Kabukimono 

From Genshin Impact and the most perfect thing to ever exist. The non traumatized version of Scaramouche, he's innocent, perfect, and does literally no wrong. He is my everything. He is adorable and deserves the world <3
Person A: Do you know Kabukimono?

Person B: Yes, he's absolutely perfect.

Theatre, artifice, fake, insincere, something done only for show. AKA lip service
Congress stated that mine safety would be a priority but I fear that it is just kabuki and nothing will happen.

Kabuki Speaker 

Japanese made speakers from the 60's through the 70's that had a minimum 15" woofer, a minimum 4-way cross-over, at least 6 individual drivers, in a box that is less than 3 cu ft or weighs less than 50lbs.


"For those wondering about the origin of the term, it had to do with the limited bandwidth and tinny sound that characterized the first versions of these speakers. As a friend said "You can play Led Zepplin though them and it comes out sounding like Kabuki music"."

Kabuki Speaker by M.X. September 3, 2004
Japanese theatre where only men were allowed to act, even female roles, until ban was recently lifted. Invented in order to allow peasants a theatre of their own, as going to nobles' theatre would result in either having their eyes gouged out or their ears ripped off. Performed in poses rather than fluid action. Often very depressing.
I wanted to see a kabuki production, but it's so expensive and I don't speak old-fashioned Japanese.

Showy posturing performed as an act of theater. Typically used by pundits to describe an empty political performance which serves to satisfy or distract an audience. The name refers to the Japanese tradition of Kabuki theater, eliciting imagery of heavily costumed characters performing sweeping gestures and holding exaggerated poses for an audience. The performance may appear as elaborate and sometimes strange (foreigners in drag).
While the public remained fixated on the Kabuki of the kind words and state visit by the charismatic leader, his administration was doubling down on trade violations and human rights abuses.

know the difference between your kabuki and your bukkake

The expression means that the person does not know basic obvious things. That person lacks common sense or experience in the subject under discussion.

The expression is Similar to "not knowing shit from shinola" or "not knowing your ass from your elbow".
The actress accused James Cameron of never having a female lead in his movies. Obviously She doesn't know the difference between her kabuki from her bukkake.
