Passive Offensive

An unintended action or behavior that ends up being offensive or controversial to others. This typically occurs when someone is unaware of the cultural or social implications of their actions, leading to misunderstandings and potential discomfort for others. It is not deliberate, but it still can have a significant impact on relationships and social dynamics.
Hey, did you see Jake's new hairstyle? He let his hair get all tangled and messy, and now it looks like dreadlocks. I don't think he meant to offend anyone, but some people are taking it as cultural appropriation. It's totally a passive offensive situation.

Danish Offense

Pretending like you have a chance against the much bigger person, and going face first into the fight, only to get stomped by him within seconds. Much like the Danes, during WW2, did against the much stronger Germany and their invasion of the country.
Boy 1: "Man I saw you go in against that bigger dude - you got absolutely slaughtered."
Boy 2: "Yeah I know, I pulled out the Danish Offense. Shouldn't have done that."
