Dont you hate it when people say things like "no offense" or "not to be racist"?

Question

It just gets on my nerves.

If you're racist, be racist.

If you think someone is ugly, why do you feel the need to cover it up, or try to make it sound less offensive.

People will say things like

"No offense, but you look horrible"

If someone said that to me, how am I NOT supposed to be offended?

I was just reading an answer to a question on here.

Some girl said that someone came up to her and said

"You ugly as h**l"

and some girl answer like this, "I'll quote it"

"you ugly as h**l sounds like something black people say

not being racists but if they are

im sure you can think of other ways to offend them"

First of all, that IS racist, and why would you just put all black people in one category? Anyway, all I'm saying is be who you are. Racist people make themself look more racist when they try to defend there racist ways. It's sad.

Answer 1

im use to it, they just say those things so a person want report them.

Answer 2

Okay.  You do make some good points but your viewpoint is incredibly naive and simplistic.

You did ask for it.

Answer 3

im like that 2 i dont like when people say that to me

Answer 4

This is the result of political correctness gone bad. Or to the extreme

I remember saying there's too many immigrants in this country that can't speak English. I was told that I was racist. So I said fine whatever, I couldn't care less it's true.

Answer 5

Wow, you just made such a difference with your question.  I'm sure that stuff will literally die out now.

Answer 6

People usually say "no offense" because they know 9 times out 10 what they are about to say or ask would be  taken as or seen as offensive by most people.

No offense but why are you so fat?  Please!
