I meant my other Grandma

When somebody points out that the excuse you just gave is not plausible, you admit defeat and say "I meant my other Grandma" to offer another, alternative but also implausible excuse.

Comes from the Irish soccer player Stephen Ireland, who refused to play a match as he said his Grandma had died. When it was proven she was alive, he then used the excuse "I meant my other Grandma" (who was also alive).
"Hey dude, want to go and grab a beer?"
"I can't, I have to study for my exam"
"We don't have any exams until April"
"I meant my other Grandma"

"Want to go catch a movie?"
"I can't, I'm meeting Leo"
"Leo is on vacation in Mexico"
"I meant my other Grandma"

The usually holographic light shifting in the middle of one of SimplyNailogical's videos. Cristine will link the polish in the description. I recommend it.

Significant Other Dependency Syndrome or SODS effects millions of north americans. The symptoms include but are not limited to : change in sleep patterns ex. staying in and passing out by 10 on a friday night, decreased attention on ones personal fitness level (often referred to as comfort weight), the inability to sleep comfortably alone, the necessity to be in constant contact and in severe cases they even multiply.

These people often socialize with their own type. It is very uncommon to find only a couple people with SODS at a party. They used to go through a ritual so we could identify these people easily by a quick glance at their left hand but now many have abandoned this ritual which leaves them unnoticed.
"Did you go to that house party last night?"
"Yea, it was terrible! Everyone there had Significant Other Dependency Syndrome (SODS)"
