5. I think the admins covered that in the disclaimers.
Would be a pisser, though.

6. And if it wasn't immediately obvious why it was my fault,
I'd help you figure out a way that it could be.

I do that all the time at home, so it wouldn't be a problem.

(PS: Mrs R and I actually do that at home, but as a joke. (Don't want any mistaken impressions here.)

I'll be happy to cover for him.

13. Nothing to worry about, my dear, it would just be that
a significant percentage of the 60,000-plus DUers would see the message, with all its attendant errors, and YOUR NAME IN THE INTERNET EQUIVALENT OF BIG HONKIN' BRIGHT NEON LIGHTS.

Just do what Mrs Grumpy suggest, and blame any errors on me if it happens. I'll be only too happy to take the hit for you.

14. Alrighty then. You're to blame!
Actually, I don't think you have to worry. I'm heading over to the neighbor's to drink beer.

Cheers!

17. But you'll be back some day, and might
be the 15 millionth then.

If so, you know where to point the finger.

10. Or what if it's embarrassing seen out of context, like:

"Well, I was only in bed with both him and her, not to mention the cousins, just for that one night. It's not like I made a habit of it."
