Pulling a "Lassie" is as the definition says - It is when your friend is in a situation that they need to get out of and making up a crazy story to tell them to get out of said situation.
Original example "What's that Lassie? Timmy is stuck down the well?..." The Pulling a Lassie : "Come home quickly! There is an alligator burning down the house and all I have is a breadstick and a water spritzer and I don't know how long I can hold it off!"
Response: "what's that?! I will get home right now!!"
Response: "what's that?! I will get home right now!!"

When someone complains about life in a sarcastic way as a cry for attention, even when their life is good
He's complaining how he can't afford a PS4 and a Macbook in the same month. Talk about pulling a jones, am I right!
