Pulling an Irene

Irene is the Romanian deity of procrastination, "pulling an Irene" means leaving something for the last minute and not doing it anyway, usually coming up with a lame excuse not to do something one should or was expected to do.

Originally a popular saying in Romania and loosely translated and popularised by the Romanian community in the UK.
When your friend cancels coming for drinks in the last minute with a lame excuse, you reply:

"Are you for real pulling an Irene on us? Not cool!"

To pull an Amy

When someone is the most hyped about a new plan (or something in the course of being established) but then, also the first to flake.

Unreliable, characterized by not following through on what he/she says (gets easily excited about things, and as a result over promises, only to underdeliver...)
“Gosh! X just pulled an Amy again! She (X) told me one of her colleagues went climbing, and that now she is definitely going to do it. But when I invited her for a session, she was ‘busy’”

Pulling a Brando

When you are in a heated fire fight in Apex Legends with another team and your teammate takes off out of fear, leaving you to fend them off by yourself. Then when confronting the teammate about what occured, he will not acknowledge that what he did was wrong and will then proceed to put the blame on you.
Oh come on, I need your help over here! Why are you Pulling a Brando? I'm about to die!

Oh Steven, this is the worst time to be pulling a Brando! Were down to the last squads!
