Man I hate over-sensitive people! I wouldn't consider any of those things blockable offences, let alone something to give you a lifetime ban! If you really want to get your ban reverted though, you can't just leave it there. I suggest, in the next few days, once you've calmed down, that you write them an email explaining how you apologise for any offence that may have been taken from your statements, however you wouldn't have found it offensive if you were on the receiving end of those comments. Discuss your wish to open a dialogue with the community to decide on what attitudes are or aren't allowed in the forums so everyone knows where the bar is set. Maybe close with a compromise to be let on again for a few days to say goodbye to your friends and exchange email addresses with those of whom you wish to stay in contact. Most importantly, keep your language polite and formal, as that makes you sound more mature, and don't actively push for them to let you get back on, because they are more likely to grant you access if you don't ask too hard for it. Once the email is sent, don't send another for a few months unless they let you back on, in which case express your gratitude immediately. People like flattery. Basically, what you need to do is demonstrate that you are a mature, reasonable person who doesn't want to cause trouble. Get on people's good sides and you are much more likely to get your way! Even if you don't think you're mature, reasonable or not wanting to cause trouble, just fake it. Get on their good sides, apologise, offer a solution to the problem, and show a willingness to compromise. Quite honestly, if I were to receive a message like that, it would really make me consider letting that person back!
