52 is a slang term used to indicate the act of disappearing or leaving without a trace. It implies a sudden and complete disappearance without any explanation or warning.
This slang term is derived from the use of the number 52 in deck of cards. In a deck, the 52nd card is typically the last card, representing the end of the deck or pack. Similarly, when someone says they are “pulling a 52,” it means they are disappearing or leaving abruptly without leaving any evidence or trace behind.
Example 1: “I saw John at the party, but then he pulled a 52 and no one has heard from him since.”
Example 2: “She completely pulled a 52 on her responsibilities at work and didn’t show up for days.”
