The act of pulling out your cell phone after seeing someone you know but want to avoid conversing with them. The hope is that they see that you are busy on your phone, so they decide they shouldn't approach you. This must be done before the person notices that you in fact, saw them first.
I saw my old neighbor outside while I was checking the mail today. I pulled out my cell phone and started defensive dialing so that I wouldn't have to get stuck talking to him for the next 10 minutes.
Checked out. Not mentally/psychologically present or engaged with the present task or situation. Cares very little or not at all. Performing an activity/job in a perfunctory manner. Related to burnout.

Speak in Code around Mom and Dad. Use the PC, "butt dial," if your mom sees a "Booty Call" text.
Butt dial is when you mistakenly call someone. This normally happens when your phone is in your back pocket and you sit down and the phone app calls someone for you. They end up answering and getting annoyed because you called them and now your not answering while they are trying to talk to you. Not to be confused with a booty call.
