How to sound meek

A R44 Chopper entered the FAJS CTR today without Clearance and called for a joining only once passing the extended centre line of the RWY. After confirming his position on RADAR that he was already 7 NM in the CTR He was told that He is to call for joining clearance before entering and not to enter untill such clearance is issued. The pilot now even more dumbstruck replies Affirm to which he is told that it is not a question and in future he is to hold clear of controlled airspace till obtaining clearance. Again he answers Affirm to which an annonomous chirp from someone else on frequency replies "The word you are looking for is SORRY"
The chopper pilot meekly appologieses.
