What are some of the lame excuses chicks used to flake on you

Most excuses I used to get ranged from things like "my grandma is in the hospital and I have to visit her" to things like "I think I have to babysit my little cousin, I'll let you know"
Nowadays, I just get pure radio silence. The effort to come up with a lame excuse seems to be just too much.
Grant me serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference

"My stomach hurts."
"It's that time of the month."
"It's my friends birthday." (said to me by the same girl twice in 2 weeks)

I heard this one recently "I can't meet tonight. I'm tired and have plans to get under the covers, cuddle with my cat and watch Netflix"

It's usually something about school, which is odd because they usually aren't studying shit.
Maine and Canadian lobsters are the same animal. Prove me wrong.

Reading these makes me feel a lot better about flakes.
A few I received:
"Hey my brother came over so I can't come to town" was suppose to be in town 9 hours ago.
"My dad just came over and doesn't like me leaving late" She's 26 and told me just as I was walking up to her place
My favorite:
"Can't meet today, I ate too much food" This one really made me fucking laugh.

One flake I had recently told me she was staying late at work on Friday night, even though I said, come over later etc, she flaked. And hell, feeling like the chick would rather stay at work on a friday night and then see me, was gutting man.
At the time, I didn't really feel how pissed I was, how disappointed I was. Then the next day, after we had agreed to meet that night, she then says 'are we meeting tonight?' and after that, I just thought fuck this girl. Its just so blatently obvious that she isn't interested it was painful. I stopped it right there in the tracks. Maybe she was waiting for me to stop chasing her, but I'm not sure how advanced it was. It just seemed like she was being really dishonest which she was.

Got flaked on earlier this evening, an hour before meeting up. Her:
"Hate to do this but I just got home after a shitty day, in the middle of a shitty month and even if james bond appeared at my door I wouldn't want to go out. I'm sorry."
See's like she's a real charmer! [number-closed her a week ago late-night at a bar.]

I've heard the mother of all excuses: "My cousin died....". On the same day she sent me pussy pics and wanted to meet up.
Just out of morbid curiosity, since Facebook likes to suggest to you people who you have the number of, I found her FB profile and she posted a pic of her at some party. I hit her up again with "so you seem to have quickly gotten over that dead relative of yourself". Long story short, she was married, probably got into a fight with her man, wanted to cheat, then got second thoughts and wanted to "let me down gently" with her excuse. The sheer gall of some women for lieing is incredible
Another one I heard: "It's windy and rainy outside, don't wanna get blown away lol"
Also it seems that with Western girls, you have to set up dates by using business language you'd use to set up contracts. Like it's not enough to talk about grabbing drinks and having a place, date and time figured out. You actually have to say "Hereby we have discussed all terms of our meeting. So, do we meet at place X on day Y at time Z?" and need to get a "yes" in return from them. Always push for that yes from their side or they'll give you some bullshit reason like "Oh I thought we TALKED about it but didn't agree to actually meet..." or the even more infuriating "well yes we agreed on everything but that was days ago and you didn't message me afterwards so I thought it was called off...."

Another tactic that seems to be becoming more and more common, particularly on online dating sites, is women who say they suffer from chronic headaches or fibromyalgia or some other mysterious physical issue which prevents them from ever making firm plans or knowing what they're doing more than five minutes in advance. I actually get this sort of pre-flake fairly often. "Yeah, because of my chronic big toe pain I'm just warning you it's hard for me to make plans..."
Unfortunately there are probably some women who have legit medical problems who are cool and would like to meet people, but I'm betting there are a lot who don't really have particularly serious problems who just use this as an easy out to be a total flake, as it's a pretty much airtight setup. You can't really say anything if she says she's bailing on you because whatever chronic issue she mentions in her profile flared up because then you're insensitive etc.

What's the best way of dealing with these lame excuses?
I think I would send a text back just saying 'LOL' and then just leave it at that, it might make them curious as to why you just laughed at them and stopped talking. Or it might not, oh well.

About an hour before the date... "I'm really sorry but I feel really sick and have to go home." I can't accuse her of not feeling sick so I say something along the lines of "I can't say I'm not disappointed, but feel better." She never responds. About a week later, I engage again and I get "I'm sorry but I have a chronic illness that I have to focus on and I won't be able to date you anymore." I met her on OkC and she logged back in the next day.
