When a person has earphones in apparently listening to music, but in reality listening to other people's conversations, usually about how creepy that person is.
Other people think he's not paying attention because he's jamming to music, so it's a very affective illusion.
Usually employed by creepers, stalkers, or when a person happens to overhear something about themselves, in which they turn down or off their music to hear what is being said.
Another similar illusion is pretending to sleep. People then open up and start talking about things they may not while one is awake.
"I don't think we can talk right now. Jake looks like he's earphone phaking."
"I was earphone phaking the other day, and I heard Amanda likes Joe!"
Somebody that masturbates in a place or situation that is very obvious, but thinks that either nobody will notice or that it will be too awkward for others to say anything. Usually found on school trips, in group hostel dormitories, in prison or anywhere else you are forced to sleep in the same room as other people.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
An absolutely foolproof way to keep minors from viewing content deemed "too mature" for them to watch.
