sprinted
When a cell carrier holds your phone hostage because of a "Financial Eligibility Check" under the guise of "protecting" you, in case your phone was stolen. This makes it impossible to bring your phone to a new carrier until you pay off any outstanding charges. This brings you into a cycle of owing them into perpetuity if you wish to port your phone number AND device. If you buy a new phone, you lose the number. If you port the number, you can't use the phone for at least 30 days, even if there's no outstanding balances.
Yo, I ported my cell number, but the new carrier says I can't use my phone because of a Financial Eligibility Check. WTF?
Sucks.
What'll I do now?
Buy a new phone. You got sprinted, brah.

This can be performed as a simple one-person challenge, or be used as a practical joke by remaining off the floor undetected until the next user of said cubicle enters and the surprise is released.
Jake: I just used the toilet, and felt a dripping on my head, I looked up to see Sam Fisher himself about to shit on my head
Steve: That's the best performance of The Splinter Cell ever!

Whale

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.
