In an irrelevant but related aside, which I will post in the spirit of KTCRIM, I hate the phrase, “no offence” for the same reason. If the statement was offensive, why should one not be offended just because you told him/her not to? And if it’s npt offensive. then just leave it out.. I always felt the wosrt insult was when I was told “no offence” about somrthing completely unoffensive, or when someone apoliogizes to me for something I completely couldn’t care about, because it means they think I’m too fragile for whatever it is they said or did.
