Thanks for that. I think.

I don't know, I feel like it's not even really sorry about anything--just putting on an act. Being sorry you got caught is still sorry, in a sense. But "I'm sorryish" is more like--gee, did I step on your foot? Oh, well... you probably deserved it.

That's my take on it anyway. And if you don't like it, well... I'm kind of ambivalently sorry about that.

Not the most subtle doublespeak in the world, at any rate.

Ah. Now I get it. Your basic non-apology.

I think it's more like "I'm sorry I got caught."

I think of it more like: "Oh... whoops."

So this is somewhere between "My heartfelt apologies" and "Oh. Uh...I really didn't mean to do that"?

Wow. This is an excellent word for a pre-existing concept!
