5. "I'm a full time grad student! I can't afford these library fines! Do you think it is fair to |
|
make a full time grad student get a job when I am working on my masters!"
My answer- "I work 40 hours a week, and make A's in my masters program. You are responsible for your library fines."

9. Another school-related one |
|
When askng for an extension on a paper a full two weeks before the due date: "The night before the paper is due is my 21st birthday, and I'll be too hammered to write it. Can I turn it in late?"
Response: "Ummm, what? You know you're allowed to do these earlier than the day they're due, right?"

6. This pretty good: "I got busy and forgot" Fmr OK Speaker Lance Cargill |
|
OKLAHOMA CITY -- Former House Speaker Lance Cargill is planning to mail out 6,000 letters -- at state expense -- to apologize to his constituents for failing to pay his taxes on time. .... In a copy of the letter obtained by the Tulsa World, Cargill said when he got busy with House leadership duties, "regrettably, I often put my personal business and finances on the back burner."
In addition, Cargill, R-Harrah, was late six years in a row in paying the property taxes on his Harrah law office.

7. Straight from the lips of my first wife: |
|
"I wasn't lying. I was just saying what needed to be said at the time."
Top that!

11. "I meant to call (or write) but I've been *sooooo* busy!" |
|
Heard that more times than I care to remember.
Also... "I would've called but I lost your number!"--Yeah? Ever hear of the phone book?
These two I heard quite often when I was dating.

12. Guns don't kill people. People kill people. |
|
Then why did they need the gun? Could they have done just as much damage empty handed?

13. "I didn't enjoy it....um I don't remember it." |
|
the excuse came up because he got pissed at me for bullshitting about something and went on a spirited diatribe about "personal honesty" I listened to him for about 5 minutes before hitting him with " oh yea speaking of personal honesty why is you never told me about the three times you fucked my girlfriend?"
complicated story but my musical partner, when I finally told him I knew that he had been screwing my long time girlfriend first said, " I didn't enjoy it." I replied "neither did she." He then said, "um I don't remember it."
for me the funny part was that the screwing had been done years before this conversation, my girlfriend had always wanted to boff my partner and I always told her she should if she got a chance. she and I were pretty honest about screwing others and didn't play games with eachother. when it happened I wasn't angry or hurt and my girlfriend banged him a couple of times before moving on.She told me about it shortly after the first time she & I are still friends, he & I are still musical partners. he lives in fear of her and she & I & my wife think the situation is funny. for some reason he hasn't brought up "personal honesty" with me ever since.
