I blame you for not knowing "Rubber", the movie. Because for no f*cking reason...

I blame you FOR knowing the movie Rubber.

I blame you for my avatar looking like a verdant chicken.

I blame you for getting a little too swept up in Dune.

[MarineTech]

I blame you for misinterpreting the point of Starship Troopers. It wasn't about HOW they fought, the whole point of the book is WHY they fight.

[MarineTech]

I blame you for having a one track mind and not being able to see subtle nuance.

[StompingOnTanks]

I blame you for a distinct lack of giant stompy robots in your diet.

I blame you for not emailing me brownies.

[Sparks Murphey]

I blame you for not reminding him that giant stumpy robots are suitable for vegetarians, assuming you take the squishy meat filling out first.

[Sizzles]

I blame you for giant "Stumpy" robots.

[Sparks Murphey]

I blame you for not realising that was intentional. Giant stompy robots are made of elephants, whereas giant stumpy robots are made from all natural tree stumps.

[Sizzles]

I blame you for going green.

I blame you for radioactive Jade Falcon polish on my Mad Cat, no matter how munch other paint you apply it still glows like if I had reactor shielding removed. (don't ask about reactor shielding...)

[Steinar Bergstol]

I blame you for PGI not yet having provided me with my Marauder or Warhammer, radioactive polish or not. Yes, I'm impatient, and it's your fault!

[MarineTech]

I blame you for fjords.

Jeg klandre deg for en oppdagelsesreise i fjordene.

I blame you for attempted butchery of a European dialect.

That was actually pretty good. A couple of minor changes would make it better, but damn good anyways. It'd be "klandrer" instead of "klandre" ("to blame" would be "å klandre", but "I blame you" would be "jeg klandrer deg"). Also you would probably have "en oppdagelsesreise langs fjordene" instead of "i fjordene" unless you jumped into the fjords and started swimming. Basically the difference between along and in.

And I blame Marinetech for me going all language-teachy there. And for calling the Norwegian _language_ a European _dialect_! Remember, there are 5 and a half million of us or so! We could possibly mildly inconvenience a small american town for a few hours if we all got together and decided enough was enough, so you better fear us!

[MarineTech]

I apologize....

SCANDANAVIAN dialect.

I blame you for not offering to just sit down over a beer or an Akevitt, instead of just threatening attack.

What a warmongering people these Norwegians are.

[Virlutris]

I blame you for continuing to call the Norwegian language a dialect, and thereby threatening to touch off hostilities.

Are you deliberately trying to start a fracas? The Norwegian people's patience has limits, you know ...
