early service isn’t until 9:15, so I can leave the house at 8:45 and still be the first one there.

Morbo, I'm offended that your would call Rabbit an animal, as if it's some kind of epithet.
Since when do you think you are so high and mighty that you can just go around labelling people? Have you no respect for Rabbit's feelings? have you hopped in her shoes lately? Do you know how difficult it is for a rabbit to make her way in the world?
Try opening your narrow-minded eyes and consider others for a change.
Posted by Morbo (Member # 5309) on :
Belle, there you go again. By registering your outrage re the animal label, you are the one showing your true colors. Like the lesbian/prez debate brouhaha, it only shows you're the one with "animal issues." I love animals--they're delicious.

Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
How dare YOU call the appropriation of a language "inappropriate!" Each of us has the innate right to take our native language and make it our own. It is as personal as our designer label jeans that we all wear to express our individuality.
Posted by The Rabbit (Member # 671) on :
How exclusive of you to imply that those who wear designer label jeans are the only ones who have individuality? Perhaps some of us can express our individuality in unique ways you haven't even considered.
Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
I can't believe you misconstrued my statement to mean that I believe designer jeans are the one and only way to express individuality. It's just this kind of offensive miscontruing behavior that has turned me sour on Hatrack in general, and this thread in particular.
Posted by The Rabbit (Member # 671) on :
I'm insulted that you would retreat to such a logical falicy. You quite clearly said that we ALL wear designer jeans to express our individuality. The only logical conclusion is that those of us who don't wear designer jeans, are not expressing our individuality.

2. I am offended by Turgan for being offended only in the conditional sense.

Digging Underscore Holes,
You are correct about me being offended by people, and that offends me, because you bring up a good point. I should be using therapist "I" talk. So, let me couch my offense in these terms:
Digging Underscore Holes, when you said that about me derailing the thread, it made me feel sad, and since sadness is offensive to me, I therefore felt offended by your statement as well.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Morbo, When you wrote that about Number One, and I did not get it, it made me feel dumb, and that offended me. Seconds later, when I did get it, but had already written a response, my offense was intendified by the decision to delete, or not, my penultimate offense.
Edit: I have offended myself by making the typo "intendified," as I was unable to remember what word I was going for, though I wrote it only moments ago.

I'm offended that you have a problem with the name Elizabeth as applied to brothers of yours.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
I am offnded that you cannot be your own brother's keeper, yet seem to want to keep the brothers of others.
Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
I'm offended that you mistook my egalitarian views regarding the gender-neutrality of the name Elizabeth to mean that I wanted to keep other people's brothers. I most certainly do not! Even if they are Elizabethan.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
"regarding the gender-neutrality of the name Elizabeth"
I am deeply offended by the fact that this phrase made me laugh out loud, and momentarily erased any offense I may otherwise have taken.

I am offended, Narnia, because you used the word "issue," and I immediately thought you were trying to make a nose pun in this offense thread. So, I am offended by my perceived offense, even though it was my mistake.

Oh my goodness! Now you are blatantly lying, trying to cover up your page reference, and I have HAD it. I am too offended to even BE offended, and am walking away now with my nose in the air.
OUCH! Now I have tripped and fallen, and it is YOUR fault, Bob, and yours alone!
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
I am further offended by the fact that every time I see your name, I think: "That name is on a package that is now all ready to go into the mail, yet which continues to sit on my desk." How offensive to make me feel so guilty, as if I am a procrastinator or something.
Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
I am just nonplussed. I mean, really, how could it possibly be my fault that you've broken your oh-so-out-of-joint nose when it was you who not only stuck it up in the air, but then proceded to walk with it in that position? Unbelieveable! I'll help you clean up the blood, though. Shall we try to put it back in?
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Did I say there was blood? Did I? Nowhere in my post did I mention blood. Why must you assume that pain be accompanied by blood loss? I am offended for all nonbloody injuries.

Now I'm wounded! You made so much of your supposed injury that I merely assumed it must've been of some consequence. Now I find all your maladies are internal!

Oh for crying out loud! Now I can't mention sausage gravy without someone I'm nearly related to making noises and impugning my food choices. Last night it was PEA SOUP with dkw, now this!
It is so offensive to push your Southern sausage and gravy over biscuit-eating ways on the rest of us, Bob. Some of us butter our biscuits, or put creamed chicken over them. You are such a Northist.

Pea soup is luscious. I had some wonderful pea soup for lunch. You pea-soup-hating Ws offend me.

The fact that you blame me for your obvious goat-neglect . . . well, I just don't have the words to describe how offended I am.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Do you know how much it harms my sensitive soul that I am not even worth a few words to you???

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

I am also offended by your need to double-punctuate the end of your sentence. Surely a ! or a ? would have been sufficient?

Tammy, if you can't understand this, thank an instructional psychological theory! Offensive indeed!
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Bob, you continue to harp on the instructional psychology thing, which is offensive due to the obvious fact that you never got to be offended by my offense over your gravy and biscuit-eating ways, and are therefore transferring that offense onto this one. Please keep old offenses out of the current offense!
Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
How dare you deny my right to nurse an offense until it becomes all-consuming! Besides, how do you know I'm expressng my warehoused offense in this manner? Does your presumptiousness know no bounds?

Have you even TRIED to say that last sentence out loud? My word, man, tongue twisters offend my entire being!
Furthermore, the word "presumptiousness" has more letters (almost) than the other words in the sentence combined! How presumptious of the word "presumptious!"

I happen to enjoy puns, as you would know IF you paid attention to who posts in the pun threads. Not from me will you hear, "Just as the bun is the lowest form of wheat, so is the pun the lowest form of wit"!

