pulling a john bates

When you look someone straight in the eye and ask the dumbest question possible as if you are sincere with your question knowing damn well the answer.
Going to the loan officer at the bank and telling them you have a 400 credit score with multiple chargeoffs, no job or income and you live on your friends couch and absolutely no way of making the loan payments and then asking if you could qualify for a $400,000 unsecured credit line with the lowest interest rate. The loan officer looks you straight in the eye and asks you if you are "pulling a John Bates" on me?

Batey

A rather posh, old-fashioned way of expressing someone's unhappiness. The closest equivalents would be CROSS or MAD.
From the Derek & Clive album "Ad Nauseam" (1978) :

CLIVE:
Oh, gosh! 'Oh! I'm done for!' I thought: 'Crumbs! If I go to Sir's study he'll get jolly BATEY and probably do all sorts of things'. And when we got in there he said, "I'm jolly cross with you .....for looking at, at Wiggins playing with his willy!"

I am the bone of my sword
Steel is my body, Fire is my blood
I have created over a thousand blades
Unknown to life, nor known to death
Have withstood pain to create many weapons
Yet those hands will never hold anything
So as I pray, Unlimited Blade Works!
