Well, this is awkward, but my goldfish looked sad and I couldn't leave him alone, so I can't come to the movie. I'll make it up to you, promise.

Example plans excuses

Believable excuses

  • I hate to do this, but my kid came down with a fever, so tonight is off for me. Let's do next weekend instead.
  • Quick update: I barely slept because of the construction next door, so I can't make it tonight. Don't have too much fun without me.
  • Unfortunately, my laptop decided to install a two-hour update, so we'll have to reschedule. Send pictures!

Questionable excuses

  • Plot twist: I got my foot stuck in a bucket, so I'll be about an hour late. I owe you one.
  • You won't believe this, but I got pulled on stage at a street magic show, so I'm going to miss the party. Let's do next weekend instead.
  • Sooo, I got stuck inside my own hoodie, so I'm going to miss the party. Save me a slice.

Absurd excuses

  • Incredibly, a cow that wandered into my building ate my left shoe, so we'll have to reschedule. Save me a slice.
  • Against all odds, a door-to-door salesman who wouldn't leave dragged me to a surprise birthday party, so we'll have to reschedule. Let's pick another day this week.
  • Breaking news: a swarm of suspiciously organised bees covered everything I own in glitter, so I can't come to the movie. I'm genuinely gutted.
