New+Trier+Anonymous+Apologies
  • “I’m sorry about that time when I ran over your hamster with your neighbor’s tricycle, I didn’t realize how fast tricycles could go” 
  • “I just want you to know that it was an accident about your backpack. I like to think that I didn’t technically set it on fire but rather it burst into flames because I left it too close to the hell-beast portal”
  • “Sometimes mistakes are made, and that was what happened when I left you in that dumpster. Your pile-of-leaves-in-a-trash-bag costume was surprisingly good and I didn’t hear your screams because Amazon Music just added the song that the dwarves sang in Snow White. I’ve been waiting since 1937”
  • “I’m sorry that I left you in the parking lot of Costco during a blizzard, but in my defense, the bears were running really fast and I wanted to make sure they didn’t get the chicken nuggets in my car. I know that you thought it was a “traumatic experience” or whatever about being cold and attacked and abandoned without any chicken nuggets, but I like to think it builds character. I’m quite the optimist.”
  • “You know people always say to expect the unexpected, but how was I supposed to know that walruses don’t eat pine cones?”
  • “I’m so sorry. I didn’t know she was your mom.”
  • “Hope the coma is temporary.”
