Consumer-Generated Confessions Come Clean For Mom

Damn! Just when we thought this consumer-generated trendlet was dying down, online video network Capessa and Dawn had to go and partner to create Come Clean For Mother’s Day…The World’s Cleanest Video Contest. Now we have to watch random people confess to their mothers such gems as stealing wine from the fridge (oh, the horror!), eloping three months before the real wedding (that’s pretty shocking), dating mom’s co-worker, getting a tattoo (Angela?), Lake Acapulco cliff diving and all sorts of other mundane escapades. Thankfully Mom doesn’t have to watch all these videos but she does get a year of free maid service if her kid’s confession is the best. Even so, we’re thinking Mom would much prefer to watch Xtra-pine’s Cleaning Hunk rather than their sons and daughters copping to their adolescent dirty deeds.

“I’m sorry you feel that way” sounds like an apology, but research breaking down what makes an apology actually work found that phrases which avoid naming the offense or taking responsibility for it are consistently rated as less sincere, regardless of how sorry the tone sounds.
