Pragnaing

Responding to a direct inquiry with nonsensical or irrelevant information to intentionally evade providing a meaningful answer.
"Gowtham! You've missed two meetings and have not notified us in advance, what's the reason for this?"

"My mic had issues that I was trying to resolve, I understand text messages may not be the best way to communicate this and verbal communication may be more effective. Also I've been travelling a lot recently and haven't intentionally avoided any meetings."

"Sure, but can you tell me why you didn't notify me in advance?"

"It was a challenging time for me, a lot was happening simultaneously. I've had some personal errands I had to attend to."

"Okay... can I take it that you'll notify me in advance the next time this happens?"

"Thanks for your understanding, and I look forward to working together to resolve these concerns."

"You really need to quit pragnaing"

Abhilashing

To abandon one's duties without a care in the world
"Hey, did anyone try and contact Gowtham? He hasn't join the meeting yet."

"I tried calling him and he's not picking up; he might be abhilashing."

"Wow, disappointing, but to be fair, that is gowth-like behavior"

"Indeed, classic gowth!"

gowth

The man himself, gowth.

Some call him gowth-senpai, others just call him gowth. Very few have dared to call him by his full name: Gowtham.
Hey you there, stop with the bad driving, that some real gowth-like behavior.
