That’s what you call “pulling a (fill in the name)”

I felt the need to compile a list of phrases that have been inspired by/coined by some of my friends. So, if you hear someone say one of these, you’ll know what they mean.

Pulling a (fill in the name):
Mario – Pretending you hurt your ankle so bad the day before that you have to stay in your hotel room all day instead of going downstairs to that conference/business meeting.
Earnest – Chillin’ & dancing in the street because you don’t want to pay the hella expensive cover to get in the club
Maya – Having the cops show up at your crib b/c of noise complaints or looking drunk in every picture you take because you always blink
Kristle – Falling and hurting your knees or having knee pain all of the time except when you’re at the club getting your mack on
Joy – Even though the person that you're meeting at the gas station said they'd be there in 2 minutes, you decide to enter the car wash the moment they pull up
Ifeoma – Kicking someone in the stomach when they try to steal your purse

And just in case you don’t get it, here’s a true life example of how to use one of these phrases: “Man, my knees are all scraped up ‘cause I pulled a Kristle last week!”
