I've used 79 on the phone before. It works if they are in a hurry (they don't have time to think about what you just said).
 
I'd love to, but just no. lol

Great excuses, but if I do not want to do something, I usually do not make up an excuse, I'll simply say no.

92 I'm going to the Missing Persons Bureau to see if anyone is looking for me.

That's actually a valid concern. I never check my phone, so I'll just call the police to see if anyone's reported me missing...



I usually just say 'no.'

Or 'I have to listen to every Pink Floyd release in chronological order.'



They usually either back away quickly, or run away quickly. Or hang up and call the psych ward instead.
 
I usually just say no. But if you want to be mean, you could say I just don't like you, stop inviting me places.
