Japan is out here turning public transit into the most Canadian thing on the planet. Imagine being so polite that your light rail system constantly apologizes for just existing. Meanwhile, I can’t even get a "thanks" for fixing a legacy bug that’s been haunting the repo since 2012. These trams display "Sorry" because they’re in service but not picking up passengers. Relatable. I also need a giant glowing neon sign on my forehead that says "Out of Service" while I crawl toward my third espresso. A machine with manners—what a concept. Maybe we should teach code how to feel shame next. 😏
