In English, one "pulls a [NAME]" if they do something another person is known to do.
In Spanish, one "does a [NAME as an adjective]", "hacer un [NAME]-ado/-eado".
If someone has "pulled a [YOUR NAME]", what would they have had to have done? 👀

So... Spanish would be literally translated as "Does a Name-y" or "Makes a Name-y"? 🤔
Hm, I kind of like that!
Pulls a Me...
Oh, I don't know. Something stupid and forgetful, probably. It's usually not anything good, when people say that! "Plans a vacation down to the last detail she'll never be able to afford and then realizes people were taking her seriously" maybe? "Gets too excited about a decrepit old house." <<< That one, definitely! 😂
!!! I love that second one! Now I need to find an excuse to use it... :)
@MLClark
It's funny, though, because in English (if we're translating directly... which maybe we are, maybe we aren't? I don't know! 😂 )
"Makes a name for themselves" means something totally different!
