    🤡

    https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/apology

    1. a : an admission of error or discourtesy accompanied by an expression of regret (see: being sorry, ya incel)

    You picked the second definition on Webster’s because the first one made you look like a clown. The second one is even marked “excuse” because it’s being used in the literary sense and not in the sense of apologising to someone.

    Fucking lol

      Is today the day you find out words can have multiple interpretations? Do you think they list two for personal amusement?

      Yes, an apology without a sorry is an excuse, it’s also by definition an appology. English is fun and you are dumb.

        Lol, you realise the 1. And 2. On a dictionary imply separate contexts, right? You intentionally chose the context for apology that applies to a defence of criticism in literature, not a person to person apology for a mistake made.

        You’ve made yourself a clown and now you’re doubling down. It’s so rich, I love it. I’m going to end this little exchange on this delicious high note. Enjoy your weekend with your hand, buddy, because I won’t respond anymore, I’ll just let you impotently stew in it!

          Yes the context is one includes a sorry the other does not do remind me again, does it at all say it’s not an accurate definition?

          So again, Rose doesn’t want anything here. So why is a hollow sorry to you of all people a reasonable step? Do you want a genuine answer or do you just want to feel like their white knight?

          To me its fairly fucked up you assume a woman cant defend herself and instead take their outage onto yourself so you feel better. You’re pathetic.
