when somebody is awaiting you in your home or hotel and when you arrive he isn't responding when ringing the bell or by phone for hours. Sometimes a Harry deluxe can occur which implicits that you are stucked and cannot go to another place so you have to wait outside and gonna have a rest by covering yourself with old newspapers.
Person 1: Dude, we arrived at 8pm but you werent there - that was a typical harry!
Person 2: Yes guys, I was performing a Harry I am very sorry about that!

Get the performing a Harry mug.A marketing tactic where media actively looks for unintentional, out of context, or irrelevant things to be outraged over, usually through identity politics, to create a manufactured feeling of us vs them to keep the working class divided. Instead of fixing bigotry it exacerbates it. This tactic works on people who are bored, lack nuanced thinking, and are easily manipulated into tribalism.
"I'm sick of performative outrage. We all have more in common than we think! Now is the time for empathy and understanding, not division!"

Get the Poor Performance mug.A hellhole highschool that prides itself on being "the top performing arts high school" in the Illawarra, but is a communal area for fuckboys and cunts to hangout and smoke weed.
The school's principal is a person that most people in the school think is a homosexual, who enforces the school uniform rule way too harshly, and will literally yell at you if your socks are slightly discoloured.
Full of suicidal teenagers who think they're the shit because they do drugs and get smashed, and have sex.
The ever so famous boys bathrooms constantly smell like piss, with urine constantly on the toilet seats, and toilet paper all over the floor. Also, there is targets in the urinal for you to aim your pee onto!
And in the girls bathroom, you can find period blood and tampons all over the floor and toilet seats! Yay! Love the feminist and free the nipple graffiti all over the stalls!
Also, this school spends more money on its yearly productions than it does on education.
