Well Grace, here's the deal. When folks WANT to be offended, I oblige, because I'm a really, really nice guy.
I wouldn't want folks to feel offended that I didn't give enough of a shit about them to not offend them!
Some folks just plain beg to be offended. It's their reason for existence. If they aren't being offended by something, then they are nothing in their own eyes. See, folks who want to be offended are WAY too important to themselves, and they think their opinions deserve notice - more so than anyone else's opinions.
So... I notice the living shit out of them.
Think of it as a public service.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
