A telemarketer called the other day and I told them my mother had just died.
What excuses have you guys used?

there was a comedian who was talking about how after they'd ask if he wanted what they were selling he'd say "well, not really, i don't see the point. you see, i'm going to kill my self, unless you can give me a reason not to" and see what happens.

I usually speak in Greek in the UK, so they close the phone at once.
It is not a good solution though, since a cyprus guy was on the phone once and understood everything I was telling him about his mother... :-(

whenever im late for work college i usualy just say stuff like
"sorry im late i got my foot stuck in a drain!"
or even better if its a nice day outside say
"sorry im late i got lost in the fog!"
and if you get an annoying telephone salesperson fire one of those rape alarm thingies down the reciever!

i think the best excuse i've ever heard was from my friend michelle. when ever she'd be late getting home, no matter how late she is. this was her excuse.
"i fell" i miss her
