The way I see it, if he's gone either
A) I had nothing to do with it - thus have no reason to be sorry.

B) I did it - thus have no reason to be sorry.

Explain.


Context

If somebody is talking trash about Dumbledore's beard and you disagree, the first example is correct.

If you and numerous people are taking a vote on the fabulousness of Dumbledore's beard and most of the group votes against his beard, the second would be correct.

Welcome to the English language, where most differences are stupid but are still differences nonetheless.

The person who created the English language was obviously high at the time. Thank you for making my life miserable.

It's fairly easy for native English speakers. If English is your second language though, good luck.

Delicious: highly pleasant to the taste.
Yummy: (of food) delicious.

Those two are simple. Yummy is just the informal synonym of delicious.

fair, but i was pointing out that there is more than one option if you did it. We were not discussing the reasonableness of the said action.
