I would have thought that the above provided explicit instructions on how to accomplish

1) absorb life lessons from 'Ferris Bueller'
2) Take mental health day
3) Stay in bed, eat chocolate and watch movies.

For extra credit, do this on a day when the weather is attempting to drown the Cape Flats by throwing buckets of water at a time at the earth.

On the other hand, LJ does count as skiving off.

I think it's not so much genetic by the way, except in as much as the gene resides on the Y chromosome. Having studied K's guilt towards WAB'ing over the years, I suspect it may also have something to do with boarding school.
When I wanted to stay home from school, all I had to do was lie to my mother, who let's face it, has too much at stake to call your blatant attempts at having a bit of a lie in.
Apparently, at boarding school you would end up spending the time, not in your comfy bed but in the infirmary under the watchful eye of the school nurse, assuming you've managed to con a much harder mark than your mum.
