Question:  How do you pretend that you are not bored in a video conferencing meeting?  I mean, what do you do?  I mean, it's not like you can play your asteroid game on your cell phone, twiddle your thumbs, play with your rubik's cube or play footsie under the table with a cute co-worker because you'll most likely be seen not only by all of your co-workers but by the boss.  I guess the only thing that a bored person in a video conference can do is to drink lots of coffee with horseradish and wheat germ so that they can excuse themselves to go to the bathroom where they can not only take a good 5 to 10 minute catnap but also take a good 30 to 45 minute crap.
