No one is allowed to mention your name

On WHOSE fucking authority?

Hym "Who, oh, who is there to blame... When no one is allowed to mention your name... And as I sit and ponder thus... One thing springs to mind... If I trade in my Ps4 for store credit at Gamestop today, I might be able to afford a Ps5 and Baldur's Gate 3.... And that would be dope... I don't know if I can get Mk1 too though... Hmm... 🤔 What to do..."

Neglected to mention the drag

When you grossly underreport the circumstances of an event in a desperate attempt to save face and escape the consequences of your negligence.

GM's Cruise robotaxi company filed a report with the DMV regarding an accident in which a robotaxi hit a pedestrian and drug them 20 feet. The company is now being held liable for filing a false report, as in their report, they neglected to mention the drag, which caused the victim serious injuries
