What are some of your best excuses?, . Options

[HongKongDong]

I searched and found nothing like this, well somethign similiar but it was for a certain subject.

So post some excuses you've used for.. anytyhing!! HW, work, parents etc.

Heres one I used 2 weeks ago on my co-worker

Heres a little story for it to make some sense-
Everyday at work, I get to the office like 2 hours before my co-worker or my supervisor dude. So what I do is take a nap for about an hour n' a half. Yeah, another bit... the Insurance Agent I work for keeps a box of chocolates on his desk ...

Ok, back to the subject
I was sleeping as usual waiting for everyone... then suddenly my Co-worker came in and was like "What the hell are you doing sleeping on the job?!?!"

(Just like Will Smith I seem to have that ability to seem serious even though im joking around)

"You see what happened was. Some guy came in, and tried to steal the chocolate... he knocked me out... then I guess he put my jacket over me to make it look like I was sleeping... yeah thats what happened"

*Blank stare towards me*

"Shut up and get back to work"

darn him, nothing seems to be able to get passed him

Heres another one I tried using on my AP Bio teacher...

I forgot my science folder at home so...

Ms. B: Rik' wheres your HW?

"Im sorry Ms. B, I accidentally wrote it in dissappearing ink, it wont come back until tommorow... so can I turn it in then?"

Ms. B: *Completely ignores what I said and moves on*

--5 MINUTES LATER--

*Quickly copies friends HW*

"Hey Ms. B! The ink came back quicker then I had expected... can I still turn it in and get full credit?"

Ms. B: Sure w/e, just put it in the tray

=D






So what are some of your best excuses?

The Evil Monkey in my closet ate it

---and---

I ate it

[FoOd]

Never had work experiences....yet

But for school,

I said that my backpack was ransacked by someone and they took everything away.

Also "My pet died"

[Looow]

My pet ate it is such a classic.

LOL. How about "I lost my homework?"

[aznxdreamer]

i didnt feel good, fell asleep, etc.

[HongKongDong]

you guys are boring... c'mon wheres the good stuff?
lol

[Shattered_Hope]

"I was sick"---Normally excuses don't work in most of my classes. The only class it works in is English...But when I use these excuses, I normally mean it...

[EXPLO5ION]

"I didn't do my hw caause I suddenly felt the need to study Newton's laws of motion... I got blown away."

It worked.

[kana-p]

"I was... abducted by an alien?" o.O;

[*Solipsist*]

^ low blow.

" Did you do your homework? "
" No. "
" Why not? "
" It didn't interest me. "

"It was my twin..." <<; >>;

ahahaha........

i'm not jocking.......... it's my photographic memory

[WhiteLotus*]

"I left [ insert object here] at home"
Psssh, yea right.

[xSiLLyMex]

"U never told us it was due today?" haha..I dont kno. =\

[kryzcoak47luv666]

^^^
yeah that always works for us
I usually do forget and they never believe me
I just say I was absent that day, I miss so much school they can't tell the difference

[liloandstitchx3]

i did my homework but i left it at home.

[jnukes]

once i was late to basketball practice with two of my other friends cause they came over .. we were late by like 30 minutes because we were recording a song ..

so then my brother drops us off to practice .. and then coach asks us why we were late .. and i said "well .. my brother overslept .. and we didn't realize what time it was .. so .. yeah .." ..

had to run like 5 suicides and thats it, heh ..

[xenosaga]

just some corny ones..when i leave for another place for two days during school, when i came back with a note i put down "had a family emergency"

[lovescream]

COOOOOL, YOU HAVE A JOBBB.

*nod*

for homework.. my best excuse is "I forgot it at home" [; even if sometimes i really didnt.
what's great is that i dont get a detention for it [sometimes] because my teacher is uberrrrr nice!

