artificially busy

1) Being too busy to do anything else for a long time, but not actually accomplishing anything.

2) Being "busy" when somebody wants to hang out with you or sign you up for something, but really you're going to stay at home and count the ceiling tiles.

3) Being "busy" whenever somebody walks up to talk to you or to hide the fact that you are eavesdropping.

1) Being artificially busy is like being hamster in a cage, man!

2)
Person 1: Hey, wanna come over tonight and see my stamp collection? It's the biggest stamp collection outside of the European Union...
Person 2: Uh, sorry... gotta put cover sheets on all my TPS reports.
Person 1: TPS reports? Sounds like someone's artificially busy...

3) Dilbert, whenever Pointy Hair Bossy comes around.
