Anyone else? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind the warm weather, but something feels off driving down the street in 60 degree weather listening to holiday music and seeing garland wrapped around the lamp posts.

Snowman

The "Festive Snowman" unlocks on December 1

Anyway, starting December 1st you can now attach the Festive Snowman to your apologies. This guy was our second addition to the seasonal gifts (they only unlock certain times of the year). The Festive Snowman is looking to spread some holiday cheer to the people you wronged. Hopefully you weren’t a complete jerk (although somehow I bet you were) but don’t worry he’ll help you get forgiven. Being able to actually sip your hot cocoa without getting the silent treatment from your significant other is key. It’s also related to how many presents you get.

Remember – he who dies with the most toys wins.

It just dawned on me that while I have it setup for attaching a virtual gift to increase your chances of getting FORGIVEN, I didn’t think about something for DEMANDING an apology. Now obviously you couldn’t give someone a stuffed teddy bear and hope they’ll apologize to you.. I mean I guess you could, but that’s pretty lame. No, i’m thinking of intimidation! Just straight up awful stuff. Pies in the face, dipping their fingers in warm water while they sleep, or dumping a pound of kitty litter on the hood of someone’s car. OK you got me, that last one was oddly specific. I actually did that to someone once when he wrapped my car in plastic the night before. I never apologized and it scratched his whole car up. I should probably apologize…

So digression aside, do you think I should add something to let people attach “gifts” or actions to augment the chances of someone agreeing to apologize to you?

Ghost

The Elusive "Mischievous Ghost" Unlocks a Week Before Halloween

I can’t believe how fast this year is flying by. I really love this season though, between Oktoberfest, the leaves changing, Thanksgiving, etc, it’s just an awesome time.  So I’ve had this idea in my head since I started Let Me Apologize back in February, which was to not only have gifts you can give, but gifts that “lock and unlock” at different times of the year. I was hoping to have something cool in time for Oktoberfest (Did I mention I *love* Oktoberfest?) but I was so busy drinking pints of Märzen and Hefeweizen that I didn’t have the time.

Fast forward a few sleepless nights and here we have our first two seasonal gifts – the Festive Snowman and the Mischievous Ghost. Our ethereal friend unlocks the week before Halloween, and you can use him up until the first week in November in case you were too busy trick-or-treating! Enjoy and let me know what you think, I love hearing input!

Maybe we can all have a pint of Deutsche Bier next year together.

It’s been a little over a year since I’ve first launched LetMeApologize.com, and I’m proud to say Let Me Apologize now has a blog. I plan on sharing some of the best apologies here, discussing things, and really whatever else I feel is worthy of your time.

You can view it here: http://www.letmeapologize.com/Apology/9

This was the 9th apology ever to the site (I think most of the first few were tests) but one of the first I left up there. I made it as another test to see how the site was working. It seemed like so long ago, and in no time it was voted down.
