In the old days, when someone wanted you to apologize it was for something you had done to them. And the way it worked was they would ask you for an apology and you would tell them to go screw themselves. But we live in a new age where apologies are done differently. Nowadays, the way apologies work is that you demand that someone you don't personally know apologize to someone else that you don't personally know. This is another form of modern outsourcing and, as such, has become quite the rage in the more technologically sophisticated areas of the United States.
As a result, in order to keep up with the times, I am creating this Apology Thread and starting it off with my own demands for apologies from people I have never met. First, I demand that George Lucas apologize to Star Wars fans for writing and directing Stars Wars Episodes 1, 2 and 3 and that he further apologize to movie fans in general for producing Howard the Duck. Second, I demand that Norm Coleman apologize to the good people of the state of Minnesota for losing to Al Franken in the 2008 senatorial race. And because this race had national implications, Norm Coleman may want to consider expanding his apology to include the citizens of all these United States. Third, I demand that Madonna apologize to Kabbalah worshippers for joining their religion and thereby making a mockery of it.
Now that I have issued my apology demands, I would like to invite my fellow freepers to issue their own apology demands to people they don't know.
And lastly, because I don't want this post to end on a purely negative note, I would like to personally thank Mitchell Mortaza for founding the Women's Lingerie Football League. Mitchell, if you are reading this, I just want to say "Never Give Up! Never Surender!"
I apologize for reading that post which was obviously not intended to answer mine at #295.
Frustrated women who couldn't .... well ...
That's why the boys always got it the worst.
The one for whom it was intended will see it. So will all his peeps.
Oh. In that case, I apologize.
I demand you apologize for expressing homosexual tendencies on this thread.
I apologize for eliciting your apology.
You are too kind. I apologize for your having to apologize for eliciting my apology.
This thread is gay.
And I’m sorry for having to point that out.
I apologize for thinking I need a shrink for being glad this thread continues..... :-)
We all need to see a shrink. I’m in the most critical need right now. I apologize to Danny H for stealing his thunder. LOL
OMG!
I apologize for lurking this thread up to this post, but I couldn’t stand it any longer!
Ay Carumba!
LOL! Gunny’s quite a character.
You owe me an apology for making me watch that hilarious commercial! Didn’t Gunny end up being an Obama supporter??
(snicker *tissue* snicker)
I demand that you apologize for saying my apologies were insincere!
Then it doesn't matter to you whether my apology is sincere? That's how I used to answer when my mother would tell me to apologize for hitting my brother. It was always followed by: "God help you child!" and then a swift slap across my face." Never did figure out God's connection to her violent action. Maybe I'm just not smart enough.
LOL Thanks, mom!
