The false sensation of feeling your cell phone vibrate in your pocket when you're suffering from textpectation or expecting a call from that certain girl (that will never actually call you back).

Get the phantom buzz mug.
when you wear a Blackberry or cell phone with a belt clip, and you think you feel it buzzing, even though you are not actually wearing it at the moment.
