A non-apology where the apologizer seeks to put the onus for an offense on those offended, and the word "if" sets a condition by which they are not really sorry. A form of fauxpology.
"I'm sorry if anyone was offended by my slur."
"So, if no one was offended, that makes it okay, and you're not sorry? Classic ifpology."

IF you had a way to describe it, IF you could, this would be one hell of a IF. IF is another presumption of a maybe habbening or IF it could happen. Either way, its IFFY but it could be or not be. Confused yet? It has a probability factor of 42 IF it happens, then it does, but never always more like a maybe, 50/50 chance definite.

Someone who wants something to happen, attempts to will it to life using the word IF, alot, and I mean ALOT.
IF that could happen to ole joey bag of doughnuts it could happen to anyone pete!

SHUT UP KAREN, it never can happen to him, quit being a IFFOLOGIST for pete's sake.
Ok ok ok, but IF it did happen, it could turn out bad or good.
IF IF IF IF, just let it happen...

Well shit guys its a cool word but its all i can come up with. IF I could do better, I would do better but IF I have a next time.. I will stop being fluent in iffology.
