Wait........You "WASTED" an apology????? Are you SERIOUS??? You can't be serious? How is that even possible?? So the apology is only good if you make the other person grovel???

If you did or said something wrong, how could your apology be wasted????????

I can't type enough question marks to express how incredulous I am.

A WASTED apology???

I've never even heard of such a thing!!!!!

If he now calls it a "Wasted apology" it couldn't have possibly been sincere. Think about it.

Am I obligated to accept apologies on AFF? Regardless of how meaningless they appear to me?

Not at all dude. I felt free to dish out my first thoughts because I know you aren't easily offended...

LOL! NO, Baron. You're not obligated to accept apologies.

I was just nagging, as usual.

"Wasted apology"... I'll have to think about that. Can't say I have heard the term either, though I understand an apology is generally to the benefit of two or more parties - not just the offender.

This isn't my fish to fry here, but the apology was a load of bull. In all my life, I've never heard someone say they, "Wasted an apology." That's gotta be the funniest thing I've ever read in my life.

It's only for the benefit of the apologizer unless the apologize-ee has demanded it....which he didn't. Therefore, it was only for the good of the apologizer. And since it was only for him, it was bogus because he considers it wasted.

Maybe I'm the only one that got my funny bone tickled, but man, that's seriously funny.

WOW, another first! I have never heard of apologies not being necessary or sincere unless they are first "demanded".

But if this is true I sincerely apologize - er - wait! No!
