Playing up

Trying to make somebody feel 9 feet tall and invincible, or at least thinking you've made them feel that way.
The guy knew that the teacher's spy/teacher's pet was trying to play up to him even though the teacher's pet was not his pet or darling, so really it wasnt a good job of playing up, but he/she still thought that he/she was playing up to him and that he was going for it or falling for it for some reason. He also knew the teacher's pet well, so he didnt have to measure anything, since people dont change. Just like the walls on a building can warp and the measurements of the wall can change some, but the building is the same overall building it always was since it was built, even if their are additions, renovations, or parts missing, the overall building is the same building until it collapses or gets demolished, people also can seem different, seem to change form, but really they're the same overall people they were as kids. If they were a poser as a kid, they're still posing as something different all the time, appearing to change. People who think that everything needs to be measured to know anything about it, or to know it well are missing the point.

Play Surgeon

Just like playing Doctor (sex game), except that (at least) one participant is menstruating (on her period).
She invited me over to play surgeon-- do you still have that box of latex gloves we got from the free clinic?

Playing like Tiger Woods

If you are playing terrible golf, as of late, as in putting horribly or shanking your drive, hitting it in the rough, then you must be really playing bad golf. Add to that effect, you are deep in the trenches trying to get out. This may also apply to hitting the baseball (average is down) or jump shot is "bricking."
Yeh, my golf game has been in the dump...I'm like playing like Tiger Woods.

they aren't playing with a full deck

When adults have mental issues, whether diagnosed, or gone undiagnosed, that lead them to act out erratically, or not like a logical, pragmatic individual.
Example: "they aren't playing with a full deck."

Damien: I ain’t going after nobody! They are fully grown adults. If they choose to go out that door, mad, or whatever, so be it.

Jimmie: Well, they may be fully grown adults, but…

Felicity: (Cutting her father, Jimmie, off). But they aren’t playing with a full deck.
