Poll: What does it take for you to skip a class?

[Sassafrass]

Not much really. Oversleeping by 5 minutes and while at school, taking a walk around the school grounds while waiting to go into class.

 

[Proteus214]

Depends on the class. If I feel that I can get more out of the class by spending 15 minutes reading my textbook, then it's not worth going to me.

 

[Verbose]

All it takes is something better to do. If I got nothing, class it is. Anything comes up, I'm out.

 

[Lunar Shadow]

Late night fun and my car being towed.

 

[PureChaos]

nit being interested in the class

 

[Woodsey]

Where's the "Sexy blondes" option?

 

[Skeleon]

Well, I might contribute to skewing the poll here, but since I'm a university student I can leave whenever I want to. So: Boredom, I guess.
Back in highschool I barely missed any classes, though. Attendance was mandatory.

 

[silasbufu]

Schedule conflict with work mostly...i dont really like to skip class now that im in university. Now my highschool days...haha thats another story, 85+ absent days in the school year 9th grade, beat that.

Oh god , highschool was awesome..we didn't even need an excuse to skip the classes.

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

Eh, usually sickness, but other times I just have one of those days where I wake up like "I do not want to fucking deal with life right now"

 

[KaiRai]

something more interesting than the class. As a result, I missed practically a whole year of college 2 years back

 

[George Palmer]

All it ever took me was a desire to not attend that class for any number of various reasons.

 

[JanatUrlich]

I skip class a lot. Mainly just because I can't be bothered that day or I haven't done my homework or whatever

 

[Go Fighting In The War Room]

If I don't miss anything serious like a test or an exam, I'll find ways to skip and be excused from work too. I once said the reason I skipped a french class was because it was my Grandma's 90th birthday, yet she lives in North Carolina. And they believed me.

 

[bodyklok]

I think I've only ever missed school because of a) Sleeping in by accident; b) being very ill; c) my Grand Mothers funeral; d) Not wanting to go.

 

[ParkourMcGhee]

Generally not unless I'm really sick (physically or mentally) that day.

You might thing that's an excuse, but I can get pretty moody at times... and it's a better idea to punch a hole clean through the ceiling (a paint-made-it-spikey piece of plasterboard with iron wool on top) rather than through somebody's scull. Or so I am told.

The other time I can notably remember, I was pissing blood. That was interesting >.>

Besides our school didn't like us so less than 90% attendance (approved/unapproved) and you were gonna get kicked out V_V. I'm happy I'm not in that hell hole anymore.

 

[Spore]

depends really, just what I feel like that particular day...
for instance today, I hit the pub last night with a couple of mates till bout 5, but I was back in the classroom at 9 sharp...

on the other hand, monday I had a good night's sleep and just couldn't be bothered so went back to sleep and woke up when everybody was going home again...

 

[Starke]

Where's the "Sexy blondes" option?

They made off with your car keys, you didn't notice?

 

[similar.squirrel]

A feeling between disinclination and mortal dread.
