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)

dickstraction

Having too many available boys in the immediate or extended area distracting one from getting things done.

"I would be writing my paper in my boyfriend's dorm room, but he's such a dickstraction!"

"Jane didn't stay true to her boyfriend Johnny back home during her first semester in college because there were far too many dickstractions around campus... sorry Johnny."

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.
