Excusions

An excuse disguised as a solution
It seems today all we get is deception, lies, lip service and excusions from our elected officials.

Good Art Has No Excuses

A saying which states that one artist (a writer, painter, author, musician, etc.) should be allowed to only make art for himself and not for random people he doesn't know, but should keep in mind that it should not excuse him from making poor quality art.
As a writer, I only write for myself and not random strangers who read my novels, but that doesn't excuse me from writing good quality books. Every artist should know that good art has no excuses. Ever.

Excuse

An excuse is just some persons reason for something and another person not agreeing with it (person not agreeing is the person calling things an excuse)
*over text*
Grandma: “Where are you?”

You: “School why?”

Grandma: “You did not go to school they called me. You missed three classes at school and you owe paper work and forms for me to sign that you have not handed in. Are you dropping out of school????”

You: “I was late that was why, it happened in Warwick multiple times. I have the paper work but you kinda haven't been home every single day I get home from school”

You (cont): “And no I'm not dropping out”

You (again): “Now I gotta go, I have global right now. I need to makeup work”

You attends class///

Grandma: “They will not keep you in school if you continue not to go. You can always put the paper work in my mailbox for me to sign. No excuses for this You, you need to attend classes in order to graduate and move on with your life. Think about it

You: “I have been attending. It would be nice for me to have it quickly signed and I can take it where I’m staying so I can hand it in immediately, and it’s not excuses. It’s just me giving reasons that you don’t agree with or like”

Bucket Excuse

An excuse that has been used so many times that nobody believes it anymore. It's no good, so you throw it in the bucket with all the other worn-out excuses.
Parent: Have you done your homework yet?
Kid: I can't find it. It must have fallen out of my backpack.
Parent: That's the third time you've used that excuse! Throw that bucket excuse in the bucket and get your homework out!

headphones excuse

Refers to your wearing a personal music-device that uses a headset of some sort, and then "blaming it on that" whenever someone complains that you appear to be ignoring him, when of course in reality you actually heard what he said just fine because **the headphones weren't even playing at the time**, but you were merely practicing "selective deafness" because you didn't happen to like what he had to say, and so you did not wish to respond to and/or be affected by whatever he was telling you.
The headphones excuse can also be "used in reverse" in instances where you are being compelled to be present during a speech, lecture, tirade, etc., and you cannot bear to listen to said boring/controversial/voluminous b**ls**t for even a few seconds... what you do, therefore, is clip on your headphone-based music-device that's hidden inside an outer plastic cabinet that you have boldly labelled, "personal amplified listening device", so that the speaker and anyone else present will think that you are just wanting to ensure that you'll be clearly hearing every single word that the self-important gabber is saying, when in reality you are using the headphones to DROWN HIM OUT so that you won't either need a straitjacket or commit mass-homicide halfway through said extended monologue. It's a vital accessory if you're being "drugged as a child" because your parents "drug you to church".
