OCCASIONALLY????  That's gotta be the numero uno understatement of the

"Sorry" is a recognition that you did something that harmed someone else
and carries an unstated promise that you won't do it again.

"Sorry, fuckheads" is the opposite.  It shows zero remorse and promises
to do it again.

No, it's just simple common courtesy when communicating with your fellow 
man.

It's the ability to communicate on the merits of the TOPIC at hand
without, denigrating the PERSON with whom you disagree.

Calling people names weakens your position.  Inciting a UTI
in every thread is despicable.
