Why do people aplogise for their 'rants'? email this discussion to a friend?

I have come across quite a number of discussions that are labelled 'rants' and 'sorry, rant', 'sorry, long one'... and wonder why people apologise for their ranting?confused

Isn't it like apologising for your opinion, be it nice or bad and why the need to apologise for how you're feeling? Why apologise for venting your frustration or getting something off your chest? Shouldn't such discussions just end with 'phew, I feel much better now that I got that off my chest!'lol

I can see the point that you're making, and I am sure that people, in hindsight, wonder why they've said, "Sorry." It could be that a person is apologizing to themselves and others not because of what they've said, but the level of anger or annoyance that they were exhibiting within the rant. Maybe a way of saying, "Sorry, but I'm not myself at the moment." But, that is only a guess.

I guess some people feel that maybe they just went a bit too
far with what they were saying. Maybe they felt guilty about
being too harsh. If you truly want to express your feelings
then do it. It shouldn't be necessary to apologize. I guess
it's up to the individual. Personally, I love to vent!!!

I agree why be sorry for something that you believe in or something you feel strongly about. Saying sorry just proves that you do not support your opinion. There is a time to be sorry, and there is a time to not. The whole phew thing was genius!!!

i dont know. maybe they are just trying to be courtious or they want to let you know it might upset you and they are sorry if they upset you?

yup, that must be the most feasible explanation.. thumbupsorry if they upset you but they're gonna say it anyway. I do not see the need as they have put 'RANT'in the title anyway so we know what to expectlol
