Distracting

Something that is taking place to distract ones focus. More than likely a distracting girl.

A cute girl in a class room or work area such as an office can be distracting you from your work.

distracting from the real issue

When you're getting called out on your bullshit and you need to quickly derail the conversation, accuse your accusers of distracting from the real issue.

"Hey could you stop talking over women?"
"I can't believe you're distracting from the real issue, class. You make me sick."

distractivity

Distractivity is what you’re doing when you get distracted from what you should be doing. It's generally what you want to do, often what you need to do, and arguably, what you’ll do best.

John wasn't making much progress on the company's annual report, so he welcomed the distractivity of working on his website.

Distraction Cake

Something pleasant which draws attention from a situation which could be awkward or embarrassing for those involved. Distraction cake originated in British teen dramedy "Skins" where Emily Fitch produced a delicious chocolate cake, seemingly from thin air, in order to remove attention from Naomi Campbell who was being heckled about her sexuality - presumably as an act to show her undying love.

Cook: I know the cure
Naomi: The cure for what?
Cook: It's my cock
Naomi: What the hell are you talking about?
*Awkward glances and laughter*
Emily: Hey look what I made! (Produces delicious distraction cake)

Distraction

A person of the opposite gender which is not a significant other, but has enough "beyond friendship" feelings and possibilities attached to him/her that this person creates a major loss of productive time whenever s/he is available for contact.

The distraction is online. I won't get any homework done anytime soon.
