Plans are made but only exist as mere ideas. These plans never take place. This does not mean that anyone disapproved of the plans; in fact, those involved usually have fun working through the planning process. However, usually, it is silently mutually understood that the plans are significantly more likely NOT to take place than to follow through.
Individuals that were involved in the initial planning usually stop committing after the excitement surrounding it has died down & reality has set in.
This is a tale-old occurrence that many of us will experience in our lives: the process of pretend-planning
Ex: The type of plans that you & your out-of-state boo make every other weekend, except they never follow through. The reality of the long distance between you 2 makes it difficult to commit.

While on their weekend hiking trip, their pretend-planning lead them to opt for brunch and bottomless mimosas instead of hitting the trails.

Emory - ***inside thought - PLAN PARALYSIS***
Hannah - “Are you alright?”
Emily - “I’ve got plan paralysis.”
Hannah - “What’s that?”
Rory - “Plan Freeze means she can’t make a decision.”

Get the Game Planmug. proper noun: a decent podcast made by 3 mildly funny, tired and relatable middle aged nerds who struggle with recording equipment, but still make it work.

me: Plans Are Optional.
them: Why don't you just say no, instead of trying to sound mysterious?
me, sighing: -_- no, thats the name of a podcast, Plans Are Optional.

Get the The plan for Tuesdaymug. A phrase, like "to through a spanner in the works", it means to mess stuff up. It is a common phrase on the west coast of the U.S., it is more commonly used with the younger generations, yet, it can also be used by older folk.

Get the A knife in our plansmug. Started during the Obama campaign, which was especially focused on healthcare.
It’s jokingly used to indicate racism. A racist voter who didn’t like Obama could very plausibility say the reason for their dislike was based on disagreements with Obama’s healthcare plan.
