Pretty much when my family question my social life in that in their view it's not "normal".

I don't give a danm that I'm anti social since I perfectly fine the way I am and no one can tell me how to run my life other than me.
"normal" isn't even real, only a mere illusion.
Nope [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normality_%28behavior%29].

Ignorance.

Or well, no, it doesn't offend me, it just pisses me off.
I don't get offended, I either get upset on a personal level or I don't give a fuck. I think getting "offended" is just rubbish, it doesn't really mean nor do anything, it's just another way of acting like your feelings are more precious than everyone else's and everyone should treat you like you're made of glass and shut up about what they think.
Your feelings aren't that precious. They're fucking not. Calm your tits.
Instead of bundling up in a little ball, why don't you straighten up and stand up to the people who offended you? Or, if you don't want to spur any debate just walk away from the fucking situation.

It. Is. Not. Hard.

It doesn't annoy me in the slightest, after all, nobody can know everything, and ignorance can easily be remedied, provided there's a will.

Stupidity, on the other hand...

Well, if you've read the rest of my post you would've noticed it doesn't offend me either, just piss me off.

When I say ignorance I'm talking willfull ignorance, people who refuse to listen to reason and then spur a load of fucking crap instead, then demand special treatment because they get butthurt if anyone attempts to correct their stupid arses.

I did read the rest of your post, and I did use the word "annoy" and not "offend" :)

But yeah I see your point. Insisting on ignorance is surely something that makes me go *eyeroll*

Right now? People who say that smoking withdrawal symptoms are all in my head. The people who say that are the ones that never smoked or the ones that smoked a little and quitted with no symptoms in effect. They just don't know how hard it is.

It's been a week and half since I've stopped smoking. The first two weeks are very hard. (I know, it's my third attempt). You really need people who support you and no assholes that thinks it's all in your head or this kind of person.

Willful ignorance. Anyone who refuses to even look at something that conclusively contradicts their position just disgusts me.
I feel the same way, bro. Hell, I'm friends with a willfully ignorant (albeit mildly so) person. We get along just fine, but sometimes his stubbornness just gets the better of him.

I thought I was alone.
I also hate people who try to be really politically correct and bend over backwards to accommodate people. I'm like, get a life and grow a pair.

Other than that, hippies. They bother me with their pot-smoking ways. :D
even though i spawned this topic, i do agree. look at this:

A lot of things (EDIT) bother me, but what I take most personally is if someone insults a friend of mine. especially if there's a derogatory comment meant by it.

...

though I always get a bit irked if I see a guy hit a girl.

People that claim to hate racism and act as if they are guilt free of the term. It's a subjective, overly opinionated, perspective filled term. I know plenty of people who are "racist" that in truth hate no one. They just can't stand the quirks and minor annoyances expressed by certain groups. We're all guilty of them.
That's not the definition of the term 'racism'. People that usually hates racism hates the negative effects it can have. You might be thinking prejudice, which is something we are all guilty of, good or bad (and can also have negative effects).

This, a thousand times, this. People wanna complain about political correctness, never realizing that they just might be polite. It's like the sole reason they hate PO is to be a jerk without consequence.

I'm offended by ignorant masses that form the sea of people inhabiting the media in the country i live in, USA. The morons, media, and politicians give us who don't care about patriotism and see the corruption a bad name. what you said and the people who are greedy and just plain a-holes

How many people can post the same damn thread over and over without even bothering to check to see if other people already started it. (Maybe I'm just annoyed with how many "what are you doing in Skyrim" threads there are right now. There's a search bar for a reason)

Extrapolating this goes to how I hate people who expect that going into a scenario in the exact same way more than once will yield different results. Humans evolved to observe, rationalize, and modify our behavior to adapt. Blindly going about something multiple times in the same ineffective way insults what it means to be human.

That's exactly what I am saying: Everyone has their own definition as to what racism "is" in their minds. It doesn't matter who defines it, what categorizes it, etc. It has no definition set in stone.

Also, hating religion for the sake of it and atheist that talk down to people who do believe in a certain religion. You don't like organized religion, or religion in general for that matter, fine, but shut the f*ck about telling me why I'm "wrong" for believing in something. I don't go to atheist and talk/type down to them, I'd ask that they do the same.
You don't, and I respect you for that, but unfortunately admitting you're an atheist can get you scorn like you wouldn't believe in an area like mine. Seriously, when you're yelled at by a group of people saying you're the worst kind of person in the world there's something wrong. It works both ways, is all I'm saying.
Yes I realize that its not one sided. Someone typed it before, but I'll repeat it, "your religious beliefs are like a penis, keep it to yourself and don't force it down somebody's throat". I don't like when either group makes an @ss out of themselves by insulting the opposing group.
Well... let me see if I can say it in a way that doesn't make me sound like a git...

The reason (I think) atheists and anti-religion people tend to be more vocal on the internet and in smaller groups is what I could equate to the "trample effect". On the internet, a person can vocalise their opinions and beliefs, and in small groups they can say something of the like and have it be considered rather than get a dozen of aforementioned "you're the worst thing ever and you worship Satan despite not believing in him" people start verbally ripping into you with stuff you feel is nonsense or worse when they start getting physical. Internet speakers mean they can either skip a message or just say their point then leave, letting those they believe to be wrong just get angry and post "God will smite you" without a second thought to it. Very much aware that is a harsh generalisation but again, I live in a place with more churches than restaurants and grocery stores combined.

As for insulting the opposing groups... well, I could explain that from the atheist perspective but I think it would come across as making an arse out of myself.

Well, you see, the definition that I was working from is the definition written in the dictionary. It has a set in stone definition. The problem here is (and to this end, I agree with you) that people tend to distort the actual definition. Racism is a serious problem that can negatively affect others, but too many people cry it out when it isn't necessary. When it actually is an issue, it tends to get ignored.

People who jump down my throats with criticisms or "good for you!"'s as soon as I mention I'm vegan (in context), without me doing anything to invite it.

Or the "OHMYGOD, WHAT DO YOU EAT!?!?!?!?" response. I get it every. fucking. time. Or especially someone who says with an edge of smugness "What about protein and B12?" Yeah, it's been my diet for years, I /totally/ wouldn't know what those were or how to get them. *facedesk*
