I'm very easily offended, but on the other hand I'm not offended by every little thing. When I get offended you can tell because I'm not one to hide the fact that someone just offended me.

1 or 2, probably. I'm really not an easy person to offend. If I know that someone is trying too offend me then I'll simply disregard it; they're making an attempt to upset me and I'm neither going to listen to what they're saying nor give them the satisfaction. And if someone said something offensive without meaning to, then why even bother being offended? It wasn't intended and probably slipped out before any real thought was put into it so I just shrug it off and move on.

I can generally be offended only by people trying to pull fun at my expense, by telling an offensive or rude joke which they knew I'd take personally, for example. I spoke briefly about something like that in a blog entry I posted once, although with no real specifics or detail. But I think it describes pretty well when I believe someone has made a joke one level too far and offended me with it. linky. It's ironic really, I actually say in that blog post that you probably shouldn't be offended but it's hard not to be (for me anyway) when someone does something like that. *shrug*

I guess i'd say i'm a 6-7
I'm not usually offended but if you say the right thing when im the right mood then i'll probably never speak to you again.

On the internet definitely 0 (not offended at all), because I've literally dealt with thousands of trolls online and I just know pretty much all their "tactics." (Even if they are serious, I know how to react in those cases)

In real life, however, probably 2. I'm still not offended much, but if someone is blatantly ignorant or making fun of me in certain ways that I know I'd get offended, then I'd be mad.

Around a 7. I can brush most things off with ease, but some things really get under my skin, and when that happens, and friendship that may have been formed between me and the offending party will be considered null and void. Personal insults particularly offend me, especially when they're made behind my back.

Probably 4-6. I'm not one of the people that gets easily offended. I mean, I'm Jewish, I get people make fun of us, so I don't really mind it. I only get offended when there's things that pisses me off (for example, the Holocaust) and where people are trying to make a joke about it or acting like their a Nazi.

I mean, it's a tragedy, why joke over it?

Attempting to offend me just gets my attention. Will usually fail.
Early grade school had a few 'bully' types that verbally teased me. Enough so that that sort of thing just has me "Meh..."

Am embarassed too easy for my liking.

I'm not easily offended, but I am aware of what's offensive and I don't like people being offensive. I can still be hurt. Hurtful things are always hurtful because of the intentions behind them. So while you can call me a name that I've heard before and won't personally be offended by, I'll still feel the hurt you've tried to cause me.

So, I dunno, maybe that does make me easily offended.

It takes a lot to offend me, and it has to come from someone I care about a lot. Otherwise, I'm a pretty chill person.
