Excuses

To play this game, person one posts a reason for an excuse. The next person then posts an excuse for it, and give another reason for an excuse. :)

RULES:
1. No posting an excuse that you (or anyone else) have used before.
2. General Forum Rules Apply.


EXAMPLE:
Person 1: You are late for band practice.

Person 2: My guitar broke and I needed to re-tune it.
You broke my vase.

Person 3: I was trying to recapture my pet mouse, Chuckles, because you're deathly afraid of mice, and your vase just got in the way.
You just stepped on my foot!

To start off:

You ate all the plum kuchen I baked today.

Oh, great idea! I think I might have a bit of a talent for this game! ;)

I was feeling depressed, and when I feel depressed, I compulsively eat everything in reach!

You sat on my laptop and crushed it.

I didn't see it because it blended perfectly with the seat cushion.

You spilled grape jelly on my favorite shirt.

I tripped and your shirt broke my fall.

You let the dog chew on all my shoes.

I was too busy to notice you had left all your shoes on the back doorstep when the dog whined in pain, because your shoes disagreed with his insides.

You left the side gate open & now the dog has wandered off.

I had to answer an important call and forgot to close it.

You left car window open and it rained, now the seats are wet.

Wasn't it just as well the car windows were left open, when the reason for the original wetness happened when I was returning the dog back home to his own backyard?

You didn't put away your golf buggy properly, so the car was scratched when I reverse parked it in the garage.

I thought it was ok where it was, I was in a hurry and just set it down.

You forgot to buy strawberries, so I cant make my strawberry cheesecake.

I couldn't buy strawberries as they seemed to be out of stock right now due to the drought. Could you use blueberries instead?

You used up all our hot water last night when you had that very long shower, now we will have to wait until mid morning before anyone else can have a wash. :(

You're always telling me not to fall asleep in the bath, so I was saving time by falling asleep in the shower instead.

You left the car's lights on and now the battery's flat.

The car's battery was already flat yesterday & I need to see you about getting it replaced first.

You didn't buy any torch batteries when shopping, so now the torches are all flat as well.

He is coming because he's going to fix all the things that you needed to call someone in to do.

You forgot to take out the trash. ;))

I was busy playing video games I had to get to level 50 so I forgot my chores.

You forgot to mow the lawn.

I mowed the lawn last week, and it has rained since then. Would you like to take a turn mowing the lawn once it stops raining for long enough?

You prepared a cold meat salad for our dinner instead of the baked dinner we all agreed to have.

Something went wrong with the stove so I settled for a salad.

You brought home the wrong book, I said Hound of Baskervilles.
