“We’re Sorry (But Not Really)” – Nepal’s Newest Social Media Trend

If your feed has been filled with serious-looking “Official Statements” lately: calm fonts, plain backgrounds, and dramatic Official Apology Statement” headlines, don’t panic. No one’s in trouble.
Turns out, everyone’s just… fake-apologizing for being awesome.


It started in Philippines in late 2024 with brands posting fake apology letters to poke fun at themselves, and now, Nepali pages have joined the fun.

  • Nepal.Food said sorry “for tempting you with all the food reels, and making you eat out more.”
  • Pathao said sorry “for being the best and safest ride-sharing platform”, and other brands hopped on too, blending humor and local flavor.
    Even cafes and small creators are “apologizing” for ruining diets and causing serious food FOMO.

Because it works.
It’s funny. It’s relatable. It’s shareable.
It turns boring PR talk into meme-worthy gold; the kind of content that makes people stop scrolling and start tagging friends. Lately, “Sorry” has gone from serious to seriously smart marketing.


Nepali brands have mastered the art of being self-aware, funny, and viral – all in one post.
So the next time you see a big “We Apologize” headline, don’t worry, they’re probably just saying sorry… for being irresistible.
