Heritage apologies for the convenience

Reminds me of a classic Mitch Hedberg joke: "An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You should never see an Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order sign, just Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience."

    Enough with the apologies.

    I used to really like Mitch Hedberg.

    I still do but I used to like him, too.

    This one is my favorite and comes to mind:

    I walked by a dry cleaner at 3 am, and there was a sign: "Sorry, we're closed" You don't have to be sorry, it's 3 am, and you're a dry cleaner! It would be ridiculous for me to expect you to be open! I'm not gonna walk in at 10 am and say "I walked by here at 3 and you were closed - somebody owes me an apology!"

    Mitch Hedberg

    :D

    You were truly one of a kind RIP, Mitch. :(

    Fairly stated, but there is always the risk of an escalator restarting while someone is climbing it and in that situation the jolting start would be hazardous.
