    In Canada … ‘I’m sorry’ doesn’t mean much any more …

    Bump somebody in public? … I’m sorry
    Meet someone you know? … I’m sorry
    Meet someone you don’t know? … I’m sorry
    Look at somebody? … I’m sorry
    Stand in line with other people? … I’m sorry
    Someone acknowledge you? … I’m sorry
    Someone asks you to hold this severed body part? … I’m sorry (and hold it anyway)
    Someone asks you for directions? … I’m sorry
    Someone tells you 1+1=2? … I’m sorry
    Someone asks you if you want salmon or steak? … I’m sorry
    Someone asks you which hockey team you like? … I’m sorry
    Someone asks you about the weather? … I’m sorry
