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.

pop up play

a portable privacy cube that "pops up" in a snap, literally. many uses include a private restroom while camping. Can also become an instant shower at the beach. Another use is a changing area for outdoor activities. has been used by utility companies around manholes for protection from the elements in rain, snow, basically it is protection from inclimate weather.

playing in public is so much safer now that I have the pop up play instant tent
