weegegirl 2 #1 May 25, 2006 How many times a day do you say the word "sorry"??? I constantly get shit for saying this word so much. What should I say intead? I think I'll just start yelling "PISS OFF!" at people everytime I would normally say sorry. Sorry. I mean... PISS OFF! sorry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course, you can mix it up w/ "Pardon me" "I bed your pardon" "forgive me" or "my mistake." but I definitely agree w/ Jello J... "My bad" has got to go. I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

ACMESkydiver 0 #6 May 25, 2006 I use it too much, and now so does my daughter. It used to drive me NUTS when we'd hear some kind of bad news, like our neighbors cat was run over, and my mom would say 'Oh, I'm so sorry.' "Why? You didn't hit it!" Now I find I do the same thing. I'm at least trying to say "I'm sorry to hear that." My mother in law is trying to tell my daughter to quit apologizing for everything. I keep telling my little girl to ignore the nutty grandma; showing sympathy and empathy to others is NOT a bad quality, even if you tend to over-do it a smidge. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

Icon134 0 #9 May 25, 2006 QuoteWell, given the fact that EVERYTHING that goes wrong in my house is my fault, I say it constantly. If you like you can, to quote the canadian pop/rock group "Bare Naked Ladies": "Blame it on me" Here we are again and we're looking at each other as if each other were to blame. You think you're so smart, but I've seen you naked and I'll probably see you naked again. MillI VanillI told you to Blame it On The Rain, but if you blame it on the rain tell me what can be gained so, if all else fails you can blame it on me. Chorus if all else fails you can blame it on me. if all else fails you can blame it on me. if all else fails blame it on me. if all else fails you can blame it on me. Then you smile again but you're looking at me as if there's something I'm supposed to say. Forgive me Father, but I'm falling in love and that's all I have for confession today. Maybe if you'd ask me on any other given day I wouldn't have time for you or anything that you say but it's alright now, you can blame it on me. Chorus Yes dear I love you, but sometimes I think that love's not enough for you. So you want to play mind games, well that's fine, go ahead, la la la I can't hear you. Here you are and you're a hundred thousand miles away. They say that absence makes the heart grow fungus. I wax poetic as you're waxing your legs you say you think there's a traitor among us.

TheAnvil 0 #14 May 25, 2006 I'm sorry you're getting shit for saying you're 'sorry'. How about saying one of these instead: - A thousand pardons - my apologies - lemon Instead of saying "I'm sorry" say "lemon" and go about your business. I like that option best. It will keep your coworkers offguard. You could alternate between citrus fruits daily. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Paige 0 #18 May 25, 2006 Quotebut I definitely agree w/ Jello J... "My bad" has got to go. The only time I use it is when I have just screwed up big time in the tunnel and I need to let the other person know it was my fault (while we're still in the air). Since it's not practical to talk in the tunnel and long words are hard for most people to lip read, mouthing 'my bad' is pretty easy for most people to get. I agree, when spoke, it's a tad annoying but it may just be a pet peve (sp?!) of mine.Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
