Just wanted to point out...you know, just in case you didn't notice...whatever...it's cool...

Over at It's not me, It's you, Dochechka (ahem, Innigma) and I joined forces recently and came up with a top ten list of reasons why one should abstain from the well-intended exercise of setting friends up for the perpetual and unavoidable act of awkward social flailing and blundering.
