A random set of keys to leave on your desk that will give your boss and colleagues the impression that you are in the office, just not at your desk. Helpful when taking a long lunch or cutting out of the oFfice early. Certain military members (with desk jobs) can enhance the effect by leaving the prop keys on top of an extra piece of uniform headgear (beret or other hat)
Boss: Where's Bill? Coworker: I'm not sure, but he could not have gone far since his keys are on his desk. Boss: Okay, I'll catch him later. Coworker thinks "maybe not, if those are his prop keys."

someone who is just a prop in someone else’s life for the time being.
a friend who is thrown away when that person no longer needs them.
most of the time these friends have the biggest hearts and souls and would do anything for their friends but are always left with the short end of the stick.

Plop Props are generally things like feces, slimy trash, or wadded up used toilet paper gathered for the purpose of throwing at someone you don't like. Anything that makes the sound Plop when it hits it's target is a plop prop.
I have plenty of plop props for my high school principal's house and car! He won't know what hit him, but he won't want to go home or touch his car again!

Police officers who are put places to show a "presence"
Typically at high school football games & malls. They actually think they have authority because they boss around kids for standing in the grass.

A person who is invited to a party or other social activity simply as filler, and isn't really liked much by anyone there.
After Danny got into an argument with a friend of the host, she ended it by telling him that nobody wanted him there. He looked around and found no support, and so he left. He knew then that he was invited simply to be a background prop.
