"No Offense... But" Comments?

Does it bother you when someone will say. "No offense, but ...."

Like you shouldn't be offended because they said no offense before saying something offensive.

My grammy once told one of my dates. "No offense, but guys who have spiky hair are gay." She didn't understand why he was offended & didn't like her. What's the worst "No Offense" comment you received?

  • when i say no offense, i am saying it to let the writer know that what im about to say is MY OWN OPINION, and i dont want them to take it to heart.

  • For me the comment is like waving a red flag in front of an angry bull!

    If they wish not to offend, they should keep their offensive opinions to themselves.

  • No offense... But you look like someone who sleeps upside down and drinks blood for breakfast.

    No, I'm not even kidding you, someone ACTUALLY told me that once.

    >.<

    Needless to say, I was offended.

  • Whenever someone says "No offense" to me, they always come off as offensive. They may as well have not even said it.

  • Someone once told me "No offense, but you're a super homo."

    Or maybe they were complimenting me, saying I was a gay superhero. Still not quite sure about that.

  • I don't remember the worst one someone has said to me.

    But I HATE when people say that. They think by saying that we're actually NOT going to be offended? Wrong..

    It's quite annoying.

  • Wow at your Grammy, that was...lame of her.

    I've been called a freak but like I care, it's better than being normal which is overrated. Normality doesn't exist anyway.

  • No offense but you've gained weight this past year ugh.

  • One of my grade 8 teachers said I looked like a gerbil and then quickly added "no offence" Yeah.....was not a fun time lol

  • I say it all the time.

    "No offense, but you're a sl*t."

    "No offense, your face is pretty ugly."

    "No offense, but those pants do make you look fat."

    I've said those all...no offense though.
