To miss school, work, or other duties without permission or an excuse.

Plenty of people play hooky from work to go see a movie on opening day.

Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?

You say this dark/macabre humor phrase to lighten things up when both people have been discussing sad topics. You laugh a little bit because it is so bad to say and then you move on to talking about lighter subject things again. It is a segue (pronounced seg-way) / (a conversational bridge)from sad subjects back to lighter ones.

I find it very useful, although some people have not heard it before and they get confused and don't know what you are talking about, so you have to explain it to them. Then they laugh and you both move on to lighter subjects.

Wow, that's too bad that your friend's sister's hairdresser's brother got in a car accident and lost his pinky toe. (both people feel sad and there is silence and conversation is halted) and so another person says , "But other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play!" Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln? And that is a shocking and awful thing to say, but it makes people laugh because it is so shocking and awful. Do not say this though if something is really really sad, because it will not lighten things up and it will make people mad and hurt their feelings.

Neopets Role Play Boards

Full of fangirls, High School, scenefags, along with sparkly vampire or teens-injected-with-animal-DNA role plays involving Mary-Sue characters created by emo fags with no originality. These "original" characters tend to be carbon copies of one another and are usually ridiculously scene/emo. Typical descriptions for said character contain unnecessary details about this person's past and how they angst about their parents both dying in some bizarre tragic event.

Very few people can actually write even remotely well. And those who claim to be able to write are typically elitist douchebags who use ridiculous amounts of purple prose so they can go on about how their introduction filled with mindless fluff is over 20 posts long.

The few decent writers all flock to out of character boards and sit around jerking each other off in the "neoclique" talking about how great it is to be "Neofamous" while blissfully unaware of the fact that they are completely pathetic by taking role playing on a virtual pet site so seriously, and even more pathetic for taking out of character drama on a role play board on a virtual pet site so seriously.

The only real amusing thing to do is troll. Which is ridiculously easy to do, even if you make your trolling attempts painfully obviously people will still be completely oblivious to it.

Typical character found on the Neopets role play boards:
Name:Tarot
Age:17 years
Hair: His air is a dark black color mixed with small streaks of silver. They are very unnoticeable.
Eyes:His eyes are a a Hazel color mixed with light green.
Powers: He is part Raven, meaning he has wings and claws. He can also change into a full Raven, though thats all he can change in to.
History: Tarot was born to a poor farmer in the south. He was pretty much normal through his childhood, until he reached thirteen years. He began to develop nasty backaches and sore hands. eventually, it eveolved into what he is today. He left his parents soon after, knowing they would despise him.
Personality: He is the Silent type, Gentle and somewhat angry;though he doesn't show it.

playback

a term used to describe the performance of the singers/performers when musical groups use a pre-recorded track and lip/instrument-sync on stage in front of the audience

Instead of actually performing the song, the upcoming rock group used playback for fear of screwing up their first live performance.

Play The Game

When you take a risk, any risk you are playing the game.
When it comes to school playing the game is when you do not do your homework.

Max: Man did you play the game last night for math?
Nick: Yeah I played the game, didn't do my homework.
Max: I'm not going to be surprise if you fail the test we did today.
Nick: Yep shouldn't have played the game.
