Jet responded to everyone except me. I am so offended.

you don't need reinforcement, you're already on a similar if not the same page.

I made no reference to pride, however it still stupid in both of those situations. Mostly to the point of why the *** do you care what 1 person says enough to get bothered by it? It's ridiculous and quite frankly stupid to do so.

Like I said earlier, grow up a little. Learn to let go (Let go Luke, let go).
I said nothing about grudges and refusing to let things go. If you were going to assume, assume the offense is fleeting in both cases like it usually would be

if it's a fleeting emotion than getting upset over it in the first place is a waste of time and quite stupid.

So like I said, grow up and get over it.
No being offended would be a normal response and we'd assume one can handle it healthily.

You can keep saying it but just because someone takes offense from words doesn't make them automatically stupid

Do you believe the minor in my second example is an idiot for being offended at the teacher's rudeness?

Being offended by words is a stupid response, regardless if it's "normal" or not, just because something is popular doesn't make it right.

Being offended over words is stupid, in every situation.

Whether the person is stupid or just being stupid it is still stupid.

Yes they are stupid for getting offended by somebody being an idiot.

actions speak louder than words.

scenario:

1. I call your woman a ***, you get mad.

2. I sleep with your woman, you get more mad.

words mean nothing in comparison, people need to grow the *** up.

Neither would hurt me terribly.

in this case I was speaking of most people, then again most people are idiots so that may be the underlying root of the problem.

If you have a deep emotional attachment then being hurt or offended is justified. What is bad about that is how some people feel the other is their property (either consciously or subconsciously) and in that case the person is just stupid.

In the first case it depends on the intent and the situation but getting mad over it is typically pointless.

In the second case I could see somebody getting mad over it, and that should be the response, but not really at the person who porked your woman, but the woman, then again all depends on the situation.

However I don't see where getting offended goes into play when it comes to emotional attachment, defending her honor I could see, but not being personally offended.

I'll admit that's a tricky one there.
(in your former).

No and being offended by words can cause change when it's needed. I bet the teacher wouldn't be doing that daily if the offended party reported them. For all you know the next person that came along might not be strong enough to shrug off such things.

inb4 (then that person is stupid too)

You must understand, Jetaku's primary tool is Ad hominem.

"not strong enough to shrug off such things" then they are a stupid whiny little *** and probably shouldn't ever attempt to live in the real world, and quiet frankly they sound like the *** Muslims who *** about the Olympic symbol and their lolprophet, get the *** over it already, grow up.

So is mine on these forums, and I do not blame him at all.

you have to work with what you're given, but the point still is both of those students are stupid for getting offended, the teacher's a ***, move on with your life.

edit: As S. Hughes said "don't worry about it, he's a ***"

Honestly, no matter how many times I look at it, I don't see anything inappropriate. Even with the Simpsons picture and the .gif, I still don't see it =/

I don't care if they think this is racist too, but Muslims can go *** themselves over ***like this.

Hey guys, the 2010 Olympic logo looks pink to me, and I'm gay, but I'm not a woman and I don't like pink AND DONT WANT PINK BECAUSE ITS DISCRIMINATORY AGAINST HOMOSEXUALS

oh go shut the *** up ><

It should be noted that "Muslims" aren't upset about the logo, but rather Iran's representative to the International Olympic Committee.

And Iran is nucking futs.

Can't be assed reading all 5 pages, but *** 'em. As woefully ***as the 2012 design is, it shouldn't change because they think it looks kinda like something they don't like. That's just pants on head HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE. Let them boycott, the 55 people that they sent to the 2008 olympics will probably just get residency in another country and compete with them. Even though they only won one gold and one bronze.

Are you trying to say:

"Thinking that being upset about this logo is taking it a little too far"

is the same as

"Jewish people are an inferior race, robbing the truly superior Aryan people of their place as rulers of the world"

Because that's what it sounds like.

You could draw a straight line on a blank piece of paper and someone somewhere would throw their arms up in the air and start ranting about how it offends them.

Some people just have nothing better to do in life.

Getting offended at the 2012 Olympic logo is just dumb, although in fairness my 2 year old son has come up with better logos using just his hands and randomly painting. It is a bit ***. I'd almost put money on that it was done late on the Friday afternoon before they were due to show it to the public and someone realised they hadn't started on it yet..."***!! Just make something! Quick!" and here we are a few years later with some *** looneys kicking off about it.

Besides, shouldn't Iran be more worried about getting the ***kicked out of them because they have oil the USA wants secret weapons of mass destruction?

Why am I not surprised, I don't like how Muslim women are forced to cover themselves completely like some kind of wannabe-ninja. But I doubt we`ll see that changing any time soon.

Besides, if someone wants to complain about the logo let them, maybe they`ll replace it with something that actually looks good.

Okay, so what, the US is a giant *** and they're still just our dingleberries. I'd rather be the ***. Just wipe them away and stop letting their mindless opinions matter.
