To say you are going to do something / go somewhere and eventually never show off. Lame excuses are used when "pulling a Dickie" such as checking the email, having to meet the wife or being a total douche.
A couple of friends are walking to see a third one when suddenly one of them starts walking the wrong way.
-"Hey, what are you doing! Weren't you supposed to come with me?"
-"Mhhh...sorry but my wife hits me if I don't get home before 7PM."
-"What a douche! Don't try to pull a Dickie on me."
-"Hey, what are you doing! Weren't you supposed to come with me?"
-"Mhhh...sorry but my wife hits me if I don't get home before 7PM."
-"What a douche! Don't try to pull a Dickie on me."

When you royally screw up by trying to advocate something unpopular and at the same time use unpopular objects in your argument. In the end, you just make a fool of yourself and what your trying to advocate.
Pepsi really outdid themselves by pulling a pepsi when they aired an ad about the black-lives matter movement and also included Kendall Jenner. This all ended in a fail, resulting in backlash.

Pulling a skelly is quite a complex occurence. Using words that no one could possibly understand, speaking in Old English, Latin, or another foreign language for no better reason than to show off, writing obscene amounts of poetry, and having a music library as old as the dinosaurs are all potential candidates for pulling a skelly.
You've probably heard many people pulling a skelly. It takes a combination of ego, intelligence, and pretentiousness to correctly execute. Has anyone ever said something and it either made you:
A) become confused as to what was said because you couldn't understand any of the terms
B) become enraged due to the amount of "I'm-better-than-you" sentiment in the statement
or
C) wish you could jump in front of the nearest moving vehicle to escape the annoying, droning voice?
Well, then you've heard someone pull a skelly. Anyone is capable of pulling a skelly at some point; though the most likely people to pull a skelly on a regular basis are your really academic friends, who live in their own little world and don't pay attention to anyone else on a regular basis.
