Craziest excuse ever..

Well.. I really haven't used any fascinating excuses except that like i'm way too lazy to vacuum or just clean the house or whatever. I once told my mom i think that the hose broke so i didn't have to water the flowers, and she believed me and then i just sat inside. Watering the flowers isn't hard but it was hot as heck outside that day so i decided not to water, i still can't believe to this day that she believed me because she is religious about having her flowers watered so they don't die. She gets really upset if her flowers die. The biggest excuse i have ever heard is that my dog ate my homework, i swear i usually hear that twice a week here. I couldn't use that excuse, but i could use the excuse my cat ate my homework because i have a cat and not a dog.
