    Excuses

    I don't know about you, but I feel like I'm hearing excuses for everything all the time. I'm not sure if I'm just hyper sensitive to hearing them in conversations because it's a curiosity of mine or if it deep down annoys me, but I thought it would be interesting to get your take on them...
