Why are people on here so easily offended?

Question

Is it your home life? Is it the fact that you have subpar intelligence? I am here to help you like Dr. Phil.

All I do is casually throw out a question about the average person being a moron, and I get bombarded with worthless insults. Most of them are half-coherent, which is rather ironic in itself.

But to all the people, I say this: Please don't be angry with me or excessively defensive. I am here to help you--as in those with above average IQs--with your issues. (The ones with subpar intelligence are beyond help. Have a nice day!)

To the second poster: I'm glad you can figure out what "BCH" means. You're such a genius. Here, have a banana.

Answer 1

Some of us aren't. But those who are "easily offended" can
be split into two groups: those who are just generally stupid,
and those who have some pet peeve issues on which they're
overly sensitive. The latter probably respond well in other areas.

Answer 2

Because you are very offensive. Putting people down in order to make yourself feel better shows not only lack of character but how little you think of yourself.
Did you get so little attention as a child that you feel the need to act out to get attention? It sounds like you need more help than you actually have to offer.
Why do you care if they are offended anyway, why are you even here? I am sure you have much better things to do.

And no I am not a stalker, just curious, it's morbid curiosity like not being able to stop looking at a traffic accident. You are a strange creature.

Answer 3

I can't believe that you are actually asked that question. You go on to a web site (Full of opinionated people ((including your self))and espouse your views on your grandiose intelligence, and the substandard IQ's of everyone else around you. Then you have the gall to act surprised when the people that you intentionally inflamed with you ego rant, come back at you with scorn and derision. I'm beginning to believe that your opinion of your intelligence (and self) are a little exaggerated. Have a nice day. :-]>

Answer 4

I dont understand why people get so offended on here. They have their choice of what questions they read and answer, and if they don't like it they dont have to answer. Or if someone asks a question, they should expect some answers to oppose what they think. I think that was the point of having yahoo answers on here, to let people share their opinion and intellect whether it is offensive or truly helpful.

Answer 5

Yeah, but too bad he couldn't spell it.

The problem is that the average person doesn't think he is a moron.

Perhaps you should be nicer to all people. Just because you think you are smarter than most doesn't mean that you know everything!

Answer 6

Most people these days are overly sensitive. By the sound of it you too seem to have a problem or two. Perhaps we can help you as well.

Answer 7

Your phrasing of your question and subsequent comments are so benign I must assume you are dribbling with tongue in cheek. No one can actually be that inane accidentally. I do hope you won't be offended if I don't request your "Dr. Phil" assistance.

Answer 8

Don't be so mean to them. Who will clean the pool, clean the house, change the baby if we dis them? I know it's hard at times but on here you need to dumb it down. In my day they were called accelerated classes I took them and taught them. Most fun I ever had.

Answer 9

People are easily offended anywhere. Here the anonymity allows them to lash back.
If you are so smart, why no picture or avatar?

Answer 10

You are SMART!
Apollo!
