You can't always have it by default, you have to change it all the time, but there's a way to appear offline before anyone knows you're there. Before you "Sign in", press the Xbox Guide button, go to Preferences if I recall correctly (it's somewhere on the last blade when you keep pressing right), then the first option on top (actually the only option available), finally tick the "Appear Offline" option.

I know the feeling.


That's what I usually do when I don't feel like dealing with people, I just can't do it fast enough before people see that I sign on.  I would just unplug my network cable except I'd like to do things like watch Netflix or get Mass Effect 2 DLC.
