You created this thread solely to insult those generations younger than you. And I am calling you on it.Gee, Paul, maybe you should have read (*cough*) the entire article and not just the excerpt. This ain't about GenX.
To: Texas Mom
STOP LAUGHING! Paul is CALLING YOU ON IT, do you HEAR???
;D
To: Texas Mom
Paul C. Jesup....clearly ENJOYS being offended.
To: Texas Mom
I look at 9-11 and I'm still offended about that. We buckle under at the thought we might offend someone. I for one am getting tired of the whole PC BS.
YES!
Proud to be NOT PC.

Paul C. Jesup....clearly ENJOYS being offended. Yep! seems that is the case.
To: Paul C. Jesup
(sarcasm) When did the FR start letting children join. Actually I was wondering the same thing.
To: Paul C. Jesup
Dunno. Since at least 2/27/2001, is my guess.

PC is nothing but censorship.

My personal assessment of many in todays world-"If you can't meet the standard, whine loudly, claim your victimhood and they will lower the standard to meet you"
Unfortunately it works for the Democratic Voters

Mr Jessup- I am deeply offended by your juvenile reaction to this thread. Texas Mom Posted it and as far as I can see made no comment as to age groups. I have seen plenty of pre boomer, boomers and post boomers that fit this article and I she allude to that in one o her replies to you. You told her to get off her High horse. You may want to take your own advice.

"I'm offended" has become the all-purpose cop out. No need to deal with ideas. Facts and history are irrelevant. The sole criterion is your mental state, that your paper-thin skin has been pierced. You don't want a discussion. You demand a groveling apology and a promise never to be offensive -- i.e., to challenge dogma -- again.
Doesn't this just about nail it where it's at?
To: Texas Mom
You bet

Maybe we could just use Mr. Jesup as a great example.
To: 5Madman2
I find this thread to be an insult, for the title of the thread: 'Being Offended is Substitute for Thinking.'
You cannot insult a idiot, because that idiot will never realize that he or she is being insulted.
Intelligence is require for someone to be insulted. Only someone who can actually think can realize that he or she is being insulted.
