The dog ate my homework and other classic excuses...

[whattingawhat]

Excuses I’ve used:

1. Mr. Flutie: You burned down the gym…
Me: I did, I really did but…You’re not seeing the big picture here, I mean, that gym was full of vampi-asbestos.

2. Um... uh, there was a, a cat. A cat here, and, um, then there
was a-another cat... and they fought. The cats. And... then they left.

3. Mr. Giles asked me to go get a book for him.

4. He/She/It hurt my boyfriend.

5. She touched my umbrella.

6. Sacred duty…yadda yadda yadda

7. You have fruit punch mouth.

8. I’m going to give them a normal prom if I have to kill everyone on the face of this earth to do it.

9. Kicking ass is comfort food.

10. I've got a mountain of homework to do, and, um... my mom's not
really feeling well, and she could probably use my help, and, um, to be
truthful I'm not really feeling all that well myself.

11. That I'm, uh... in a band. A-a rock band with
Spike here.

ETABecause Faith pointed out that really nothing tops this one...

12. Sorry, I was busy being DEAD.
