Today, my roommate's pets conspired against me. "The dog ate my homework" has apparently become too clichéd for them. The new excuses are, "My cat chewed through my laptop power cable" and "the gecko ate my pen drive." FML

Today, I found out my roommate had mistaken my toothbrush for his dog's. So for the last month he's been using my toothbrush on his dog. The dog's favorite meal? Fresh cat poop. FML

Today, while I have never been able to say my dog ate my homework, I do get to call several people and tell them my dog ate my wallet. He even chewed up my driver's license. FML

Today, I woke up to find out that my practically feral cat had chewed through my laptop charger cable. I guess I won't be getting much work done today. FML

Today, I woke up to find that my cat had barfed all over my laptop's keyboard and screen, filling each nook and cranny of the stuff. As if that wasn't bad enough, when I went to make coffee to deal with the stress, I found that I was out of coffee. FML

Today, our cat wrote me a story: "This is where I caught a mouse. This is where I ate the mouse. This is where I puked the mouse." Unfortunately, she wrote it as a graphic novel on the carpet. FML

Today, my boss brought his cat to the office. Despite our no pet policy, I still managed to get the blame when the crazy animal scratched 3 colleagues and peed on the floor after my boss left for bathroom. Apparently I was supposed to be "looking after it". FML

Today, I found one of my roommate's giant yellow toenail clippings on the counter next to the kitchen sink. When I confronted him about it, he told me the cat must have carried it out of his bedroom and put it there. FML

Today, my roomate took the toilet paper out of my bathroom. I went into his room to look for it, only to find a large wad of it balled up near his laptop and mouse. FML

Today, my landlord came to my apartment because of complaints from my neighbors, saying that animals are not allowed inside. Turns out my roommate makes cat-noises when she's bored. My landlord still doesn't believe me. FML

Can't help you with the gecko, but I'd suggest putting some kind of citrus on things you don't want the cat to chew up. FYL for sure though, laptop plugs are EXPENSIVE!

as long as they don't believe "dog ate the homework"... " gecko ate the pendrive" will be just too weird.

Maybe OP's teacher will think the excuses are so weird they must be true? Hopefully, but not likely.

The parrot tore up my textbook, the lion ate all the pencils and the elephant sat on my car. . .Whoops

The gecko is fine. It's good that he had... insurance.. Get it? Cuz the gecko is the mascot for Geico so he had... No, you're right... I'm sorry... I'll go think about what I've done in time out.

That was actually a pretty good pun. I'm just glad OP's roommate doesn't own any camels. "Joe." "Joe." "Joe." "Guess what day it is?"

One time I told my teacher that my lizard pooped on my homework, he believed it in a heartbeat. I actually had a lizard, so it was completely unbelievable.
