And what is the kindest incident you have, in which you harmed someone and then made for them a good and strong apology?

Usually if I harm someone I'll make excuses instead of apologizing. I usually have a reason for doing what I did ('I didn't see the red light until it was too late because it was hidden behind a tree and I was going 15 mph over the speed-limit down a hill in the rain, so I honked to tell everyone to get out of the way because I wasn't going to be able to stop in time and everyone ELSE maanged to!')

Except for little things where it really doesn't matter of course.

Most people do that. Or apologize without actually meaning it. But *most* of us have the decency to be too hypocritical too admit that we do it and instead focus on the handful of times we managed to apologize properly. What's wrong with you, anyway? >:)

Being hypocritical is what decent folks usually are. It's not that bad.

The single excuse have I, and it wears on primes.

Right! So you need to make up others. Even if they know it's really the same thing every time, it might be more interesting for them.
