Can someone explain these lines to me?

[BlueJay]

In #1, Xander says "We don't want another Orvieto." What is he referencing?

In #20, it starts out with Buffy slaying these demons and she says each time, "Can't say I didn't warn you!" and then when she stakes a vampire, she says "Can't say I - oh, grrr, I guess I can..."
I didn't understand that last part at all. Wouldn't it have made more sense if she said "Can't say I - oh, grrr, I guess you can't."?

In #21, Harmony says "I've got urine running down my leg!" Was that line supposed to be funny? It was awkward reading it.

There's more that I know puzzled me in the past, but I need to reread the issues.

Apparently it was just a reference to some past instance when Andrew made a poor choice of a group of Slayers to take with him when dealing with a crisis.

She didn't warn that vampire, so she can say she didn't warn him. Might have made more sense to say "I guess you can," but she was apparently talking to herself.

Either she wet herself with excitement at seeing a celebrity, or one of her dogs peed on her (which would be odd if it made it all the way to her leg.)

It was a strange line. Even stranger because, I presume, vampires don't urinate. I presume she was speaking figuratively.

Oh cool, thanks! But what is/was Orvieto?

There is a city in Italy called ORVIETO. I'm guessing that's probably what Xander was referencing; Andrew had taken his "best-dressed", instead of "best" girls on a mission, and it presumably ended disastrously.
