A range of tactics for dodging your responsibilities, including (but not limited to): going missing when the going gets tough; passing the buck; and talking your way out of a tight spot with an empty promise.
Australian slang. Inspired by Australia’s 30th Prime Minister Scott Morrison.
(NOTE: ‘Doing a Morrison’ is not to be confused with ‘Getting Morrisoned’, which usually involves you losing either your pre-selection (see Michael Towke), your job (see Christine Holgate), or your credit for a job well done (see nearly everyone else).)

Get the matthew morrison mug.A trademark of Jim Morrison. Heard in songs such as "Light My Fire" it is an absolute embodiment and representation of the legend. When performed correctly, the performer will take a deep breath, and then let out a very low, raspy, almost gasp-like shout that will sound like they've been a lifetime smoker. Popular among annoyances and pranksters, letting out a Jim Morrison scream during a family prayer without warning will guarentee a laugh 100% of the time.
My family and I were sitting down to eat our Thanksgiving turkey, and while we were praying, I just randomly let out a Jim Morrison scream, FUNNIEST SHIT EVER

Get the Jim Morrison Scream mug.Originating from Hyderabad where they make good biryani. A young moit who looked like Shahrukh Khan used to nut on the biryani before it was served as his father could not afford salad cream. He would then tell the customers that it was the best salad cream in the world and could be used as steroids. People would not believe his outrageous and fabricated lies
