Our society seems obsessed with not offending other people. Is it possible, in today's society, to be PC 100% of the time? Can you live your life without offending anybody?

If we were 100 percent politically correct, the world would be a mother effing boring place to live. And its getting there.
The whole prince superbowl thing is just absurd.

Impossible- no one could possibly live his/her (see, that's politically correct!) entire life without offending someone in some way.
We should strive to be considerate of others and their feelings.However, at times, we must discuss controversial topics, particularly in educational systems. How else can we learn about such issues as slavery, sexism, prejudice, ethnic and religious hatred, etc.? To be politically correct 100% of the time stifles close examination of the human condition.

I doubt it, we have gone way too far with this politically correct bullsh!t, if somebody gets offended then they have the problem not me. What is next having to order a plain cup of coffee instead of black? People just need to get a little thicker skin, words never hurt anyone.

Great question!
I think that the only way to be 100% PC and inoffensive would be to check your brain, have no opinions, and live in a cave.
Politicians depend on people accepting the whole PC thing, because then they can dictate to us how to think, live and be.
Keep thinking for yourself, and be the best person you can, and you'll be fine!
