When you invent a whole alter ego to pretend to become romantically involved with so that an an ex or a stalker or anyone who is being generally pushy and invasive in your life will waste time investigating a non-existent person and leave you alone for a while.

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
