Was on a London bus early one morning, not many people on the bus. One bloke got up from his seat to get off, he had a big bag and knocked it against one of the poles on his way out. He said sorry to the pole, there was no one else around. One of the most British things I’ve seen.

Canada/Canadians too. They apologize to furniture as well...

I consider that “good mental hygiene”. There was a boundary violation (of self), the recognition of it (awareness), discernment (my mistake), and planting a little of the idea to change future behavior (“sorry” to myself).
