Blamed the dog, got caught.
If you are male, alone, and near a toy lightsaber, it will played with. No matter how old you are. This is 100% Fact.

So there was young Roddimus, bored and looking for something to do, when I spyed my rather nifty looking lightsaber at the back of the cupboard. 'Awesome!' methinks, 'No one in the house, lets dust off the saber and do some serious 'whom whomming!'

After some seriously mind melting saber skills, young Roddimus goes for the final deadly killer blow, sweeping the saber through the air.... straight into the light fitting.
Shit!
Glass everywhere, mum will be pissed.

The lightsaber is quickly hidden, glass cleared and the cover up formed.
"The dog was playing with her ball, and managed to ping it in the air and smash the light!"
Mother Prime, although upset at the loss of her lovely light fitting, can see it was an accident caused by the stupid dog, and nothing more can be done. Dog gets told off, I'm scott free! Huzzzah! My cunning plan had worked!

Several hours later, I get summoned over to the computer by my mum, where I had foolishly left MSN running for all to see. She did not say a single word. She just pointed at the screen and gave me a look, 10 times more soul destroying than any telling off had ever achieved in my life;

RPrime: "Dude, can't believe what just happened!"
Matt: "What is it me old mucker"
RPrime:"I was playing with the old lightsaber earlier in the lounge, and smashed a light! I blamed it on the dog playing ball, and Mum fell for it. Can't believe I got away with it! lol"


Where was the most shame? In blaming the dog for something she didn't do? Or was it the fact I was 17 at the time?!

Ouch...
Was she more disappointed than angry?
