I was playing an online game once a few years ago when I thought that swearing was the work of the devil. Someone showed me something really cool and I said "Holy cow!" You know, to avoid being yelled at for saying "Holy shit" or "Holy crap". You know what the person said to me?
"I don't worship cows."
"What?"
"I believe in God. Cows are not of my religion."
"So?..."
"Say anything like that or I'll kick you."

A few years later, it's a few weeks ago from this present day. I say "I'm about to have supper." A person I was teamed up with said,
"What?"
"Supper. I'm about to go eat some supper."
"You mean dinner."
"Um... yeah."
"Supper is what Jesus had. The Last Supper."
"And I'm about to eat supper now too. So, bye."
"Wait. Don't go, Mr. Christ."
"Wtf?"
"You must be Jesus. Eating Supper."
"What are you talking about? You aren't even making any sense."
At this point, I think the guy called a GM on me. Which didn't really matter because I logged out to eat 'dinner' anyway.

What is wrong with some people? So, now I'm not allowed to ever say "holy cow" or "supper" anymore? How are people offended by that kind of stuff? Did anything like this ever happen to you guys?

Edit: Changed title to "Strange Offenses".

    Those things are the dumbest things I've heard in quite some time. But then again, people are always like that.

    Behold the dull edge of online gaming wit. Where every man, woman, and child is a comedian and critics can be dismissed with but a string of obscenities and racial slurs.

    next time you offend someone, say:
    "I'm offend by your offense!"
    I always wanted to say this to someone, but i can never seem to offend anyone for some reason

    I played world of warcraft and since i picked alliance i missed out on barrens chat so in an effort to experience barrens chat I started saying whatever was on my mind in ironforge. Then 1 1/2 years later came LFG chat and well i stopped spamming ironforge and started spamming LFG. Then they took that away and I went to Shatt chat (lol shat chat). During my time playing WoW i was banned atleast 15 times for various things i have said. A few being outrageous as doing a shitting dick nipples RP and some being very very tame as not even talking about anyone in particular, but the words "fucking nerd" popped up and I got banned for it. Well, I never tried to fight any of those as the same people that banned me (blizzard) also for some odd reason saw fit to give me 2 keys for the burning crusade beta (some 2 months before burning crusade came out). Since I quit wow sometime in january though I doubt i would get any wrath of the lich king keys and if they where planning on sending them to me i probably would sell them on ebay because wow isn't the game it used to be.

    The only good response to that would be: "Yes, I am Jesus. I've been sent back to Earth because you touch yourself."

    Best reply is, "If I'm Jesus, who the f*ck are you to question me?"

    The simple truths of the world
    -For everything that exists, there is someone offended by it
    -For everything that exists, there is someone allergic to it
    -For everything that exists, there is a sexual fetish for it

    Knowing that, I don't care if I offend, I don't care if I send someone into anaphalactic (sp?) shock, and if they get off on it, I still don't care.

    Strange offenses I make: somehow, angry and flaming gamers actually are easily infuriated by being cheerful, but responding all the while. Try it sometime.

    If at all possible ignore them, mute them or ban them because they are not worth anyones time!

    People that gives me the shits are usually on game shows or the news saying stuff like only God can judge me, only God can speak to me, I have found God! (after being in jail for a record short time.)

    They stop doing it when you don't acknowledge their existence!

    I had one today. Sadly I was at Wal Mart, the watering hole for white trash and assclowns (funny how you can put asa and any noun together and it will be a suitable insult-assgaf, assfork, assnapkin) and my sister felt the need to touch everything in the store, amazed at the low prices (blah) and one time when she lagged behing me I said "come! bad dog!" and some shopper nearby got mad at me because her dog dies today. Well for one I have never met you before in my life and will probably never see you again and 2ndly I had no prior notion that you even owned a dog let alone it died on you so please mind your own business and stop blabbering to strangers becuase they offended you and had absolutly no way of knowing so. Or wear a big sticker on your back.

    What are you some gay black lama? I think I stole that from PA.

    On Youtube some moron started going on to me about spelling when he used L337, bad l337. God even XboxLive is out-done by haters on Youtube.

    This happens a lot in MMOs. Chiefly in MMOs, in fact. Thing is: I don't try to act sophisticated in a game where people are using axes to kill Murlocs. I come off sounding like a drunken monkey. Some people try too hard, and nit-pick at everything you say. For instance:

    WarriorDood: "Attack him! We're gonna die!!!"
    DbagMagexx: "Ehem, we are 'going to' die."
    WarriorDood: "You son of a bitch! He's using his lasers, shield us!"
    DbagMagexx: "A bitch is a dog, my friend."
    WarriorDood has died.
    DbagMagexx: "Serves you right."
    DbagMagexx has died.

    Hah, that's not normal in real life conversation either, although, it sounds like the person in question was either joking with you, or just really wierd. Gratz to you though, 'standard' typing in MMO's often seems to be made of Leetspeak rather than actual words, not that a little of it isn't okay now and then for timesaving sake.

    I can't think of a specific example, but I've found a profound dislike of people who take offence to well...everything, and I've met a few unfortunately. "Hey, that's a nice hat!" "Nice hat? 'Nice' hat?! What's that supposed to mean?!"

    Somebody once took offence because I called their mage outfit a "robe".

    According to him, a robe is something that only priests or women may wear, and he is neither. He then went on for about 5 sentences about how offended he was that I was being derogatory to the clergy by implying that anyone could wear robes. Just for fun, after he had finished his 70-second long rant I said:

    "Sorry, was AFK. Repeat please?"

    You should have either sung a requiem as powerfully as you can, if you've got a good voice. Should make her realise how ridiculous she was being. OR tell her you're going to call the police and that killing animals without special training is actually against the law.

    I hate it when people act as if you made a personal, deliberate attack on them that you had thought up days before, waiting for the right moment to strike.

    I like trying to type properly.
    1, it means you never have to repeat what you said becuz u cudnt udrndsnd wut the prsn sayd
    2, it makes you look smarter. Saying "I have a gun, haha" instead of "i haz gun LOL"
    3, it's good practice for writing papers. I can write 1,000 words in about 10 minutes.
    4, people don't get offended for typing "gonna" instead of "going to". Though I see no problem with "gonna" anyway.

    Those people were either idiots being seriously offended about something really insignificant, or twats being smart asses. I can't tell because I've actually met people who have the kind of stupid that makes my brain hurt, and would actually be offended by the phrase "holy cow."
