[size=12]i'm one of those people who apologize for things that aren't/wasn't my fault.
not because i feel responsibility, but because i can still sympathize/empathize, and want to express my concern. \o\
[color=#006FFF]It's not so much saying sorry for something when you're being sympathetic to someone about a situation (like saying "I'm sorry" when someone tells you they're sick or something--I can understand that), but when someone says "Sorry" about something they had absolutely no fault in--say, apologizing when a stray ball randomly hits you or something; that person apologizes when it should be the other person to do so. It just irks me a little when I see it happen a lot; it just comes off as a little too passive and it just gets under my skin, despite being pretty passive myself.
OT:
Despite the above pet peeve, being ignored pisses me off more than just about anything else.
