Offense is subjective. I take offense to things you might not.

And people offended by everything is one of those things that I'm offended by.

I'm a free speech absolutist. I feel that society should dictate what's acceptable to say, not a government or corporate entity. I follow SE's rules, for example, but I still feel they should have no right to tell me what I can't say. One should be polite enough to not say something horrible, and ostracizing from society for being an asshole is good enough.
