Why y’all got to be so offensive? Hopefully that question does not offend anyone.

Same crap goes on at another forum I've been active on for more than 20 years. Their posting policies are rigidly enforced on just about exactly half of the spectrum. Calling them out or complaining works about as well there as it does here.

Agree with a lot of what is being said, but I also see just about everyone on this website getting offended in one way or another. Even some of the pseudo tough guys cry about some really silly stuff.

So if I'm offended I should go somewhere else, but if I'm censored I should campaign for rule changes here? Gotcha. 
For years I've deleted say 9 of 10 comments I typed (comebacks) and still do, and now I don't post in maybe 1 of 10 I try to keep up with w/o adding to. I could offend a lot of people without breaking the rules, but don't really care to.
So we can skip on so called etiquette, reading all posts in a thread before commenting, relevant titles, etc. It's easy to be offended and read on elsewhere, but it's also fun to sit back and watch.

Old grind, We should create a “getting offended easily is against the rules” forum And have a contest.
Real and pseudo tough guys can rip each other then apply a “j/K” or a bunch of smiley emojis to “tamp down” the offensive behavior and see who lasts the longest!
Dont rip my idea, it could be fun!

It seems "stick and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me" was also thrown out with the bathwater during the wussification of America.
Now it's "you are allowed to have your own opinion as long as it is the same as mine".
With the advent of the internet and social media, everyone now thinks their opinion actually matters.

That's funny because when I watch TV or get on the internet it seems like anything goes!
