Pulling a Rife

When someone arrogantly sabotages their own business or project through overconfident blunders, like picking unnecessary fights, making baseless claims, or alienating partners, only to watch it all backfire spectacularly. Often involves hiding behind excuses while the competition thrives.

“Dude, starting that petty lawsuit against your rivals just because your ego got bruised? You’re totally pulling a Rife—now your company’s reputation is in the trash.”

Pulling a Pylant

a term used to describe somebody engaging in really edgy behavior, typically in relation to bomb threats or arson jokes. This term should be used to discourage edgy jokes or actions, as Pylant was not a very good man. Bonus points if the recipient is gay or Canadian.

if they continue, or actually go through with one of their jokes, then you should probably find a new friend.

P1: Heh, I'm gonna call in a bomb threat to the school.
P2: Come on, dude, you're pulling a Pylant. You're above edgy jokes.
