v. Pretending to play a stringed instrument with a tune in the background; the obvious result being it will look as if the music were coming forth from the instrument itself.
Etymology
Pickync is short for pick synchronisation which is inspired by the more popular portmanteau lip synchronisation (more commonly referred as lipsync.) Here, pick is taken to mean the little plastic/bone/ivory/metal whatchamacallit hoojamaflip that certain guitar players (among several other stringed instrumentalists) use to strum their stringed instrument.
Miscellaneous
Depending on the degree of the observer's intelligence, thier attention to detail and their understanding of the concepts of vibrating length and thickness of the string, and the timbre of the instrument and its implications on the intonation and tone of the instrument, picksyncers may or may not pull off being real.
In all likeliness, picksyncers (good ones atleast) can only be made out as fakers by seasoned fellow operators of stringed instruments.

People always diss Lemolok on Youtube for picksyncing to a MIDI version of Necrophagist's Seven on a ukulele, but I think he did a fairly good job of making it look and sound real.

I pretended to not remember it was her birthday. I even ignored her. I thought I'd surprise her at the end of the day with a present and maybe take her out. But the end of that day never came...
She took it on herself — she thought she had hurt me because I ignored her. She didn't do anything wrong but she took in on herself! And so I took things too far and I knew I had to tell her I wasn't mad at her. I apologized to her but those never save your conscience. She forgave me despite it all. She forgave me because she believed in us through it all.
There isn't a day when I wish she would come storming into my house yelling, "I'm going to give you a piece of my heart for hurting me!". But that day never comes.
She's forgotten about it. I think. But I haven't and it makes me feel so guilty every time I think about it.
