An incredibly poor excuse that even the perpetrator knows is so horrendously appalling it's an insult to the intelligence of the listener.
Cheesman (Of Jamie And The Cheesmans): I'm very tired.
Innocent Bystander: It's 1 o' clock in the afternoon.
Cheesman (Of Jamie And The Cheesmans): I have to revise.
Innocent Bystander: You don't go to school. Wait a minute! That wasn't an excuse at all! It was a mere Cheesman Excuse, designed to put me off while you make your escape! Little do you know your days playing the bass are over, for you have been usurped by a superior artist!
Frankie: (Of Frankie and the fat kids) I'm taking this.
Cheesman (Of Jamie And The Cheesmans): Er, okay.

Operator 2: The sun is in my eyes, and its so cold I can't complete simple tasks, but mostly I'm hungry and when that happens I get dizzy. Any other time non of this would not be an issue.

The Virus as avoidance mechanism.
โI hated all those bleeping webinars,โ snaps Micro, โand the boss would always check the Zoom chat to see who actively attended. Now I beg off with The Big Excuse, saying itโs long-haul and Iโm too foggy to grok whatโs going on. She was sensitive about it. Ha!โ
โSwim meets always drove me bonkers,โ says Bailey. โBut Cypress cried if I didnโt go โ until I duped her with The Big Excuse, saying that mommies whoโd had Delta had to stay home and rest, and nanny Martha could support a little princessโs backstroke just fine.โ

An overused excuse that hides a person's true intentions.
(Coined from Pokemon, where Misty always followed Ash until he "paid her back for wrecking her bike". She would use this "Bike Excuse" whenever confronted about why she still followed Ash, when in reality it was because she loved him.)
Person A: For the hundredth time, I'm sorry for barging in on you, I was looking for the bathroom.
Person B: Oh, don't give me that Bike Excuse, we all know it was because you wanted to see me change.
