Nothing is ever my fault. I've long had the uncanny ability to come up with someone or something else to blame. (This bugs the hell out of Hubster like you wouldn't believe!)
I'll have no rational 'splanation but the blamee will be culpable, nonetheless. (Because I said so, that's why.)
Now, for a small fee, I can offer this service to you. Step right up and tell me your problems. I will offer a scapegoat to you at the low, low price of 5¢.
For instance: I had a rotten week at work where everything was broken and I was the one who had to fix it. I Reaganomics.
So ... what's troubling you?
(I'll just go to bed for the night while y'all mull it over.)
I can't find a "the doctor is in" smiley, so now I'm going to have to make one myself. I'm really finding it hard not to Sharon, Doctor. Who else's fault can it be?

Well, as I stated previously, nothing is ever MY fault. You just haven't looked hard enough. I find that Tom Cruise makes an excellent scapegoat. He's annoying and beautiful, which makes it pretty easy to hate him. Dump on the Scientology and couch-jumping schtick and voila! Instant nutcase who's responsible for many things, not just the departure of South Park's Chef.
I have to work tomorrow. This means I'll be sitting around waiting for the 'phone to ring and won't be able to go out and potter around it the garden.
If it weren't for the Industrial Revolution, no one would have thought of technology to save us from it. (You do know that sitting around with only the telephone for company was a way to get out of running those loud machines, don't you?)
According to Wikipedia, the development of the steam engine (steam locomotive to you) started the IR in Great Britain. There are several inventors eligible for blame there so I'll pick one for you.
I'm 35 years old with few professional skills and no idea what I want to do with my life.
I know you're not implying that's MY fault!
I had no idea what to do with my life, either. A happy accident is the only thing that got me any skillz. BUT ... I do remember what made me so indecisive with my life: Saturday morning cartoons! Why would I want to go out and get a job when I could spend my off days from school lounging around on the living room floor, glued to the TV?
So ... Saturday morning cartoons, especially the Warner Brothers variety.
I'm two years older than Godless Dave and no better off. It can't be my fault, so whose fault is it?
This one is easy. If you actually used the mad IT skillz we know you possess for shallow employment, then you wouldn't have time to keep this magical board running. (Or is it the magic to keep this timely board running ...?) A higher power obviously had this plan for you from the beginning.
However, now I have another problem. NC_Kev's blame allocation table is appallingly misaligned. Who should I blame for that debacle?
Since it involves a computer, I would say the falls squarely on Microsoft. But, thanks to my superior Microsoft problem correcting skills, the table is now beautifully aligned.
Well, that is my layperson opinion, of course. I would never want to encroach upon the skills of the resident professional. I merely lay my humble opinion upon her table, and hope she will offer her wisdom.
My PVC piping busted another seal last night, and I had to do without water and wait for daylight to fix it. Now, I installed all of that pipe, but it obviously can't be MY fault. Whom should I blame for this annoyance?
Hey! It's clearly stipulated in the OP that nothing is Sharon's fault. I bet you touch everything marked with a "Do not touch" sign too, doncha? Damn contrarians.
