A unnecessary or pointless use of the word "sorry". The rule states:
Rule 945 can be invoked by anyone who hears the word "sorry" in a circumstance the
person saying it has no responsibly in the situation. Punishments vary from
person to person, but the general rule of thumb is to ignore the person until they a)
hand you the latest XKCD comic, printed on A3 paper, b) give you a hug, c) have pity sex with you, d) bring you hot chocolate and comfort
food whist you cry (in situations where comfort is needed)
