When people state opnions as facts (in regards to my family and friends) an example a co-worker of mine was telling people that a certain manger (who I'm friends with) was sleeping with some of the girls who work the front desk. ( We also both work there) 1 is a good friend of mine and I was dating one at the time. She basicly called all the front desk girls w***** in the process and made him look really bad. She had no facts to base this claim off of but was telling people that it in fact was true. Oh how I agree with that, and what's even worse id that when YOU correct them and explain the actual facts and back it up with proofs and sources, they simply reply "well that's your opinion". No it's not you f'n dickweed, it's fact! I just brought you solid evidence! And YOU were the one who just tried to pass a rumor/your opinion as fact!

Another thing that offends me, without going into detail, is when I have my political opinion cut down by others who can't remember that we all have our own opinions for a reason, and my opinion doesn't mean any less than yours.

People who can't observe the two minutes silence for those who died in wars when in public and just carry on working or shopping.
It's doesn't quite offend me but I hat it when old people expect me to agree with their casual racism.

Other than this, not much. It would have to take a severe personal insult to offend me. Trust me, my last name has a synonym for "penis" in it. I've built up a tolerance.

Homophobic ignorant remarks especially when they're so freely proclaimed outloud in public and pro-Gay bashing sentiments.
Damning prejudgement of people who are in a hard situation and circumstance like drug addiction and psychological illness. These people are hurt. What they really need is some sensitivity not the creepy untrust face.
People having bad attitudes towards people who are street musicians. They are more than you think who are making a honest living and it's pretty vibrant lifestyle too. Most street musicians I've known are cool peaceful non-aggressive folk. I did it off'n'on for 5 years in Toronto and Montreal and on average I made $30+ dollars a day/night and I''m just doing my own thing. I'm not even playing anything popularized just my own music. It's a fun life. I was going to do it again with the World Cup coming playing around bars but an acting gig in film has popped up this June. yay for me. SNOBBERY. I actually met my first wrestle snob just recently. Just because I liked a different kind of match than he did. Made me mad think about for days.
I learned being a wrestling fan I think it's unfair to prejudge people based on what Sport or entertainment they like.

Nothing. There are things that make me angry, and things that I dislike, but I make it a point not to get offended. Getting offended is basically getting mad at another persons thoughts whether they be put on film, in print or said out loud. Getting offended is really counter productive, and usually ends up adding more validity to the thought or action that offended you in the first place. The best thing to do if you feel strongly about something is to form some arguments as to why you believe it to be wrong, and then try to discredit what ever it is you think is wrong.

People who think they're entitled to go through life without being offended, but have no problem bashing people who don't agree with them.

People who can't seem to grasp the idea of other people coexisting in the same space when out in public. You're in a store, walking down the street, whatever, move your ass and watch where you're going. Don't take up the entire sidewalk and move at a snail's pace. People are trying to get past you. Either move you hump or step aside, and don't act all snotty when someone says "excuse me". I can't tell you how many times a day I have to dodge some jackoff because they can't bother to watch where they're going when walking down the street or exiting a building. Furthermore, if you're in line ahead of someone, that is not your personal time to be the center of attention. Make your transaction and move it. The cashier doesn't care, and neither do the people behind you. You're not special. thank you. as a cyclist I can't count how many times I get stuck behind someone who can't pay attention to me being right behind them and get the hell out of my way, even when I've politely asked them to step aside. it takes 2 seconds, I don't see where the problem is. also I've been nearly run over countless times because some idiot who never should have been given a license just decides to drive through an intersection without even bothering to see that I was trying to cross. it's like nobody ever remembers the "look both ways" lesson you learn as a child. I also get offended when NAMBLA or other such groups try pretending their anything like the gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgendered groups and are just being discriminated against. there is a world of difference between what two consenting adults do and what you sick bastards do to children. as someone who was molested myself as a child it utterly sickens me when anyone tries to defend child molestation.

Sex out of context. I'm not really a prude, but outside of porn, I don't like it being brought up. I also don't care for the way things have gone where everyone is a lot harsher about things than they used to be. Take a look at a Dean Martin Roast and then a Comedy Central one and you'll get the gist of what I mean.

Two of my manager are in there 60's and all they have ever done is work and they talk to me like I'm an idiot. UGHHHHH. I wish i had money to go back to school

- Animal abuse, and apathy about it. - When people take someone's word for it at your expense without bothering to consider your side of the story.

Censorship.
Which is funny, because people who get offended by something will often try to censor it.
"That joke was homophobic! It should be taken off TV!"
Really? You just can't change the channel? Who are you to say what I should or shouldn't watch?
That is the only thing I find offensive - when people attempt to make choices for other people.
Other than that - I don't really get offended. To be offended by someone you have to give a damn about what they think - and I don't.

1. People throwing money at me like I'm a stripper. (I'm a cashier) 2. Something I can't elaborate on because it violates forum rules, but it involves a gross misunderstanding of what the forefathers intended.

I grew up with my mother and my aunt and they were two very big "anti-men" women. My mom was especially bad. I cannot even begin to tell you how many anti-men rants I heard my whole life. Men are pigs, men are scum, men are no good, men are untrustworthy, etc. Some men are awful, but not all of them are and I hate hearing some girl say "ah, all men are X".
I also hate the hypocrisy of the media. You gain ten pounds and it's like the world has come to end because of it and you're nothing but a big fat over-eating hog. Lose the weight and you're accused of starving yourself and being unhealthy. What women go through especially thanks to the media is terrible.
I also hate beer ads. Big load of BS they all are.

I used to post on Public Enemy's message board. When you would disagree with something or someone over say a police shooting or the meaning of the word racism. You were called racist. It didn't matter that you were simply pointing out the dictionary definition of the word implies that any race can be racist. Over there racism only exist one way and is only institutional.
Racist people also offend me. And I really hate it when they make those stupid jokes then get offended that I don't laugh at it.
People in exotic animal communities that look down their noses at people who don't know the scientific names for animals.
