Getting on with your life...not letting things get in your way...being positive and optimistic...not looking for a reason to avoid something...not wasting an opportunity...

Derived from the word "Excuse".It is tendency/Disease/Regular behaviour of making excuse for every poor performance.In simpler words,giving excuses for everything and trying to back their faults

An attempt to create a justification for something that you knowingly decided to flake out on. Lack of balls to take responsibility for your own actions or wrong doing. A pussy attempt to make someone feel better about their disappointment by disguising a lie as an excuse.

A perfectly valid reason, but one which your boss, teacher, or other superior simply doesn't like.

An alternative word for the phrase "I didn't ask to be excused." (I didn't ask for excusion.)"

Like assholes, we all have one, and they all stink.

A lame reason for getting out of something. For example, "I didn't have anything to eat for breakfast so I ate my essay". Or "excuse" in the word "excuse me". For example, "excuse me for sneezing on your dress."
