The Best excuses for not having done your homework!
The old cliché of blaming the dog for eating ones homework
no longer works as an excuse nowadays. However being wrongly declared dead or
frightening ghosts might just work. Or try espionage or being held at gunpoint.
These are just some of the excuses that make up the litany of odd reasons
students have used to explain why they have not completed their homework. John
Curry a lecturer in computing at City of Bath College compiled the bizarre list
of downright strange but legitimate reasons that pupils have used. Feel pity for
the poor student who was mistaken for a spy and held in China. He then had the mammoth
task of convincing his teacher that it had actually happened. Another unfortunate
student was granted an extension after the Indian government tried to seize his
home after he had been declared legally dead. Blaming the dog for eating ones work is too flimsy an excuse to cut the mustard these days. About time we dogs
were let off the hook. Have you ever destroyed documents you shouldn’t have?
Mine was a passport and very tasty it was too!
Don’t
forget it is back to school at Blogville so pop over to Frankie to see all the classes and
why not pop over to Sarge to
get your backpack decorated.
Hi Molly
ReplyDeleteWell.... Mom told me that when I was a puppy I ate the electricity bill..... but that wasn't a problem... why should she pay the bill ??? I don't need electricity, I can see perfectly at night !!

Thank Dog the kids are back to school, there is more room for us in the park now!
ReplyDeleteDip Bridge and Elliot x
Floyd and I have eaten all sorts of documents, no homeworks yet though...
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, I will now use the excuse that I was held up at gunpoint. Much more believable!! BOL!
ReplyDeleteI do like a good slipper chew!
ReplyDeleteHi Molly
ReplyDeleteYou are looking very studious today and I L O V E your glasses...very Vogue!
As for registering..at one point Frankie had a list of the 'teachers' on his blog. The teachers were supposed to post a registration blog post. And I think you can register up until September 10 or 11. If you would like to register for our class let us know
Hugs Madi your BFFF
You sure look great in glasses! I ate Mom's phone info book hehe.
ReplyDeleteLovies, Miss Mindy
I've been to Bath! But not the college.
ReplyDeleteJimmy used to LOVE to shred all of the junk mail when he was a pup!
teeeheee.....as a teacher, I heard the best. But "MY DOG ATE MY HOMEWORK" actually was used a couple of times......I quickly told my students that that was the oldest excuse in the book.....some of them actually did tell the truth and simply said, "I had hockey practice....I went shopping.....I didn't want to do it." OK....CHECK! ZERO FOR YOU!
ReplyDeleteI tell ya, dogs get the bad end of the stick, don't they Miz Molly!!!!!! You look like my fourth grade teacher with those glasses!!!!!!!
With a lot of homework on Ipads and such it would be hard to use us for an excuse anyway. Don't think I have ever eaten an important paper.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Well, I did eat my mom's slippers, hats, and gloves before and I had no excuse for doing any of it except maybe I need my mom to buy me some REAL toys! That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!
ReplyDeleteXOXO-Daisy
Molly you are looking rather teacherish today! Mom said she has used the excuse that she spilled coffee on her paperwork....it didn't work! Or her computer has a virus and all her work disappeared..(did happen) we don't eat paper at our house, we just shred it!
ReplyDeletestella rose

ReplyDeleteThe dogs haven't eaten any homework yet, but I would bet Sassy would if it were left unattended!
ReplyDeleteYou look very studious, Molly!
ReplyDeleteI have never eaten impawtant papers but I have had the odd sock or two :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day Molly xx00xx
I like to eat bills, it's a good snack - not too much calories...otherwise storage cards, I ate one and had 2 gigabyte inside me - unfortunately I didn't found a converting tool for calories in gigabyte since yet...
ReplyDeleteI love your glasses! I don't like to eat paper. I did try it once, but found it a tad on the bland side!!

ReplyDeleteWhen I was little I ate a couple of pages of Beth's book.... You look VERY smart, my friend!
ReplyDeleteNo papers, but I did chew on the bottom of the couch when I was young ;)
ReplyDeleteStewey
Those are some over the top excuses! I've actually never destroyed any document but I can't say the same about Mommy's toys (when I was a puppy)...heh heh heh.
ReplyDeleteLove, Whisky
LOVE your look. Very intelligent and stylish. Thanks for all your comments over at Fidos. LOVE your blog!!!
ReplyDeleteDear Molly,
ReplyDeleteI honestly really truly did eat my littlest person's homework one day. Well, I chewed on the corner anyways. And bounced on it a few times. It made a great sound under my paws.
But I am much older now, and much more dignified. I would never do that. Maybe.
Licks,
Cobi
You ate a passport? That is very international of you! Bet your peeps were not happy about that one. So far we only have eaten wood things but we are young yet so the possibilities are endless!
ReplyDeleteYour friends,
Murphy & Stanley
This has to be the cutest picture have ever seen! Molly your blog posts are always so interesting! How i missed reading your blog while i was on holidays! I'm having a bit more time to myself this week and i think i'll finally be able to properly thank you in public for the award you gave me!
ReplyDeleteLots of love,
Indigo the Great Dane.
Gee, we've never eaten anything important before. We need to work on this!
ReplyDeleteLove ya lots,
Mitch and Molly
YOu look ever so intelligent Molly wearing those glasses. We can only assume you off to school later this week as you appear to have all your school items at the ready. Hope you have enough bone money...
ReplyDeleteMolly, Taffy, Monty and Winnie
Have a great "back to school" week!
ReplyDeleteMom works with bad people. You should hear the excuses, BOL
ReplyDeleteBenny & Lily
yep kids can't say that dogs ate their homework because everything is done on the computer nowadays!
ReplyDeleteMy lady wonders if she can use, "my dog ate the wall" to get out of going to work.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great day, Hailey and Zaphod
I think this is a dog's owner issue! Cats love to study and do homework! My suggestion is to remove owls as a symbol of inteligence and cats assume that task...
ReplyDeleteLicks from Pink
We love you in glasses... reminds us of our favorite librarian! :)
ReplyDeleteShelle, Milo, Dixie and Newby,

Beijos e tudo de bom!!!

I ate a dollar bill one time, it was pretty tasty, but Mommy cut me off on that. A passport sounds yummy.
ReplyDeleteLoveys Sasha
Mowzers...declared DEAD? My only claim to destruction was legit...after all, Mommy*DID* call is pee-mail...
ReplyDeleteYowzers....
ReplyDeleteYes, I really was given all those excuses. Of course, I was more sympathetic if they mentioned a dog in their excuse.
ReplyDeleteHi Molly,
ReplyDeleteYeah blame it on the dog.........heard it all before, what about the lecturer who lost it some where between his home and the class room, did he give himself detention or a 100 lines, guess not!
