"My name is Rhoda Morgenstern. I was born in the Upper Midwest in the mid seventies, but I've lived all over the world. People love me or hate me, and it's nice knowing where I stand. I had a bad puberty, and it's still going strong. I'm a high school graduate, I went to a liberal arts college where I learned about writing and feminism and paternalism. If I remembered my ACT scores, I'd never admit it. You may remember me from Trainwrecks. I was the one with good grammar and occasional lazy spelling errors. I started Rhoda's Tact Shack as a side project where I could dispense tactful advise, both solicited and unsolicited, into the tumblr-sphere. Then I abandoned it. Now I'm back. Tumblr, this is your last chance!"
“We honestly had no idea people did not enjoy this stuff. [We in Japan] regret [producing] the thousands of hours of bondage porn, rape porn, utensil-rape porn, food-rape porn, frozen-food-rape porn, vomit-enema porn, elder-care-coma-patient-rape porn, and the kind of a porn in which a nubile youth is kidnapped, stripped, tied down in a wading pool and raped. We are deeply ashamed for whatever it is about these films that has made people around the world vomit so vigorously. Please know that the content was only intended to entertain and arouse.”

Now THAT, my dear readers, is an apology.
