Vocoder-esque effect on vocals you get when using Autotune with a fast response. Works better if the singer has almost perfect pitch as having bumpy pitch can make it modulate weirdly and just give the obvious message of "YOU CAN'T SING".
Kayne West is the notorious Daft Punk-esque fauxcoder expert.
Person 1: I got this awesome vocoder effect when I used pitch correction on my vocals.

Person 2: Can't you have just used a vocoder instead?

Person 1: Well, it's a fauxcoder then!

when the front of a building (let's say usually an apartment complex or a house that is now a rental property) is designed to look imposing or grand when viewed head on, but when viewed critically the rest of the building doesn't live up to the first impression.
Sure, the place I thought about renting had a nice fauxcade with decorative window guards, brickwork, flashy cornices, and elaborate drainspouts, but the sides of the place were covered in cheap, cracked vinyl siding.

fauxdercoat 

To spray paint a surface from at least two feet away creating a mist of paint that evenly distributes color and creates a gritty satin texture similar to powdercoating.
I fauxdercoated my car parts so it looks like it was professionally powdercoated - mainly to save time and money - but also to hide imperfections due to lack of paint prep, skill, and any patience to do it right. So I tell myself I fauxdercoat because it’s temporary and I’ll powdercoat it later for reals - but we all know that shit excuse is just famous last words.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
