Play hooky, 'be absent from school without an excuse', is an Americanism first recorded around 1848. Bartlett's Dictionary of Americanisms gives this slightly later example: "He moped to school gloomy and sad, and took his flogging, along with Joe Harper, for playing hookey the day before." (Mark Twain, Tom Sawyer) And here's another example showing the extended use of the term: "I played hookey from the Appropriations Committee this morning." (Harry Truman, Dear Bess)
Play hooky is probably derived from the Dutch term hoekje (spelen) 'hide-and-seek'. The Dutch word hoek means 'corner'-- the boys in 17th-century New Amsterdam played this game around the corners of the street. Hide-and-seek was a different game back then--the players had to search for a hidden object. Although play hooky originally referred to the game of hide-and-seek, it also had other meanings in the 17th and 18th centuries. It wasn't until the 19th century that schoolchildren began using play hooky to mean 'skip school.'
It's also been suggested that play hooky comes from the verb hook, euphemistically meaning 'to steal', or from the phrase hook it, meaning 'to escape, run away, make off'. These derivations are unlikely-- the Random House Dictionary of American Slang points out that the term hook it was not used in the United States until after 1848.
Play hooky was originally slang, but now, of course, it's standard English. But you're right in noting that the term isn't used very much anymore.

Get the blade hoots mug.It is the position that the driver of said automobile assumes because of the adjustment of the seat. In attempt to be cool or hip, the seat back is cranked back to the point where the driver feels he/she has attained cool status. The "hunch" aspect of the description becomes apparent when the vehicle starts to move, because the driver, who can't actually see out at this point has to "hunch" forward to see who might be looking at him/her, or maybe even to drive. This is often compounded by the fact that the driver is, for whatever reason, wearing his/her hood up (inside the car!), and can barely operate the vehicle. Should we call it the moron hunch?
The seventeen year old suburban male is often afflicted with hoopty hunch. If the windows are not tinted, he can be spotted with earrings, and wearing his hat backwards, driving his grandmother's 1991 Coupe De Ville. He longs for the day this baby becomes his and he can put 20" wheels on it. But, for now, the seat adjustment is the only grandmother approved modification.
