Yeah, I've been working on this for years. I'm getting a little better. I find it's mostly a girl thing. Anyway, my brother studied abroad in Denmark for a semester and over there they're much more chill about this. If you're on the subway and bump into someone, you don't say sorry, because everybody does it and it's not a big deal. So when my bro came back to the U.S. and was on the T in Boston, he bumped into a girl and forgot to say he was sorry, after being used to the Danish culture. She whipped around, looked him straight in the eye, and said, with such attitude, "Excuuuuse me is the woooord!" I'll do the impression for you when you come to Maine this summer. -Laur
