Friends: They're always inviting you to their stupid sh*t. Birthday drinks, improv shows, parties that aren't within 200 feet of your bed you name it! Fortunately, when it's cold and terrible outside during winter, it's easy to skip this sh*t, because you can just text your friend "sorry, it sucks outside" and miss their thing and they have to be cool with it because they'd totally skip your thing too if the situation were reversed.
When it's NICE outside, however, skipping your friends' sh*t becomes much more difficult. So difficult, in fact, that many people simply give up and actually attend the shit. This is a classic amateur mistake, and one that, after reading this post, you'll never have to make again! Here are 8 Surefire Excuses To Skip Your Friends' Stupid Sh*t Now That It's Nice Out:
Arrrggghh! Stupid last-minute work thing! Sorry, friendy ol pal, I gotta stay late in the office to finish this big annoying presentation while I eat Chinese food out of a carton in a dark office with my dress shirt sleeves rolled up slightly. Dang this job to heck!
Yes, my job is interning twice a week for a web startup that's designing two apps that are already redundant, but emergency last-minute stuff comes up all the time. My boss is such a Samantha! Ahh crap, gotta go do more WORK STUFF, a clerk just came by and dropped a HUGE stack of papers on my "To Do" pile that now comically dwarfs my "Done" pile.
Have a good three-person improv show at the theater inside the Check Cashing place! Text me if the Gay Obama character makes an appearance!
