To pull a Soares

'To pull a Soares' on someone is to arrive significantly late or not show up at all for a casual or recreational engagement, often without prior notice.

"Want to catch a movie tonight?"
"Sure, let's meet at 7 pm."
Later that evening
"Hey, where are you?"
"Sorry, something came up, and I can't make it."
"Are you trying to pull a Soares on me?"

"Let's play together today around 8 pm?"
"Sure, see you there!"
(Later that evening, an hour past 8 pm with no response)
"Damn, you really pulled a Soares on me!"
