This is a question Sorry

With Tesco taking out full page adverts to say sorry for selling us ponyburgers, now is the time for us all to say Sorry.
Write a letter of apology to someone who deserves it.

props to Monty_Boyce

I'm sorry...
...but I don't think that the chap who knocked up his girlfriend and then made her have an abortion is really feels that guilty about it.

If he was, he wouldn't have deleted the apology.

We had a bit of a 90's fest
music wise before dinner tonight - Jesus Jones, NIN, PWEI, Severed Heads, Primal Scream, Carter USM etc.

I was rolling over in bed just then & I said to the missus - "What time is Love?"
"3am Eternal" says she.
"That's when I have to catch the Last Train to Trancentral" I said.

*Not really sorry*

Dear Morgan Major...
I am so sorry that I deliberately piddled on your shoes after you had kicked me in the arse. I am doubly sorry that your housemaster saw fit to punish you for your misdemeanour. Even sorrier that you injured yourself when you sought revenge on the rugby pitch.

Yes, you were indeed a sorry bastard, even at age 13. You're probably doing tme now, and I'm sorry about that, too.

EDIT: Morgan Major was the senior of two brothers at boarding school. Git. I am amused to discover today that Morgan Major was also a kid's toy, described as a "handheld children's organ". Well, he was a prick to me.

I'm sorry
for buying the last 30 loaves of bread in Tesco.

It's just that I don't want the birds in my garden going hungry in this weather, and I think you and your kids are all cunts.

Love

I'm sorry, so so sorry.
I've been a member on here for about 34 months apparently, and for all that time I've been living a lie-

I don't actually love horses, and I disagree that they are the best of all the animals.

Again, I can't apologise enough for this.

If it helps soften the blow, I do actually think that cats are cunts though, 100%, furry little bastards.

I'll give you sorry
I really hate people who use sorry inappropriately. For example as an excuse to barge past rather than saying 'excuse me' and waiting for me to move. Or when someone starts a sentence with 'Sorry but...' as if pre-empting with an apology makes it ok for them to act like an utter wrist.

Next time someone barges me whilst on the underground platform I will pre-empt pushing them under a train with a 'Sorry' because that obviously voids any bad behaviour.

HARUMPH.

Back In 1977
Some mates of mine were stopped by security just before the went into a notorious bar. Due to some quick thinking, a little sleight of hand and some misdirection, they got past security without too many problems.

I'm sorry.

Those *were* the droids you'd been looking for.....

Cheers

This is an apology to Tracy Chapman, one of my favorite singer-songwriters. In my 20's, I caught an interview on Parkinson where he was talking to a young black girl. She was sullen, uncooperative, monosyllabic and obviously didn't want to be there. After the interview, she sang "Fast Car" and I was blown away. But my first impression remained and was reinforced when I bought her album "Across The Lines".

"Across The Lines" was a brilliant album but all of the songs were full of anger, of despair, of the hopelessness of growing up in the ghetto. I had her pegged as a one-album wonder who would never get over her early years, never be happy and would probably kill herself through drink and drugs and the inability to handle her new-found riches due to inexperience.

"Across The Lines" has always been on my music playlist but I didn't really keep track of her career after that. Then, one night, I was idly chasing music through YouTube when I came across this:

Tracy around 2007.

I don't think I've ever been happier to be so wrong about someone. She's big, black, dread-locked and her smile just radiates contentment. Whatever has happened to her over the years has ended up with someone who's in exactly the place she needs to be in.

I doffs my hat.

Cheers

Dear Russel
I'm sorry I punched you in the gut in 1st year forcing you to double over in pain. I'm sorry for then thumping you on the back of the neck so you fell to the floor.

I was such a short kid and you were so tall. I was jealous.

I'm sorry you decided to take your own life a few years later so I was never able to apologise in person.

I would probably be best if you were to sit down for this. I’ll confess and apologize, but you have to promise not to get angry if I do. I’m not going to sugar-coat this. It’s bad, really bad, but you have to swear that you won't get mad when I tell you, because if you get upset and yell about how you're really disappointed in me, I'm just not going to say anything.

All right, here we go.

There’s no easy way to put this, so get ready, because here it comes.

If you get all huffy, you will be the one at fault, not me. It’s really not that big a deal. I’m only human, you know? And anyway, who are you to judge? Are you perfect? Can you really cast the first stone?

You still want an apology? Wow, you’re not making this easy for me. Not easy at all.

Well, here goes. I... I...

You know what? Forget it. I don’t have to do this. You're not better than me, and I don't have to do this. Just forget it.

Sincerely,

-- Lance A.

My brother and I used to apologise for EVERYTHING
Like, if we moved aside to let someone walk past on the pavement, we'd apologise. If we wanted someone to move out of the way so we could get past we'd apologise. If we sang a wrong note in choir we'd apologise.

One day my mum took us aside and tried to explain the nuances of the legal system to us. "If you say sorry, you're saying it's your fault, and then that person can sue you. If you don't say sorry it's not your fault."

My brother went up to a school bully and kicked him in the crotch, then ran off shouting, "It's not my fault, I didn't say soooorrryyyyy!"