Posted by ginette (Member # 852) on :
And I find it highly offensive that you deliberately misread my post, because I was clearly stating that Xavier didn't know anything about the group he DOES belong to, so please do read more carefully.

Not to speak for Bob, but as a person who posts here a every so often, I am deeply offended, Rabbit, that you think this is a GAME. The title does not say "I take offense-another game." It is not a statement, it is a rhetorical question: "I take offense--another game???? The four question marks beg the answer "Certainly NOT another game." I thought you,of all people, would pick that up.

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Oh, it peeves you does it? And yet, you do not even add the "s" in "misquote?" And do not mention that "resuscitation" should ALSO have a "C?" I am so offended by the state of a world that has such disrespect for the "s" sound!!

I'm deeply hurt that you would criticize someone's noble and selfless attempt to transcribe some of the previously unwritable sounds produced by human mouths.
Posted by Sartorius (Member # 7696) on :
What, Uncle Orson plays "Love at Home" on the piano and we're all supposed to be friends? Criticism is a normal, healthy part of human interaction, and as a writer you should understand that. Shame on you, sir, for trying to supress the discussion of controversial material.
(This is so fun.)
Posted by Verily the Younger (Member # 6705) on :
How dare you tell him what he can and can't suppress on his own forum! He gave us this forum out of the goodness of his heart, and here you come along and try to tell him how to run it? I'm disgusted!
Posted by kaioshin00 (Member # 3740) on :
Absurd! Anyone daring to enter this mudslinging thread is liable to be offended, even if it be Mr. Card. I'm dissapointed that you make exceptions, verily.

You know, some people enjoy having a positive outlook on life. It's too bad you feel the need to suck the joy out of it.

What is wrong with parties? They give some people reason to live. Some people live for parties, drugs, sex, and/or miscellanous. Oh and the thing about emotion....smilies are the best way to do anything, so there! Posted by Megan (Member # 5290) on :

mimsie, I looked at it and was like meh I couldn't think of anything funny to pick on.
If it's rote offense you want phoned in: Mimsie, I am SO offended that you had the nerve to _____! How dare you ____ and ________! You are a _____!

mimsies, I'm offended that you killed the thread.

Morbo, im disappointed in your terminology. I hope that threads don't "die". I'd like to think that if it not posted on for a length of time, it is not lost but stored happily with all the other abandoned threads in eternal bliss.

Why on earth do you feel the need to use multiple punctuation marks? A single question mark would have gotten your point across just fine.

I don't appreciate your sarcasm on this matter, you know.
Posted by starlooker (Member # 7495) on :
I am, in fact, a her and not a him. CRash, you could've corrected Valentine014 on this matter rather than using your post for some unimportant and facetious criticism.

Star, this is the "take offense" thread game, not the "PC, boring gender correctness" thread game. CRAsh's offense-taking was just fine.

I am offended that you disrespected the "take offense" thread by not spelling it with capitalisation.

As a pig, I find your statement insulting. Bah! Phrases like "some of my best friends are pigs" just shows inner bigotry! Why must they have YOUR approval to be considered respectful?!?!
Posted by Morbo (Member # 5309) on :
I'm offended that the pig card was played here. We don't need ad porkinem attacks.
Posted by kaioshin00 (Member # 3740) on :
I dont understand how one could even consider making a name such as "Morbo," where 2/5 of the characters are vowels. The alphabet, which has 26 characters total, only has 5 vowels. Therefore only less than 1/5 should be a vowel, and distinct ones at that. Morbo has over double this expected ratio.
It's names like yours that make me want to get more invovled in vowel rights movements. I hope you're happy. Posted by Morbo (Member # 5309) on :
I'm amusingly offended that you don't know that vowels have a higher probability of use in any given word than consonants, so a 5/26 ratio is never obtained, on average. . . besides, your name has a 1/2 ratio. Are you going to boycott your own name?
Fght th pwr!

Sympathy for dial-up? What's wrong with it, I'd like to know? I am a firm supporter/user, thanks very much, and to refer to it in such a manner is quite offending.

What is wrong with toilets? I do some of my best thinking there and find it offensive that you have a problem with the throne.
Posted by JLM (Member # 7800) on :
How dare you compare a toilet with a throne. A true throne is a highly respected symbol of a monarch's authority, while a toilet is a crap bowl.
Posted by Morbo (Member # 5309) on :
I am offended that anyone is still a monarchist toady in this day and age. Monarchs and their thrones have rightly been relegated to the dung heap of history, so I applaud Dr. Evil's crapper nomenclature. Viva la revolucion!

Good job. Reminding me of Monarch Butterflys, and how SO MANY of them are killed, just for their furry pelts. Now I have to go off in a corner and cry *runs away*.

I cannot believe you Morbo. First you go off for a couple of weeks and act like it's our fault. Then you use my own personal Graemlin. The is mine. If you look real hard there's a copyright in their, and it's all mine. It goes with the name you see.

What??? How can you even say that! I thought that was one of the best arrangements of graemlins I've ever seen. Furthermore, the compulsion to arrange graemlins is a legitimate condition acknowledged by the medical community at large, and there are several experimental drugs being made *right now* to treat it.
Posted by kaioshin00 (Member # 3740) on :

Posted by kaioshin00 (Member # 3740) on :
Do you really need to sign your name at the end of each post. Does the bold "Enigmatic" on the left of your post not suffice to let the reader know who it is posting? ARE YOU EVER HAPPY??!!
Posted by Enigmatic (Member # 7785) on :
Way to take offense in the most predictable way possible; that's so typically mainstream. I just knew some unimaginative soulless corporate drone would go for the signature thing.

I take offense with your implication that people who are red in the face are also ill-dispositioned.

Are you saying that he is foul-tempered and prone to angry outbursts?
Posted by TL (Member # 8124) on :
