School

Skipping school is never recommended, especially the first day. If you do end up having to miss that first day, you better have a good excuse. I've come up with the top ten excuses you should use in case this very situation happens to you.

10. Got hired as economic aide for President Obama

9. The dog ate my homework, so I had to go to the vet

8. The computer ate my homework, so I had to go to an electronics store

7. Oprah gave me a free day off

6. Spent the entire month reminding Obama that he's now hit the big 5-0

5. Got fired by President Obama

4. The DeLorean overshot

3. Was part of the Libyan revolution

2. Got washed out to see by Hurricane Irene

And the number one excuse for missing the first day of school:

1. Was afraid Rebecca Black would release a new single about it
