I apologize all the time to my car. Sorry for the ziptie I used to hold up the debris shield, sorry I gunned on that lug instead of spec torquing it, sorry I didn't clean up that dog hair quicker.
But I do put oil in you every 3-4k miles and make sure your parts are replaced when they need to be. I care for you tho, I treat you right where it matters. Just last one more year, don't you go dying on me.

Yeah! I stepped backwards onto what I thought was someone's foot, apologised, but it turned out it was actually the prong of a swivel chair.
Yes, of course.
I used to when I was a kid, then I realized objects are not sentient.
All the time
Many times, it's just automatic sometimes when I bump into something.
I was once running on very little sleep and said thank you to a self service checkout
I've done more cursing and bitching than I do an apology to objects I use.
