Generally, yes. We sometimes forget a patch, and yes I have patches of

hope to get to them this weekend, they are overdue. I apologize for
that.

Sort of, technical arguments will have me delay the patch and I don't
really do too many other personal dislikes on non-technical grounds.
This is not a humanities field. :-).
