Semitasking is what we are actually doing when we think we are multitasking. A robot multitasks. We talk while we burn the pancakes.
Paying distracted attention to three things for fifteen minutes doesn't equal full attention for five minutes to each of three things.
Semitasking gives the illusion of versatility and a sense of accomplishment without the results of either.

Willfully semitasking on the drive to work, she had to retrieve her lipstick from her sinus cavity after running into the car stopped in front of her.

'Seize the dick.'
Something worn on a t-shirt at Catholic school; if asked, "Dude, shake my hand." Otherwise an open invitation.

'Seize the dick.'
Something you wear on a t-shirt at Catholic school and when anyone asks you say, 'Dude, shake my hand.' Otherwise an open invitation.

That low, raspy voice girls use when they are being 'serious,' or when they want to be taken seriously, especially among themselves, especially but not only at the ends of sentences. If the information demands it or if the personal style of the speaker is a monotone anyway whole sentences can be intoned in 'girl growl.' There is no pitch on these sounds, just a low rasp.
"Then he was like 'no way' and she was like" breath quote, "'whatever,'" she girl-growled, looking very intently over her pink, pointed Barbie-glasses straight into Tiffany's eyes.
