Used when describing what somebody has done or when
comparing how somebody imitated another. Its past tense is also very popular; pulled a.
It can also be used as a
temporary insult. Saying that somebody pulled a (whatever) doesn't mean that you
necessarily think they are whatever you said; it means that you think only what they did at that time was (whatever).
