«We have to stop this recent culture of people telling us they’re offended and expecting us to give a f***»

Hahaha! Ricky Gervais is an absolute delight! He says the most outrageous of things often times, but hey! Who’s hating?! If anything, he’s being so darned honest! Lol
I’ve learnt that any who’s a crowd pleaser and looking to be in on everyone’s good side, will sooner or later; buckle under the strains and pressures, and the end result cannot be good! Toxic and very unhealthy! You can’t please everyone, so why try?! *shrugs* LOL
You can’t please all of the people all of the time, but you can please some of the people some of the time 😀
Hehehe! That’s a pretty sly and sneaky way of putting it Don, but I do well to please myself first and foremost before any else! That works for me like crazy, you’ve absolutely no idea! Lol
LOL, not even my words, so I can only half take responsibility for that one ! … the other one I have on the top of the blog is “those who mind don’t matter (and those who matter don’t mind)”
I must say he find his use of language offensive – well someone has to. 🙂
LOL, probably best take that up with him then, I guess …I try and keep bad language to a minimum on my blog, but occasionally something’s worth saying that merits it …
I often find that I disagree with something that another person says or believes however it doesn’t mean that I am offended. I think when you say you are offended it shows that you have very little control over yourself.
Very much agreed Suz … self-discipline …

Love this
Thanks for the reblog 😀
To be offended are often used by manipulators, who need to have the control.
Yes, I agree Irene … we can only change ourselves so we’re not controlled by it …
Yes, we need not to allow anyone to control us 🙂
You are right Irene, life’s too short …
He’s the man!

Thank you Ricky Gervais!
He’s a star for sure, he definitely went up in my estimation when I saw this on a friend’s page on facebook 😀
For sure! Great quote, and very true.
😀
Love him! It’s so true…here’s a tip – if I get offended by someone I just f**k off/switch off/tune out!!
Exactly, like it hun, pretty much the same for me … good advice 😀

Thanks for the reblog 😀
I have to agree, offense is often a form of soft control. It allows others to our dictate behavior to achieve their own harmony at the expense if our own. At this point we have groups that love to manufacture outrage at every little thing.
Very much agreed my friend … I think Ricky also said – fuck ’em !
So sorry! I tried to give this five stars, but my fat thumb has trouble with my tiny phone screen (~.^) 👍👍👍👍👍
Don’t worry about it … shit happens !
Let’s hope he’s not offended
LOL … not at all !
