When you're unemployed and can't find enough jobs worth applying for to meet your minimum weekly quota to keep receiving unemployment benefits before the weekend. Therefore, on Friday, you apply to jobs that are out of state and/or that you're underqualified for so that you can keep receiving unemployment benefits and still enjoy the weekend as if you were working.
Jamal: "Tyrone, did you find at least 3 jobs worth applying to this week?"

Tyrone: "Nah. I found 1, but it's Fake Application Friday so I'll just apply to these 2 Director level jobs that I know I'll never get so I can at least enjoy the weekend."
