It has been said that I have a long list of rules of what one should and shouldn’t do. And I’ll have to admit, my Rule Book On Life would put Miss Post’s Book of Etiquette to shame with both it’s length and depth. I guess I’m rigid like that.
In keeping with my tradition of setting people straight, it has become necessary for me to educate at least one member of my household of the public on how one should and should not fucking apologize.
How Not To Apologize:
- I realize your feelings are hurt, and I think you are an idiot for feeling that way. Don’t let that shit bother you and I won’t have to apologize.
- Oh, you’re upset? Well if I just sit here real quiet like for long enough, eventually you will just forget about it and I can act like nothing happened.
- Well if you hadn’t been such a bitch, I wouldn’t have done that. I’ll apologize. You first.
- Ok fine. I’m sorry. But I would like to add 101
excusesreasons why it wasn’t my damn fault in the first place, so technically, I’m not wrong. But, uh, yeah… sorry.
How To Apologize:
- I didn’t mean to hurt you. I would never intentionally hurt you, because I do love you. The fact that I have hurt you - however unintentionally - kills me. I am sorry. If there’s anything I can do to make it better, please let me know.
Got that, dumbass?
Shit. I need to go email my mother.

Hehe! Men.
Sounds a lot like one of my Public Service Annoucements! Did you see that I JUST had to post one yesterday because of men not understanding the rules? LOL
*hugs*
how could you two argue after that lovely poop conversation of yesterday? :razz:
I always apologize the right way.
Men! Can’t live with em, can’t shoot em. Well not legally anyway.
OMG! So it’s not just MY husband who acts like a complete jackass. Thank goodness.:roll:
Apology? I’ll have to Google that for more background information.
You need TWO X chromosomes to pull off an apology correctly. Half the required number of X chromosomes results in a half assed apology–the “I guess I’m sorry but. . .” type of apology. :roll: Which is why I’m kind of skeptical that Avitable always apologizes the right way. :razz:
Sorry you’re dealing with a nonapology, Miss Britt!
