Be offended by anything – used negatively to preface a potentially offensive comment to clarify that one does not intend to offend

Explanation:

  • misread, especially with the intention of offending. For instance, Please don't take their criticism personally; they only mean well. I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but you have to allow people an opportunity to speak. The variation first appeared in the late 1300s. See also get somebody wrong.
  • If a word or term frequently has a metaphorical, non-literal meaning attached to it, it is regarded as an idiom. Some phrases, however, maintain their literal sense while becoming metaphorical idioms. Formulaic language is when an idiom's metaphorical meaning deviates from its literal meaning.
