Example:
1)We
leaned out of the car to wave at Sam; however, Sam was not in the car, so we played it off by sticking our hands on top of the car.
2)At an
orchestra concert, I put my
violin up too early so I played it off by scratching my chin with it.

1) To act as if something which has been brought up as a major occurance is really nothing special.
2) To escape
punishment or an uncomfortable situation by denying
allegations of
involvement, esp. by placing blame on another person
Example:
1) Sukisoya thought the nuclear
bombing of Hiroshima was tremendously horrible, but Gerard played it off as a necessary step for progress
2) Mrs.
Lowery accused me of stealing the test key, but I played it off on my
home boy Reggie

To act
indifferent when someone asks you about something or an uncomfortable situation presents itself.
Most often done when pretending something doesn't bother you that actually does.
The hip, less dramatic way of "being
empathetic"
