I've heard some pretty dang funny excuses by people as to why they didn't onsight or send a route. What are some of the best ones you've heard?

Not too funny but I hear this from everyone all the time:

"My foot slipped! I sooo had that but my foot slipped!"

Well, you didn't really "had" that, did you?

Climber gets lowered from a #2 cam in the middle of a trad route, turns to me and says:

"That #2 cam up there is BOMBER. If I was your weight, I would have finished that, no problem."

What?! I'm supposed to have a better lead head since I weigh less?!?
