was wrong. Sorry is not the hardest word to say. If you've waited and
waited for an apology that never came, this list is for you.
Check all that apply, and pretend you've received the perfect apology. Or better yet, direct the offender to this list and hope he or she gets a clue.
I am so sorry.
I totally fucked up and am the biggest idiot ever.
I get that I did the thing you hate and now there's nothing attractive about me.

-You can decide what we have for dinner for the rest of time.
