Do you ever really have to tie your fingers behind your back?

To keep from answering some of the questions? At times, I read some of these questions and my sarcastic side just jumps out and takes over. Do you ever have to restrain yourself from answering for fear of REALLY insulting the person who asked the question?

    I lack the filter that most people have between the brain and mouth (fingers), so I generally just let it fly. Hurt feelings come from sensitivity, and the world is way too sensitive. If I hurt their feelings, there's a chance they may toughen up...

    So basically, I feel like I changing the world, one answer at a time...LOL

    I still give stupid answers but in a way that is non-offensive. If it is too difficult to be non-offensive, then just kick back, have a laugh and go to the next question.
