In what experts are calling the most polite geological event of the century, a brand-new island appeared overnight in the Pacific Ocean, reportedly apologizing to passing boats for any inconvenience. The island, which has already been named "Sorry-not-Sorry Isle," boasts beaches made of what scientists are tentatively identifying as leftover taco shells and a single palm tree that looks suspiciously like a giant feather duster.

Local fishermen were the first to spot the island, with one enthusiastic observer, Bob McFishface, stating, "I thought I was dreaming, but then the island waved at me. Not with hands, obviously, but, you know, in an islandy way. It even sent a text message saying, ‘Hey there! Got any snacks?’" Experts warn that while the island seems friendly, it has been known to rearrange itself slightly every time someone tries to map it, leading cartographers to suspect it might be a shape-shifting prankster.

Dr. Imogen Quixote, a renowned islandologist who studies sudden landmasses, speculated, "This is the first island to request a WiFi password upon arrival. It’s clearly here to join the 21st century but values politeness above all. We’re currently negotiating with it to establish a national anthem that’s just elevator music."

As of press time, Sorry-not-Sorry Isle has already launched an Instagram account and is offering virtual tours via drone, inviting the world to "come for the views, stay because you forgot your phone charger." Authorities advise visitors to bring snacks, patience, and a good sense of humor. After all, in a world of rising seas, at least one new piece of land is making waves for all the right reasons.
