One of my biggest pet peeves is when people "apologize" for other peoples' so-called shortcomings. Like
Quote:
... I'm sorry that you aren't able to do that.
and
Quote:
I'm also sorry that you have your self-worth tied up into...
When people do this, it just makes them look too weak to call (what they consider) a spade a spade. If you're going to apologize for something, apologize for something you have control over - don't apologize for someone else.
