Anyone else see the contradiction here? You don't apologise if you've done nothing wrong unless you're trying to "tickle someone's ears".


Always apologise if you're wrong. Never apologise if you're right. Why say sorry for something you didn't do? I never could take an unjust-bollocking. If I've done something wrong I'll take what's dished out without complaint, but I'm not going to shut up and take my licks with nary a whimper if I'm in the right. Why should I?
