I'm late to my girlfriend's friend's funeral because I thought I left the gas on at home.
Why did you think you left the gas on? Was there any special reason?
No I just forgot about it .
While it's good that you were careful and wanted to ensure that you did not inadvertently leave the gas on and risk a fire or explosion, you should still have prepared better since it is important to be on time for significant events like funerals. Showing up late to a funeral is considered rude and disrespectful. The next time you have an important event to attend, you should plan ahead to prevent any careless mistakes from delaying your departure.
Nah, it's okay. I have the right to have my mistakes.
Don't you think it is rude to show up to such a big event late? Mistakes happen but you can't just walk in there and have everyone turn and stare at you.