[xTINAA]

I usually speak to my teachers privately after class if I didn't do the homework and I say something like, I left it at home or my computer broke or my printer ran out of ink. Then I try to sound really sad and depressed about it and really stressed out and I start to get teary eyed. Then I apologize a million times so then they say it's okay for me to turn it in later. Today I wanted to ditch Spanish and I had already seen her and in fact borrowed her book like an hour before class (the teacher.) So like a minute before class starts I start running to class and get my keys and cell phone out and by time I see her I look all frazzled and out of breath and I gave her the book and I was like, "Omg. My dad just called me. I have a family emergency. I have to go." And I ran away. Haha. Uhm there are other excuses but I can't remember them right now. Oh I've also used the excuse of car trouble or sleeping in.

[xenosaga]

^ that's a cool excuse i like the last one..i should try that one time!

[HongKongDong]

Hahaha.. for some reason Jose's made me laugh... I might use that one day.

Chrissy... thats great I might use that but if they get on me about why I didn't clear my absence with the "family emergency"

[Juicy <3]

"I had really really bad period cramps...."

Male teachers normally get put off by that, and say I can hand it in the next day or something

[Tung]

whenever i want to sleep in class, i do sleep. and my teacher tell me to wake up. and i say my contacts are hurting my eyes, and they let me rest my eyes..ahahhaha

[miss barnes]

i'll say my hw is in my locker if i know its a teacher that wont let me go to the locker...that way she'll say to turn it in tomorrow

[shortiiex]

we had homework?
----
someone stole it
----

[*jooleeah*]

I just say " I'm sorry" and try to look really sad. Usually teachers fall for it =P Though most of the time I mean what I say. I hate turning things in late.

[iheartsimba]

ohhh I'm good at excuses.

Can't recall any, but I can act so innocent
It's more how you present the excuse not what it is...but mine are just the common ones.

[*mzkandi*]

"he/she made me do it!" *points to random unsuspecting person*

[loljuliana]

Most of the time, I do my homework during homeroom. But when I forget a project or something, I just say that it's at home. I`m not good with excuses =)

But I've always wanted to say
-- I was walking down the stairs.
The cat ran infront of me and i fell and hit a chair, face first
My homework flew ahead and landed in a bird`s nest.
The bird thought it was her baby and took it away.
And then i went to the hospital because I broke my nose.

[avalon*]

I'm not really proud of it, but we were supposed to send in our essays online to turnitin.com, so they can be checked for plagiarism. Our teacher said that if we don't turn it in online within a certain time frame, then we get a zero on our paper. Usually the online type things have glitches, and I forgot to turn mine in, so I told her there was an error...and I got a B. Yeah.

[IamRad]

" i had the urge to read it, u read too slow mr. nutttttttt."

"um i forgot all my spanish, can u teach it to me?" - to spanish teacher

ur excuses made me laugh =P

[AngelTears]

^ low blow.

" Did you do your homework? "
" No. "
" Why not? "
" It didn't interest me. "

- Solipsist

LOL!! Thats the best one ever.

Erm, I told my teacher that we had a family emergency which involved my sister and the police and that I couldnt do my homework because we were baleing her out of Jail..

I made a good impression with my teacher! ^^

[glit_gal]

if it's hw that i forgot to do for english or great issues, than i'll say that my printer wasn't working or that i forgot it.

[DanielleMaria05]

OMG! Like my parents never let me go anywhere, so, i have to lie to them to let me go.

Like for instance. I'm "on the senior committee" and I have lots of "meetings" when in reality, I'm just out with friends. LOL. I love it.

[sunissed14127]

I ususally just tell my teachers I was sick last night & they usually let me make it up.

[blah122986]

uh......i spun muh car out street racin...i told muh peeps uhh...duh steering wheel just jurk to da left and i spun onto da curb.....me and muh friends stuck 3 long azz nails in one of da tires to make it look like it was da nails fault...hehehe...

[*lolita kitty*]

for homework? if im truly lying, i say i left it at home. if im just playing around, theni usually say "the evil furbys came out of their graveyard and ate it while i was sleeping"

[mouse_3k]

"I forgot"
"I lost my homwork folder"

[dreamerOi]
