I'm avoiding homework. So, anyone want to entertain me and keep me avoiding homework?

Tell me...what's your favorite excuse for not doing something?
Or, what's the funniest excuse someone has used on you?

Or any random excuse story you got! I'm down with anything right now...:agree:giggle
 
Who me?
No one else in room.
I say
Davondre, would you take out the garbage?
Who me?
Staring contest.
I win.
 
I sleep. LOL

ACTUALLY, you know, I’m having a hard time answering this, and here’s why:

Not to get all serious on ya...but
About a year and a half ago I didn’t like me much. I was depressed, lazy, and full of excuses. I felt horrible about myself, and it affected all of my relationships. As I cried in front of the mirror, I promised myself no more excuses - I am going to do what must be done when it must be done, regardless of whether I feel like it or not.

That began a journey in Which just about everything in my life was transformed, and I rarely make excuses any more.

That said...

One of the funniest excuses our daughter ever made was when she was about 6. She was cussing up a blue streak and I was so mad. I asked her what made her think she could use such filthy language and she said, “I can’t help it. I inherited it from Daddy!”
 
“I can’t help it. I inherited it from Daddy!”
That's awesome! I love it!
I totally get you on the excuses thing. I was more thinking generally. Like

Sorry I'm late, my car wouldn't start because it was too cold. {True story}
Or
My brother in law that you could tell him something started an hour earlier than it did. And he would still show up late! One time it was: I was coming, but the police told me I had to mow the lawn today or they were going to cite me.
