the usual process i get is as follows : 1. the flake - me :"yo, are we taking your car, or mine?" flake-artist :"was that was today? oh ok."
2. the detour - flake-artist : "i just gotta pick X up from Y,but i'll meet you there"
3. the fade-away - me txting = "yo, where abouts are you" flake-artist txting = "just held up at X's, be there soon."
20mins later flake-artist txting = "on my way, is Y with you? my battery going flat"
4. the take-down - no ringing. "hi, this is flake-artist, leave a message".
i catch up with my "friend" later in the week and the story behind why he didn't show is HUGE!! of hollywood proportions. a tsunami, total city blackout and godzilla were involved, all while he was saving a baby from a burning building during a gang shootout, wearing a blue shirt and red bandana. pffft.
i once asked a friend to go eat sushi over the phone. i get, 'can i call you back?' as the response. I already knew the answer.
5 min later the call is received. "I dont think im gonna go." I am ready to say bye and hang up.
Before hanging up - I get the barrage of excuses... a) I had sushi the other day b) person im with doesnt eat sushi c) we ate like 2 hrs ago d) I have to study for this test e) Have to pick up something for sibling f) Theres always traffic enroute to restaurant
Do you ever get multiple-excuse person? Might be related to the flaker...

I've heard the same story. Except he was also running from Tubgirl while wearing a GREEN bandana.
Crazy.
