Pronunciation: dys-lack-shun

Sentence: John was a severe dislaction when he showed up to the quarterly report meeting dressed up in a gorilla suit and screaming "Guerilla warfare, recruit the monkies!!" Needless to say, he was dragged away on possible terrorism charges and lost his job.

Etymology: distraction (getting other's attention away from the problem at hand) + slacker (one who is consistently lazy)
