i never promised you a rose garden. luckily it doesn't get stuck in my head.
Not so much...
No, I think it comes from "I beg you to pardon me for bothering you." Otherwise known as "Sorry to bother you, but...", just a bit more dated.
It's still just people being polite.
Oh, no. I know what they mean. People who think that take common colloquialisms waaay too seriously.
No, and beg's and pardon's don't really have a real link to promises, so think about the words and you'll get the real meaning, I've never thought of promises when someone says it, I just think.. you aren't really begging, and you don't beg even though you say you do
