I'm definitely seeing where you're coming from now. I don't doubt that you're a good dude, but only because I used to assume that people would understand that I'm a good dude too. A couple years ago a new friend started calling me out on my shit. My first reaction was, "come on, you KNOW I'm a good guy." It's taken me a while to learn that it doesn't always come across that way, and I can't assume that people, even close friends, understand my sarcasm. I'm not saying you shouldn't offend people. I agree that the brainwashed do need to be offended. I'm just saying you gotta stay self-aware.
