My robot vacuum when I get in its way. It's working hard, it shouldn't have to deal with my shit.

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.

I haven't personally, but I've seen my husband apologize to an ATM before

Not quite, but I have been known to curse at computers or other devices that keep throwing nonsense or otherwise troublesome errors..

"Quit bitching at me motherfucker!"

The final solution was often locating and replacing a faulty capacitor or 5...

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.
