It's going to be lame and I don't want to go. Help me think of an excuse to get out of it.

1. I was dead at the time.

Eddie Izzard's Dressed To Kill gives you all the best excuses you can possibly ever need. Tell them you didn't do it. You were dead at the time. Or you could ask them if they have a flag.

6. Jake Blues' excuse pretty much covers it. Modified a little for your situation.

No, I can't. Honest. I've run outta gas. I have a flat tire. I don't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from outta town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake, a terrible flood, locust's. It isn't my fault!! I swear to God!!
