Excuses & Social Etiquette FAQ
Are these excuses actually believable?
Most of our excuses are designed for humor and satire. While some "Technical Difficulties" might sound real, most (like the goldfish crisis) are clearly jokes. Use with caution!
Can I use these for my boss?
We recommend using these for friends and family first. Unless your boss has a legendary sense of humor, telling them you're in a "time loop" might lead to a performance review.
What is the most popular category?
The "Social" and "Technology" categories are user favorites. Technology excuses are particularly effective in the modern remote-work era.
Is it okay to use white lies?
Our tool is for entertainment. In real life, clear and honest communication is usually best, but a funny excuse can sometimes soften a difficult "no."
