Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Yâknow, Iâm not too offended by people who actually just say what offends them. I may disagree, but hey: No games. What really offends me is when someone takes offense on behalfâ of some other group. Like âIf I were an Elbonion, I would find that kind of macaroni offensive, so I know itâs offensive.â
Itâs kind of like upside down and backward cultural appropriation.
Well, it does pretty much apply to U.S. Social-Standard Watchdogs. For example book burners of the âNâ word, Iâm American not German â American and wouldnât American-German tend towards mending our tribal separatism?
I am so sick of hearing about politics! Iâm glad that there is a comic that doesnât mention it. I read the comics for enjoyment not to catch up what is happening in Washington DC.
So Pastis went totally PC with the character â definitely not college-aged, or female, non-white and/or covered with piercings, non-traditional dress or hair, or an obvious accent of any kind (unless it was Southern, itâs always okay to make fun of us). He played it safe, and thatâs just hilarious to me.
If only it were that easy.Goodbye all the whineys, the professional offendees and the plain dumbing stupid. Oh, and those without a sense of humour.RAT FOR WORLD PRESIDENT

I think he would have been happier reading âNancyâ; he just seemed like a real âNancyâ boy.

Offended people offend me.
Alien-X about 4 years ago
Actually, feeling offended once in awhile is good for you as it teaches you a sense of values. But being overly offended all the time is just stupid.
Leojim about 4 years ago
Whip me, beat me, offend me all day long.
I like it. ;-)
Caldonia about 4 years ago
Politely telling someone they offended you = âComplainyâ. Okay, Pastis.
TampaFanatic1 about 4 years ago
I say blow them off man! Do not let morons rent space in your head unless they actually affect you in a bad way! They get angrier if you ignore them!
AndreasMartin about 4 years ago
Rat is probably angry he forgot what it was heâd said (so he could say it again and then hit the guy with a mallet for good measure).
Major Matt Mason Premium Member about 4 years ago
Just one wafer thin mint!
Gent about 4 years ago
Well, at least he didnât blow up someone elseâs head for it.

Rat, he will campaign to get you fired, lose your insurance, your bank accounts, and deplatform you from all social media and internet access.

This strip offends me. Iâm deeply hurt. Very deeply.

If something I say or write offends you, it is your problem not mine. You just need to learn to suck it up buttercup.

If Rat is offending someone, he should be taken out of the strip, for a period of time.
