When someone really screws up and you think there's going to be hell to pay but they somehow get away with it.
It comes from Admiral Piett in Star Wars. After the millenium falcon goes into hyperspace in the Empire Strikes Back, you just know Vader is going to strangle Piett like all the others who "failed him". But... he doesn't.
(Piett survives until the next movie, finaly dying when a rebel A-wing fighter crashes through the bridge of his ship)

Get the piett mug.The epicness and heart of all of Hawaii. A place where sticking thousands of plastic forks in the front lawn is acceptable and an entire class period can be based around ninjas vs pirates. A place where so many people call home and lives are touched. A place where the music teachers catch phrase is, "strong like bull" and where a teacher can pose with a plastic chicken and not be a wierdo (officially).J A place where seniors aren't voted, "most likely to succeed" or "most likely to become an actress" but "most likely to get a tattoo of Johnny Depp with a Canadian Flag" or "most likely to win a Nobel prize and misplace it". A place where you can show up in the French classroom and find your class and teacher discussing robot butts. But most of all, it is a place where girls can find their spirit and show their TRUE colors.
Person 1: What school do you go to?
Person 2: La Pietra.
Person 1: That school is gay.
Person 2: Gay has just turned into the best word in the English language.

Get the La Pietra mug.Piett was a loyal Imperial officer aboard Darth Vader's flagship, the Executor, during the Hoth campaign. As an attentive Captain aboard the Super Star Destroyer, he was more creatively minded than his by-the-manual superior, Admiral Ozzel. After Ozzel committed a fatal mistake during the hunt for the Rebels, Darth Vader promoted Piett to Admiral in his place.
Piett served in this capacity during the Battle of Endor. He perished aboard his vessel when a wayward A-wing starfighter crashed into the Executor's bridge.
