pulling a tommy c

When one or more bros continuously decides to ditch/ exclude/ not hang out with his fellow bros because he rather hang out with his girlfriend or when a bro makes plans with his girlfriend all the time and leaves no time for his fellow bros or when a bro decides not to hang out with his bros because he made plans with his girlfriend that conflict with a brocasion. This is especially bad when the bro pulling a tommy c does not make up for missed time with his bros. This can also be mistaken for the bro code rule "~bros before hoes~" but it may not be the case if the bro's girlfriend is not a hoe.

Resulting in the bro rarely ever hanging out with his fellow bros.

Example1
Bro1: hey bro wanna go hang out with other bros today?
Bro2(the bro pulling a tommy c): nah man I'd rather go hangout with my girlfriend.
Bro1: tomorrow then?
Bro2: nope, busy with her then too

Example 2
Bro1: hey bro wanna go hang out with other bros today?
Bro2(the bro pulling a tommy c):sorry can't man already made plans with my girlfriend

a tommy [gun]

Famous 30's machine gun, originally designed for use in WWI but never saw active service. Instead it became a favourite of gangsters from NY to Chicago. Most movies of the time feature its distinctive round under-barrel magazine.

My tommy's gonna make their heaters look like slingshots.

a "tommy"

"tommy" or pulling a "tommy" not having a job Someone who speaks of having a job and you have no idea what type of job they have or if they even have one. It's to be assumed that they do not have any type of employment but want to come off as if they do.For example, the popular 90's sitcom "Martin" based on the comedy of Martin Lawrence. His best buddy Thomas "tommy" Strong was always told :"what job, now you know you ain't got no job man!"

Don't try to pull a "tommy" on us, you know you ain't got no job.
