2. Bob: But you don't understand, Jesse. You don't actually dislike Frank Zappa, you just don't understand his hidden depths. *insert ontological treatise here*
Jesse: Bob! Don't pull a Warhol on me. You think Zappa's great; I don't. Let's leave it at that.

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.
