My current existence of calling out immature bullshit works just fine for me.
Please refrain from using profanity.

Everyone would enjoy a better existence if people stopped using words that marginalize and hurt others.
It would actually be a rather dystopion world if we were all policed, even by "each other" in order to prevent upsetting or offending people. Check out the movie "Equilibrium" sometime.

"Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me." I learned that when I was like, 5?

Maybe this is hypocritical of me because I'm often rude, and crass, and I get angry. But I'm not a bigot, and I refuse to use the words that they've appropriated to hurt others.
Oh idk, I think there are plenty of folks, quite possibly including some in this thread, that feel that they or others actually have a "right" to not be offended. Such silliness often brings about draconian rules and regulations. It's an epidemic here in America. Here's just 1 example of the stupidity:

I learned that when I was like, 5? How old were you when you learned that that was wrong? Words can definitely hurt people.
Oh please 
If you can actually be "hurt" by the rantings of someone obviously less intelligent or "cultured" or "classy" than you, all I can say is your parents seriously missed out on some things when they raised you. Also, see my earlier post about your perceived "right to not be offended."
