Talk Properly!!

A Japanese was walking out of the lift when he bumped into an American. Out of courtesy, he immediately apologized.

"I'm sorry."

The American knew it was not his fault and so apologized as well. "I'm sorry too."

Not wanting to lose out, the Japanese immediately said "I'm sorry three."

At this juncture, the American was puzzled. He asked, "What are you sorry for (four)?"

Moral of the story: Next time you knock into someone, do it the Singaporean style and just walk off to save trouble.
