Ok, but even so, it's just the misuse of offensive. Why would a person be offended if they're not being insulted? Are atheists offended there are people who are religious? If you like Bach are you insulted that I think he's overrated?
Oh, I see. You're saying that the person had his/her nose out of joint, rather than actually being offended, and for lack of another word to use, state 'I'm offended'?

I think the difficulty with this is that if another person says I've offended them, that's all I have to go by sometimes. People who are offended are sometimes either angry or hurt too - I don't care so much about the anger part, but I do care about the hurt bit. I don't like hurting people.
