Very perceptive. We quickly pass judgment on verbal miscues as if WE'VE never acted out or misspoken-or. at least, would handle ourselves FAR better than the object of our scorn did in some situation we've NEVER been exposed to. Then we sit back like kings and queens waiting for the pc offender to grovel before us -when we're not the "aggrieved" party to begin with. And then we REALLY go to work in dissecting the "sincerity" of said apology in excruciating detail.
Who, exactly, died and made us the all-knowing gods of propriety and decorum?
