Hopefully this hasn't been done yet...

The aim of the game is to answer the question with the best excuse possible.
Here's an example of how you play:

Person A: (Their excuse)
Why is your hair green?!

Person B: I fell into a green swamp while fishing for the Loch Ness Monster.
Why did you get to work late?

Person C: (Their excuse)
(Their question)

I'll start...
Why did you leave the garbage on the doorstep?
I bought a cactus. A week later it died. I got depressed because I thought Damn, I am less nurturing than a desert.

I cried so much when [insert tv series here] ended that I flooded the house.

Why is there an inflatable frog on your roof?

Because you had a cocktail party and invited Kanye West, unfortunately (I don't know why you'd do that), and he tried singing Pink Floyd, but completely butchered the song by saying he wrote it, and Roger Waters came and beat him to death and it turns out Kanye's blood is Orange Soda.

Roger Waters is now hailed as a hero.


Why did Obi Wan not tell Luke that Vader was his father?

Because Luke pranked Obi Wan by making his lightsaber rainbow coloured so decided that it was payback time. Yoda agreed, saying that Luke "gotten too big for boots, he has".

Why is that sandwich in the fire?
Dreams sprout tall so beautiful
to wither and fall off
Old and dusty, creaky and rough
This clockwork will not rest

It's because a yob from the local area released a cacophony of tropical birds from the sanctuary, while at the same time, the light was flicking so sporadically that it fooled the toucan (which evidently had a lower intellect than usual) into thinking there was actually a female toucan trapped inside the glass orb. If you wait a minute or sixty, you'll find the toucan will attempt to break the glass.

Why did the mandible wedge vex the frigid Toblerone?
