A list of funny excuses to use to get out of doing things you don't want to do.

A list of funny excuses to use to get out of doing things you don't want to do.

You have just plopped down on your comfy recliner with a glass of your favorite wine in one hand and the TV remote in the other. You are ready to finally enjoy some relaxation time while watching your favorite TV show.

And then it happens! Your phone does the little vibration dance on the coffee table, disturbing the peaceful moment that you had hoped would last more than a measly thirty seconds. You haven't even tasted your wine or turned the television set on. You wish you could just ignore the call, but what if it is from that hot date you had the other night?

So, you reluctantly pick up the phone and realize it is a number you know far too well. Unfortunately, it is not Miss What's-Her-Name. It is your friend Billy, the one you have simply for the benefits. He is rich and buys you expensive toys like new cars and 60" TVs. In fact, Billy bought the TV you were about to watch, but Billy doesn't know that you are playing him for his money. Still, you have to pick up his call if you want more nice gifts!

Reaching for the phone, you know you are in for some trouble. You remember the time Billy invited you over to a worn down, dilapidated house that stunk of dirty laundry and rotten eggs for a cut-throat game of UNO you pretended to enjoy. Why did you go? Because you couldn't think of an excuse.

We all know that if we try to think of an excuse on the spot, we will get caught red-handed. It is easy to spot a fib when someone is stuttering and pausing every five seconds.

For all of you wishful thinkers, I am sorry but unfortunately, these excuses will fail 98% of the time, and even that percentage is inaccurate! The moral of the story is that sometimes, playing UNO may not be the worst thing after all. Just bring a gas mask to stifle the smell of dirty laundry. And you had better win the UNO game!
