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.

smiley - sigh

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 smiley - headhurts 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 smiley - headhurtssmiley - wah

smiley - dragon , 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.

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 smiley - chefbut you haven't taken it!

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.
