This is how my boys think they can insult someone & get away with it, like saying "no offense" really makes it less offensive......but we all know that when you hear "no offense but....", prepare for a major dissing.
Like Evan always says, "You can't polish a terd".
So it goes like this:
No offense but.......you're not very good at basketball.
No offense but.......you're kinda fat.
No offense but.......you're stupid.
You get the idea.
It was really great when we were at some friends' house & Zane goes,
"No offense, but your house kind of smells." Fabulous.
How about this:
No offense to any horse-lovers out there, but if I have to see that Cavalia weird horse show commercial one more time, I'm going to kill myself.

I always tell my kids that if they are saying no offense, it means they are about to offend somebody. SO it is not allowed. I love your examples. Seriously, how is, "no offense but, your house is pretty messy" (yes, one of them said this)supposed to be taken without offending. "Oh, none taken. I like to keep my house pretty messy;)"
I love the one that goes, "no offense, mom, but you need to take a shower". I told the child that said that - that they get to take care of Jayson and all his puke for a day!!! We'll see who smells now!!
You should hear Brett sing the song to the horse show commercial... now that would TOTALLY deserve a "No offense, but your singing sucks" statement. I was telling Brett about your blog post and we were laughing and laughing about it and then Bryson walks in and says "Dad, you need to take a shower!" Maybe we should teach him to say "No offense, but..." first.
