pulling a drysdale

When a person, male or female, intends to come an event, and in doing so builds the anticipation of the other people attending the event (i.e. a date or dinner with certain suave people), only to crush everyone’s spirits and withdraw their attendance based on a very poor, unimaginative excuse. See also the pineapple pull out.
Thomas was going to go on a date with Lucy. He was very excited as this was to be the night of all nights, and he had romantically prepared the venue with rose petals and some expensive Moet, along with the smooth tones of a young Barry White in order to set the mood. All of a sudden Thomas received a 'Coward's Telegraph' SMS and to his utter disappointment he was heartbroken to realise that Lucy would be 'pulling a drysdale' and had forgotten that she was sick and couldn't make it..... For the 2nd or 3rd week in a row! Thomas was heartbroken and is still searching for his Lucy...pineapple pullout

Pulling a Bing

noun

Whenever some stupid mistake is made or some undue effort has been expended - because of the inefficiencies of any involved parties. This is often used in the past tense - pulled a bing. SUNY Binghamton is the origin of this phrase because the university is completely inefficient.

ie - charging a student too much because the financial aid office messed up, or charging a student a certain amount and then, after they've paid, awarding them a financial aid grant of the same amount that was paid, indicating that the student hadn't needed to pay anything in the first place.
Example 1:
Student: "I had to wait in the Student Account line for half an hour because the financial aid dept pulled a bing."

Example 2:
Person 1: "Dude, the boss is pretty pissed - why'd you come in so late?"
Person 2: "My wife totally ended up pulling a bing this morning. She sends me to the store to get bacon only to call me to say 'Never mind' as I'm paying the cashier."
