What is the sensation of being "offended"? What does it feel like?

Hah! I'm actually from Norway but I live in Sweden, been observing this fascinating phenomenon of taking offense at the strangest things for my three years there now.

So is that only a Sweden thing? Or does it happen in viking land (Norway) too?

Nah, people are offended easily in Norway as well, but Swedes are better at being offended on other people's behalf, it seems. They are also able to extract crazy interpretations out of seemingly orindary or insignificant things (there was one quite recent example in the media here, revolving around a photo).
