What can we blame 2legs for?
I blame 2legs for bureaucrats.
The Swedish Tax Agency keeps hold on births, marriages, deaths etc. so since Mum died abroad and they're not automatically notified I called them to ask what to do with her death certificate.
After a lot of "if" and "but" they finally found out I should go to the local Tax Office and deliver it myself. Apparently I didn't talk to anyone there as I thought, but to someone at a national call centre.

I blame 2legs for the JCP, and their telling me something entirely differnt each time I call, differnt and* contradictory, and utterly unlike what I've been told I need to do I think I've come to a realisation how some people can just 'crack' and, for a random example, go off on a gun/shooting spree
I also blame 2legs for my rather delish lunch

, there are limits to what we can blame 2legs for, and bureaucrats are definitely not in. Blame Evolution for having a weird sense of humour.

If it´s not painted with anything evil and fits into your oven - why not? I blame 2legs for being one clever of a pennypincher.

I'm not being a pennypincher... but the really* nice and extremely expensive oven dish that is totally* suitable for what I was going to cook, would make.... err enough of the meal for about six people... and as I'm only feeding myself I just needed to find something to make a one person sized portion... though now I can't make my mind up if I want to eat that or not I blame 2legs for my not having much food in at teh moment It'll end up being frozen pizza again... it seems to be that quite a bit recently

I'm not blaming you for this, but I sometimes make a dinner like a lasagne for four portions, and freeze the leftovers so I can have instant, but homemade food. Life sucks sometimes when you have to eat alone - and it is better when you have something scrumptious to enjoy.
It only takes the same amount of time and energy to cook a meal in a family sized amount, but I blame you because I know you know all this anyway.
Actually, I blame 2legs, because I offered you the post of but you haven't taken it!

I'm just suffering from not having done a shop in about a fortnight at the moment very limited supplies in and I didn't fancy any of the options I could have properly cooked tonight, so the pizza it was I blame 2legs for tiredness, oldness and pizzaness

I blame 2legs for malfunctioning microwave oven, and the number of pots to wash that causes.
I could also blame him for the Multinational Conspiracy of Malevolent Bureaucrats, but I think I've ranted enough already about them elsewhere.

I'm not sure 2legs can shoulder that much blame! Bureaucrats are probably nighthoover's fault.
I do blame him for the trouble they're causing you, though

Beurocrats are seemingly a problem the world over... two weeks on I'm still trying to make an appointment to have a form signed... by a person who's job it is to sign forms... if only they would actually acknowledge this was their job Mind, that seems a bit simpler even than your problem DQ for which I blame... someone....
I blame 2legs for the smell coming out of my kitchen... and the realisation it won't be ready to eat for nearly two hours I also blame 2legs for not as we speak/type being in the kitchen peeling potatos and carrots and chopping them to add to the simmering pot of goodys
