Pulling a Shires

"Pulling a Shires" is any act of doucheyness in a relationship such as but not limited to: breaking up with someone in a text message, calling your girlfriend while high on cocaine at 3am, losing your job because you drink too much, making your girlfriend take the bus to see you because you don't feel like picking her up, making your girlfriend pay for everything because you're a slack ass loser.

Girl 1: "What happened between Gina and Rick?"
Girl 2: "He broke up with her in a text message!"
Girl 1: "Ooooh he was totally "Pulling a Shires."
Girl 2: "I know, what a douche!"
