When we believe or say we have been offended, we usually mean we feel insulted, mistreated, snubbed, or disrespected. And certainly clumsy, embarrassing, unprincipled, and mean-spirited things do occur in our interactions with other people that would allow us to take offense.

To be offended is a choice we make; it is not a condition inflicted or imposed upon us by someone or something else.

The good guys in my movies mind their own business and they don't judge other people. And the bad guys are jealous, they judge other people without knowing the whole story, they want all the attention and they're mean spirited. So I think my films are politically correct in a weird way.
I would describe myself as a guy that's very normal but has the tendency to rib people, but never in a mean-spirited way.
