Tell me the most creative way you were turned down by a Japanese person

I invited someone out tonight and they told me they couldn’t meet because their “wallet got stolen and their cards are being used illegally so they cant meet for a while”. It reminded me of another time when a girl said she had to cancel because she “chipped her tooth on a sandwich and had to go to the dentist”. Lol

What are your favorite/funniest/most memorable excuses you’ve been given?
