double-budded

(Adj.) To have earbuds placed in both ears at moderate to high volume in a workplace or social setting, in a bid to deliberately tune out others around you.

Earbuds may also be worn but not actually turned on, as a visual repellent to any social interaction.

"Stacy was double-budded while the new protocol was announced."

"Hey Chase..."
Chase, out of sight on far side of the room: "..."
"CHASE."
Chase: "..."
"...He must be double-budded."
