Sucks when a situation could've been avoided if you could only get the words out fast enough

Sucks when a situation could've been avoided if you could only get the words out fast enough I was trying to explain something, trying to get those last few words out, but then they got impatient and blew a gasket and stormed off, leading to days of awkwardness and silent treatment. When I was finally given enough time to explain it in full it was like realization and apology struck them like lightning and suddenly everything was fine. Gotta love it, gotta laugh I guess
