My public apology to @hallmark
2Background information:
In the following thread ( https://meh.com/forum/topics/which-one-bothers-irk-the-most ) there was this exchange:
▪ @ jsh139 This drives me crazy. When we bought our house they [light switches] were all wrong. 4 hours and 20 switches later, I had them all fixed -- and all of them are right. If both are up or down, it's off. If they're different, it's on. Turning off all the lights is easy. Flip them all down and it's off.

▪ @ capguncowboy I did that to my house too. My wife didn't understand why it was needed.

As part of the 3 way deal to get a 30 pin fuku speaker dock that worked for my daughter’s birthday present (my lightening one arrived DOA and so the two way trade with @cog80 was off and due to @hallmark's involvement was back on again only now as a 3 way) I promised @hallmark, as part of the trade, that I’d make a public rather than private apology for my comment to him of “pfffft husbands. Totally clueless”.
Attention Please! Apology to begin:
I am so sorry to denigrate husbands everywhere, and you in particular, by stating “pfffft husbands. Totally clueless” in response to your comment. Instead I should have known to say, “yes husbands have a hard cross to bear when a wife does not understand the important of all light switches being turned off in the same manner” (insert stifled laughter here – parenthetical side: oh wait I am supposed to be groveling – insert picture of me on both knees pleading for forgiveness– @jont please find an appropriate one for me and post it as I still don’t know how to do that despite reading the instructions in a long lost thread). In the future I will be sure to bow and give respect to you and all other husbands out there, acknowledging your superiority, as you understand the importance of things I clearly fail to comprehend. And I humbly apologize profusely, repeatedly, sincerely…. and would be eternally grateful to meh and beyond for your forgivemeh.
End of apology.
whew (wiping sweat off of brow)…

LOL Nicely done! But you may need another apology thread for spelling my name wrong - not once but 3 times!
@Kidsandliz Oopsie!
@hallmike YIKES I sure blew that and can't even go back to edit it. Sorry about that. Note to self: don't do important things when tired.
@Kidsandliz No worries. I've been called worse. It's the thought that counts... and the vindication. Definitely the vindication. ;)
@hallmike I think @Kidsandliz was thinking about @hallmarklog, the line of Hallmark scapegoat greeting cards.
@SSteve Actually I think you figured out my brain fart that resulted in the goof of @hallmark for @hallmike. That has to be @marklog 's fault even if he isn't this month's goat. And @studerc 's too for good measure.
You started off weak but ended strong, so it sounds like a good apology to me. I looked for the picture you requested in case @JonT was unavailable, but "girls on their knees" came up with a lot of images on Google that didn't seem... appropriate... for this venue (although not totally inapplicable for the apology content). 8 out of 10.
@DaveInSoCal Worth the thread just for the google search. "But honey! I was trying to find an image to express remorse!"
@DaveInSoCal somehow I think @hallmike 's wife might have trouble with the ones not totally inapplicable… LOL then he might be apologizing for our three way
I would also like to apologise to Hallmark for peeing on the Disney figurine display at the mall. I was quite drunk and at the time was of the belief that the ceramic seven dwarfs had begun a verbal confrontation regarding my misspelt tattoo. I later realised that they had not, and I'm sorry.
Bravo!! Most excellent apology. Perhaps goat-worthy?
@bluedog No, can't the be the goat. I may be losing my internet… depending on where I end up finding to live (if my car it is definitely out)
@jont or other meh employee with privileges. I just shot myself in the kneecap spelling @hallmike as @hallmark. I would appreciate it if you could go back in to my original post and fix the headline and the body of the message so that it is right (hiding head in embarrassment). I will take responsibility and not even blame @studerc
@Kidsandliz
@kidsandliz: here is your apology gif combo:
@Thumperchick ouch! That one guy hits his face on the floor. I don't require anyone to go that far at this time.
@Thumperchick Pretty good. Thanks. @hallmike will just have to give the gif's a sex change in his imagination LOL
