I thought he was especially brilliant in the recent "Sensitivity Training" episode. He summed it up nicely - the world needs "DE-Sensitivity Training" to truly cope. Basically, something is always going to offend someone, and sensitivity training teaches people to be offended by things that they might not have even been offended by prior to the training. I'm right up there about people needing to have some friggin backbones and stop blaming others for "hurting their wittle feelings". I think it's up to an individual to deflect what offends them. I certainly don't expect the world to cater to my every whim. Certain things do offend me, and I handle it by removing myself from them or ignoring it. I don't expect people to change just because I "might be sensitive".

A few years ago, I was once asked at Disneyland to not talk about a certain subject because the lady said that what I was saying was upsetting her. I told her to just ignore me then. Good grief, people have legs. Use 'em to walk away or turn on selective hearing, especially when people aren't being loud. It's really not that difficult.
