[17:27:20] Neel> I do need an excuse for getting out of work tomorrow, though.
[17:27:24] Neel> So I can go get drunk in Santa Cruz.
[17:27:32] Neel> And ride the roller coasters and vomit.
[17:27:40] Neel> For 65 cents.

Think tank, go.

did you ever get you appendex, tonsiles, or wisedom teeth removed? If not pick one of them and take more then one day for it, cuz usually (or so I heard, cuz I never had any of those) it takes a bit to heal.

Your Mom beat you up because she's like the Shinra, so you're taking her to court.

July 19th happens to be [insert fake holiday here] from you homeland, [insert country here].

Example:
"Sorry boss, but July 19th happen to be Go Streaking Through Omaha Day back in my home country, Sweden. See ya on the 20th."

Works 60% of the time, every time. :cool:

You have to go to the temple for your second cousin's third wedding, she is such a wonderful girl - a good little Indian girlie, to be sure - ...she'll be so upset if you don't come to the wedding and dance and stuff your face and give her presents. :(

Tell your boss that it's that time of month, and you're having killer cramps. Works for me.

phone in and say "i won't be in work today because I can't be arsed, sack me & I'll kill your family" or you can say "I'm not well, I think it's flu". You need to weigh up which answer best suits your needs.

Say it's a religious holiday. Call it.. *looks around* Maximum Occupancy Day.

EDIT: I knew there was something fishy with how I spelt that word. :D

Step 1: Get: Lots of ketchup, a fake gun, some old clothes, a massive credit card bill and a really bad quality camera (hence the ketchup - fake blood here would be silly). alternatively, you can choose a black and white camera and use chocolate sauce instead of ketchup. This is your choice. Personally I favour the black and white with chocolate sauce because it gives it that extra feeling you've actually died, and you possibly died sometime ago. (before the invention of color)
Step 2: Then: Fake your own suicide! Your work buddies/classmates would never be more delighted and surprised to see you back in one piece in about a week or two.

Just call in and say something entirely unrelated to a normal work day has sprung up in your personal life and you need to attend to it immediately.

EDIT: Do I get that $.65 or is that how much it'll cost you to get drunk and have roller coasters. If so, you my friend are an easy date.

DK
07-19-2005, 05:24 AM
I thought that was the way you liked your dates? ;o

07-19-2005, 05:41 AM
Man, Kyono's on a roll today. xDDDDD

It's 65 cents per roller coaster ride, 65 cents per beer, and so on. At that rate, it should take $7.80 to get me drunk and $0.65 to get me to vomit. :p

DK
07-19-2005, 02:05 PM
So, did you manage to get out of work? :}

Del, honey; this isn't how to get bubble gum out of your hair. This is how to cheat your way out of work. :)

Miriel
07-20-2005, 02:03 AM
No, mayonnaise really works. ;)

People joked too much -- your valid response follows:

call in sick

DUh. We're allowed two days of sick leave per month here in HOng Kong. At least you should have one.
